About fax machines
Custom features
Do you have BT’s Call Minder on the phone line?
If you have Call Minder on the phone line where you will install your
new fax machine, there is a strong possibility that Call Minder and
the fax machine may conflict with each other while receiving
incoming calls.
Why should there be problems?
Since both the fax machine and Call Minder will pick up the call
after the number of rings you have set, each of them has the ability
to keep the other from receiving calls.
For example, if Call Minder is set to answer after two rings and the
fax machine is set to answer after four, Call Minder will stop the fax
machine from receiving faxes.
If you set Call Minder and the fax machine to answer after the same
number of rings, there is no way of knowing which one will answer
first. It is important to remember that neither Call Minder nor the fax
machine can pass the call back to the other after the call has been
answered.
How can you avoid possible problems?
A very good way to avoid problems like the one mentioned, is to
get a second phone number on your present phone line.
Many people with Call Minder choose this service, which is called
Another way to avoid possible problems is to replace Call Minder
with an answering machine. Your fax machine is designed to work
with an answering machine or TAD (telephone answering device).
1 - 7 Introduction
Fax tones and handshake
When someone is sending a fax, the fax machine sends fax calling
tones (CNG tones). These are quiet, intermittent beeps every
4-seconds. You’ll hear them after you dial and press Fax Start and
they will continue for about 60 seconds after dialling. During that
time, the sending machine must begin the “handshake” with the
receiving machine.
Each time you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you are
sending CNG tones over the phone line. You’ll soon learn to listen
for these quiet beeps each time you answer a phone on your fax
line, so you will know if you are receiving a fax message.
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tones, which are
loud, chirping sounds. A receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds
over the phone line, and the LCD shows RECEIVE.
If the fax machine is set to the FAX ONLYmode, it will answer every
call automatically with fax receiving tones. If the other person
hangs up, the fax machine will continue to send the “chirps” for
about 40 seconds, and the LCD continues to show RECEIVE. To
cancel the receiving, press Stop/Exit.
The fax ‘handshake’ is the time in which the sending machine’s
CNG tones and the receiving machines “chirps” overlap. This must
be for at least 2 to 4 seconds, so the fax machines can understand
how each is sending and receiving the fax. The handshake cannot
begin until the call is answered, and the CNG tones only last for
about 60 seconds after the number is dialled. So it is important for
the receiving machine to answer the call in as few rings as
possible.
When you have an external Telephone Answering Device
(TAD) on your fax line, your TAD will decide the number of
rings before the call is answered.
Pay special attention to the directions for connecting a TAD in
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.

You can connect a separate telephone as shown in the diagram
below.
.
Extension

Telephone
(Example for UK)
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the LCD shows
EXT. TEL IN USEand, 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 Tel (FAX-T104 only) or Speaker Phone
(FAX-T106 only).
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 doesn’t 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.

Recording outgoing message (OGM) on an external
TAD
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets
up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.
1
Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your
message. (This allows the fax machine time to listen for the
fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)
2
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5-second
silence because the fax machine cannot hear fax tones over
a resonant or loud voice. You may try omitting this pause, but
if the fax machine has trouble receiving, then you must
re-record the OGM to include it.
Introduction 1 - 10
Using extension telephones (For U.K. only)
It may be that your premises are already wired with parallel
extension telephones, or you intend to add extension telephones
to your line, in addition to your fax machine. While the simplest
arrangement is straightforward parallel connection, there are some
reasons as to why this arrangement will cause unsatisfactory
service, the most obvious of which is inadvertent interruption of a
facsimile transmission by someone picking up an extension
telephone in order to make an outgoing call. Additionally, fax
receive may not operate reliably in such a simple configuration.
This fax machine may also be set to make a delayed transmission
(i.e. a transmission at a pre-set time). This pre-set job may coincide
with someone picking up an extension handset.
Such problems can easily be eliminated however, if you arrange
modification of your extension wiring circuit, such that extension
devices are connected “downstream” of your fax machine, in a
master/slave configuration. In such a configuration, this fax
machine can always detect whether a telephone is in use, thus it
will not attempt to seize the line during that time. This is known as
“telephone off-hook detection.”
The inadvisable configuration is shown in figure 1 below, and the
recommended master/slave configuration is shown in figure 2.
This new connection configuration can be arranged by contacting
BT, Kingston upon Hull Telecommunications, your PABX
maintainer or a qualified telephone installation company as
appropriate. Simply explained, the extension telephone circuit
should be terminated on a normal modular plug (BT 431A style),
which in turn should be inserted into the modular socket of the
white “T”-shaped connector provided as part of the line cord
assembly.

