You can register only one Distinctive Ring pattern with the fax machine.
Some ring patterns cannot be registered.
The fax machine will answer only calls to its registered number.
If using an external TAD to answer only the main number, the fax
machine must be in MANUAL mode.
In FAX/TEL or FAX ONLY mode, the fax machine will answer all
numbers on the phone line.
The first two rings are silent on the fax machine.
