Set distinctive ring

Ring-pattern or distinctive-ring service is available through some local telephone companies. The
service allows you to have more than one telephone number on a single line. Each telephone number
has a unique ring pattern, so that you can answer voice calls and the product can answer fax calls.

If you subscribe to a ring-pattern service with a telephone company, you must set the product to
answer the correct ring pattern. Not all countries/regions support unique ring patterns. Contact the
telephone company to determine if this service is available in your country/region.

NOTE:

If you do not have ring-pattern service and you change the ring-pattern settings to

something other than the default,

All Rings

, the product might not be able to receive faxes.

The settings are as follows:

All Rings

: The product answers any calls that come through the telephone line.

Single

: The product answers any calls that produce a single-ring pattern.

Double

: The product answers any calls that produce a double-ring pattern.

Triple

: The product answers any calls that produce a triple-ring pattern.

Double and Triple

: The product answers any calls that produce a double-ring or triple-ring

pattern.
