●
Automatic

recognition of special fax tones.
●
TAM
: The product does not automatically answer the call. Instead, it waits until it detects the fax
tone.
●
Fax/Tel
: The product answers incoming calls immediately. If it detects the fax tone, it processes
the call as a fax. If it does not detect the fax tone, it creates an audible ring to alert you to answer
the incoming voice call.
●
Manual
: The product never answers calls. You must start the fax-receiving process yourself,
either by touching the
Start Fax
button on the control panel or by picking up a telephone that is
connected to that line and dialing 1-2-3.
