Set distinctive ring
Ring-pattern or distinctive-ring service is available through some local telephone companies. The service
allows you to have more than one telephone number on a single line. Each telephone number has a unique
ring pattern, so that you can answer voice calls and the product can answer fax calls.
If you subscribe to a ring-pattern service with a telephone company, you must set the product to answer the
correct ring pattern. Not all countries/regions support unique ring patterns. Contact the telephone company
to determine if this service is available in your country/region.
NOTE: If you do not have ring-pattern service and you change the ring-pattern settings to something other
than the default (All Standard Rings), the product might not be able to receive faxes.
The settings are as follows:
●
Ring Pattern Detection: Turn o or on the product's ring pattern detection capability.
●
All Standard Rings: The product answers any calls that come through the telephone line.
●
Single: The product answers any calls that produce a single-ring pattern.
●
Double: The product answers any calls that produce a double-ring pattern.
●
Triple: The product answers any calls that produce a triple-ring pattern.
●
Double and Triple: The product answers any calls that produce a double-ring or triple-ring pattern.
