Voice calls will start the F/T Ring to tell you to pick up the line. The F/T Ring is a fast pseudo/double-ring made by your machine.
Chapter 5 Receive Mode settings Ring Delay The Ring Delay sets the number of times the machine rings before it answers in Fax Only or Fax/Tel mode. If you have external or extension telephones on the same line as the machine, keep the ring delay setting of 4 rings. (See Using external and extension telephones on page 39 and Easy Receive on page 31.) a b Press Menu. c Press a or b to choose Setup Receive. Press OK. Press a or b to choose Fax. Press OK.

6 Telephone services and external devices Telephone services 6 Your machine supports the Caller ID and Distinctive Ring subscriber telephone services that some telephone companies offer. Get the Distinctive Ring service from your telephone company. Distinctive Ring is a feature of your Brother machine that allows a person with one line to receive fax and voice calls through two different phone numbers on that one line.
Telephone services and external devices Distinctive Ring 6 Do you have Voice Mail? If you have Voice Mail on the telephone line that you will install your new machine on, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the machine will conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, the Distinctive Ring feature allows you to use more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the machine can work together without any problems.
Chapter 6 NOTE Ring Pattern #1 is often called Short-Short and is the most commonly used. If the ring pattern you received is not on this chart, call your telephone company and ask for one that is shown. The machine will only answer calls to its registered number. The first two rings are silent on the machine. This is because the machine must “listen” to the ring pattern to compare it to the pattern that was registered. Other telephones on the same line will ring.
Telephone services and external devices Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) 6 If you have questions about how to connect your machine to the VoIP system, call your VoIP provider. VoIP is a type of phone system that uses an Internet connection instead of a traditional telephone line. Telephone providers frequently bundle VoIP together with Internet and cable services. After you have connected your machine to the VoIP system, press Hook to verify that the machine has a dial tone.
Chapter 6 Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device) • If you do not subscribe to the Distinctive Ring service: You must plug your TAD into the EXT. jack of your machine. If your TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your machine and the TAD will try to control the telephone line. (See the illustration.) 6 You may choose to connect an external answering device.
Telephone services and external devices Connections 6 The external TAD must be plugged into the jack labeled EXT. Your machine cannot work correctly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack (unless you are using Distinctive Ring). a b c Place both hands under the plastic tabs on both sides of the machine to lift the scanner cover into the open position. Plug the telephone line cord from the telephone wall jack into the jack labeled LINE. Remove the protective cap (1) from the jack labeled EXT.
Chapter 6 Multi-line connections (PBX) We suggest you ask the company who installed your PBX to connect your machine. If you have a multi-line system, we suggest you ask the installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the machine being activated each time the system receives telephone calls. If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, we recommend that you set the Receive Mode to Manual.
Telephone services and external devices Using external and extension telephones 6 Using extension telephones If you let the machine answer first, you will have to go to the machine so you can press Hook to send the call to the cordless handset. If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you can take the call at an extension telephone by pressing the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1. (See F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on page 30.
