The external TAD must be plugged into the 
jack labeled EXT. Your machine cannot work 
properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack 
(unless you are using Distinctive Ring).

a

Plug the telephone line cord from the 
telephone wall jack into the jack labeled 
LINE.

b

Plug the telephone line cord from the 
external TAD into the jack labeled EXT. 
(Make sure this cord is connected to the 
TAD at the TAD's telephone line jack, 
and not its handset jack.)

c

Set your external TAD to four rings or 
less. (The machine's Ring Delay setting 
does not apply.)

d

Record the outgoing message on your 
external TAD.

e

Set the TAD to answer calls.

f

Set the Receive Mode to 

Manual

 with 

Easy Receive turned on.
(See 

Choosing the Receive Mode

 

on page 42.)

Timing is important in recording this 
message. The message sets up the ways to 
handle both manual and automatic fax 
reception.

a

Record 5 seconds of silence at the 
beginning of your message. (This allows 
your machine time to listen for the fax 
CNG tones of automatic transmissions 
before they stop.)

b

Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.

c

End your 20-second message by giving 
your Fax Receive Code for people 
sending manual faxes. For example: 
‘After the beep, leave a message or 
send a fax by pressing 

l

5 1

 and 

Start

.’

Note

We recommend beginning your OGM with 
an initial 5-second silence because the 
machine cannot hear fax tones over a 
resonant or loud voice. You may try 
omitting this pause, but if your machine 
has trouble receiving, then you must re-
record the OGM to include it.
