Fax reception: EXPERT
As already described in chapter 4 The fax switch, several standard fax reception modes are available. Your fax machine
is optimally set when you select one of these modes. Nevertheless, in EXPERT mode you can set the ringing parameters
of your fax machine and other devices yourself:
You are able to set the total number of rings enabling you to control how many times your fax machine and additional
phones ring when receiving an incoming telephone call. Also, depending upon the configuration serial or parallel (see
chapter 4 The fax switch) you will be able to define how many rings are toll free for the calling party or how many times
the additional phones will ring. For units with a built-in answering device, you can also define whether or not to mute the
loudspeaker while the caller is leaving a message.

configuration is parallel the toll free rings of your fax machine must be set to a higher level than the rings of your answering
device. Set your fax machine in accordance with the table below:
