How to Use an External TAD with the Fax

When you have a Telephone Answering Device on the fax phone line, the TAD will answer all the
incoming calls. Your Brother fax machine will listen in on the line for fax CNG tones. If it hears
them, it will take over the call and receive the fax message. If it does not hear fax tones, it will
let the TAD continue playing the outgoing message so the caller can leave a voice message.

The TAD must answer within 4 rings (2 rings are recommended). The fax machine can not hear
the CNG calling tones until the TAD answers the call. When the Ring Delay is set for 4 rings, only
8-10 seconds of CNG calling tones are left for the “handshake”.  So you must strictly follow the
instructions for recording your OGM.

You must erase the incoming messages frequently on your TAD. When the TAD’s memory is full
it will not answer any incoming calls (fax or voice).

Set your fax machine’s answer mode to TAD (Fax and F/T lights on).
