How DRPD responds to calls

When there is an incoming call, the FAXPHONE checks the incoming ring pat

tern and determines the type of pattern being received. The FAXPHONE may

require up to 10 seconds to determine the pattern type, and during this time the

FAXPHONE does not ring. After the pattern is detected, the FAXPHONE reacts

according to how you registered the setting.
