To Use
When a person answers a call and hears a fax machine signaling on the other
end, the person can transfer the call to extension X—the fax machine
extension. To send a fax transmission, simply lift the handset on the fax
machine—an outside line will be automatically selected.
To Program
1. If extension X is the key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign
all lines to extension X.
If extension X is a pooled extension, use Pool Extension Assignment
(#314) to assign the pools you want the fax machine to use to extension X.
Also use Line Assignment (#301) to assign any individual lines you want
the fax machine to use to extension X.
2. If extension X is a key extension, set Automatic Line Selection for
extension X to line A, B, C,....
If extension X is a pooled extension, set Automatic Line Selection for
extension X to Pool D, line A, B, C,....
3. Set Line Ringing for all lines and pools on extension X to No Ring.
4. Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned.
5. Make sure extension X is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension,
Pickup Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502), Night
Service Group Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).
6. To monitor the fax machine, use Fax Machine Extensions (#601) to
identify extension X as a fax extension and program a Fax Management
button by programming the fax machine extension number on an Auto Dial
button.