1 - 11 Introduction
Multi-Line connections (PABX)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often
relatively simple to connect the fax machine to a key system or a
PABX (Private Automatic Branch Exchange), we suggest that you
contact the company that installed your telephone system and ask
them to connect the fax machine for you. It is advisable to have a
separate line for the fax machine.
If the fax machine is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask
your installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This
prevents the unit from being activated each time a telephone call is
received.
If you are installing the fax machine to work with a
PABX
1
It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all
circumstances with a PABX. Any cases of difficulty should be
reported first to the company that handles your PABX.
2
If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard
operator, it is recommended that the Receive Mode be set to
MANUAL. All incoming calls should initially be regarded as
telephone calls.
Custom features on your phone line
If you have BT Call Minder, Call Waiting, RingMaster, an
answering service, an alarm system or other custom feature on
one phone line it may create a problem with the operation of your

Setting the Station ID
You should store your name or company name and fax number so
they print on all fax pages that you send. The telephone number
will appear only on cover pages and call back messages.
It is important that you enter the fax and telephone numbers in the
internationally standardised format, i.e. in accordance with the
following strict sequence:
■ The “+” (plus) character (by pressing
key)
■ Your Country Code (e.g. “44” for the United Kingdom, “41” for
Switzerland)
■ Your local area code minus any leading “0” (“9” in Spain)
■ A space
■ Your number on the local exchange, using spaces to aid
readability as appropriate.
As an example, if the fax machine is installed in the United
Kingdom and the same line is to be used for both fax and voice
calls, and your national telephone number is 0161 444 5555, then
you must set the fax and telephone number parts of your station ID
as: +44 161 444 5555.

PABX and TRANSFER
The fax machine is initially set to be connected with PSTN (Public

central telephone system or Private Automatic Branch Exchange
(PABX). Your fax machine can be connected to most types of
PABX. The fax machine’s recall feature supports timed break recall
only (TBR). TBR will work with most PABX systems allowing you
to gain access to an outside line, or transfer calls to another
extension. The feature works when the R key is pressed.
You can program an R keypress as part of a number stored in
a One-Touch or Speed-Dial location. When programming the
One-Touch or Speed-Dial number (Menu/Set, 6, 1 or 6, 2)
press R first (the screen displays “!”), then enter the telephone

Polling
Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine.
You can use the fax machine to ‘poll’ other machines, or you can
have someone poll the fax machine.
Everyone who is involved in Polling needs to set up their fax
machines for Polling. When someone polls the fax machine to
receive a fax, they pay for the call. If you poll someone’s fax
machine to receive a fax, you pay for the call.
Some fax machines do not respond to the Polling feature.
Secure Polling
Secure Polling is a way to keep your documents and others from
falling into the wrong hands while the machine is set up for polling.
You can use Secure Polling only with another Brother fax machine.
Anyone who polls to receive a fax must enter the polling secure
code.

