F/T Ring Time
(Fax/Tel mode only)

If you set the Receive Mode to
Fax/Tel
, you
need to decide how long the machine will
signal you with its special pseudo/double-ring
when you have a voice call. If it's a fax call,
the machine receives the fax.
This pseudo/double-ring happens after the
initial ringing from the telephone company.
Only the machine rings and no other
telephones on the same line will ring with the
special pseudo/double-ring. However, you
can still answer the call on any telephone on
the same line as the machine. (See
