ECM (Error Correction Mode)
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the fax machine to check a fax transmission while it is in progress. ECM transmissions are only possible between machines that both have this feature. If they do, you may send and receive fax messages that are continuously being checked by the fax machine. The fax machine must have enough memory for this feature to work.

Connections

Connecting an external telephone
You can connect a separate telephone (or telephone answering device) directly to your fax machine as shown in the diagram below. Connect the telephones line cord to the jack labeled EXT. in the side of the fax machine.

Extension Telephone

External Telephone
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the LCD shows EXT. TEL IN USE, and, if the fax handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect the call on the external phone and switch to the fax, lift the handset and press Hook.
Connecting an external telephone answering device (TAD) Sequence
You may choose to connect an answering device. However, when you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the fax machine, the TAD answers all calls and the fax machine listens for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the fax machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesnt hear CNG tones, the fax machine lets the TAD continue playing your outgoing message so your caller can leave you a voice message. The TAD must answer within four rings (the recommended setting is two rings). The fax machine cannot hear CNG tones until the TAD has answered the call, and with four rings there are only 8 to 10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax handshake. Make sure you carefully follow the instructions in this manual for recording your outgoing message. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external answering machine if it exceeds four rings. If you do not receive all your faxes, you must reset the setting on your external TAD to four rings or less.
If you subscribe to your telephone companys Distinctive Ring service: You may connect an external TAD to a separate wall jack only if you subscribe to your telephone companys Distinctive Ring service, have registered the distinctive ring pattern on the fax machine, use that number as a fax number and set your fax machines Receive mode to MANUAL. The recommended setting is four rings on the external TAD when you have the telephone companys Distinctive Ring Service. If you do not subscribe to Distinctive Ring service: You must plug your TAD into the EXT. jack of the fax machine. If your TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your fax machine and the TAD will try to control the phone line. (See illustration on page 1-10.)

Menu table

You can probably program the fax machine without the Users Guide if you use the Menu table that begins on page 3-3. These pages will help you understand the menu selections and options that are found in the fax machine programs. You can program the fax machine by pressing Menu/Set, followed by the menu numbers. For example to set RESOLUTION to FINE: Press Menu/Set, 3, 4 and or to select FINE. Press Menu/Set.