Telephone Services
Your fax machine supports the Caller ID and BT Call Sign (For U.K.
only) telephone services offered by some telephone companies.
Caller ID (Caller IDentification) (U.K. only)
Caller ID is a telephone service that allows the subscriber to see a
display of the caller’s phone number as the telephone rings. It is a
fast way to screen your calls. You can respond quickly to calls you
missed, because Caller IDs are received and stored in your
machine’s memory. In addition to the standard Caller ID features,
you can select a Caller ID and have your machine dial the number
for you.
■ You will need to speak to your telephone company if you
want to apply for the Caller ID Service.
■ To PABX Users:
Calling line identification signals are not generally
delivered to your Brother fax machine if it is connected
behind a private automatic branch exchange (PABX)
system or other call routing device.
Advantages of Caller ID
For Business
All businesses profit from a quicker response to customer calls.
At Home
Residential customers can protect themselves from unwanted
calls by seeing the callers name or number before they answer.
Set the Caller ID to ON
If you have BT Caller ID on your line, then this function should be

How Does the Caller ID Work?
The Caller ID Appears on the Display When Your
Telephone Rings
As your telephone rings, the screen displays the caller’s phone
number. If the caller’s name is stored in your machine as a
Speed-Dial, or One-Touch dial, the caller’s name will be displayed.
Once you pick up the handset, the caller’s ID disappears.
■ If # UNAVAILABLEappears on the display, it means that
the call came from outside your caller ID service area.
■ If # WITHHELDappears on the display, it means the caller
intentionally blocked the transmission of his/her ID.
■ If no caller ID was transmitted to your fax machine,
PICK UP PHONEwill remain on the display.
The Caller ID is Stored in Your Machine’s Memory
The machine can store a maximum of the last 30 incoming caller
IDs in the memory, along with the time and date of reception. The
31st call will cause the oldest ID to be erased.
The Caller ID information stored in the memory can be used for the
following.
■ Selecting a Caller ID from the Memory for Call Reply.
You can scroll through the Caller IDs on the display and select
■ Printing the Caller ID List.
You can review calls you received by checking the Caller IDs in
memory. This report will list the Date, Time, Phone Number
(Caller ID), and type of call (Comment).
Please set up the number of rings to more than 02in the Ring

BT Call Sign (U.K. only)
This fax machine feature lets you use the BT Call Sign subscriber
service which allows you to have at least two separate telephone
numbers on one phone line. Each phone number has its own
distinctive ringing pattern, so you know which phone number is
ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number
for your machine.
Your fax machine has a BT Call Sign compatible distinctive ringing
function, allowing you to dedicate a second phone number (on the
same phone line) just for receiving faxes.
You can switch BT Call Sign off temporarily, then turn it back
on. When you get a new fax number, make sure you reset this
function. This fax machine will automatically answer incoming
calls that use your new fax number.
When you set the BT Call Sign feature to ON, the receive
mode is set to MANUALautomatically. You cannot change the
receive mode to any other mode while the BT Call Sign
feature is set to on.

If the problem continues, call the telephone company
to check your phone line.
Handling Incoming Calls
Double-ring in
FAX/TEL mode
The fax machine knows the incoming call is not a fax
so it is signaling you to answer the telephone call. Pick
up the fax machine’s handset or answer from an
extension phone, and then press the fax machine’s
Telephone Answer Code (default setting is #51).
Transferring a call If you have answered at the fax machine’s handset,
to the fax machine press Fax Start and hang up immediately.
If you answered at an extension phone, press your
three-digit Fax Receive Code (default setting is 51).
When the fax machine answers, hang up.
The fax machine
“hears” voice as
fax tone
If the fax machine is set to Fax Detect ON, it is more
sensitive to sounds. The fax machine may mistakenly
interpret certain voices or music on the line as a calling
fax machine and respond with fax receiving tones.
Deactivate the fax by pressing #51 if you are at an
extension phone or press Stop/Exit if you are at the
fax machine or an external phone.
Try avoiding this problem by turning Fax Detect to OFF.
Custom features
on a single line
If you have Call Waiting, Voice Mail, an alarm system
or any other custom feature on a single phone line with
the fax machine, it may create a problem sending or
receiving fax data.
For example: If you are sending or receiving a fax
message while a custom feature signal comes through
on the line, the signal can temporarily interrupt or
disrupt the fax data. Your fax machine’s ECM feature
should help overcome this problem. This condition is
related to the telephone system industry and is
common to all devices that send and receive data on a
single, shared line with custom features. If avoiding a
slight interruption is crucial to your business, we
recommend a separate phone line with no custom
features.
