Radio Shack AFX-300 - Manual (Page 24)

SWITCHING FAX CALLS MANUALLY
Using either a touch-tone or rotary (pulse) phone, you can
manually set the AFX-300 to accept a transmission from a fax
machine that does not sound a normal fax alert tone.
Note: The following procedures apply only to incoming faxes.
Using a Touch-Tone Phone
During your conversation or when the answering machine an-
swers a call, either you or the caller must press 1, #, then 1 on
a touch-tone key pad to activate your fax machine/fax modem.
After the code is entered, the sender of the fax must press his/
her fax machine’s SEND button, then both parties must hang
up their handsets.
Notes:
• If either party presses a wrong key, wait about 10 sec-
onds before trying again.
• You can use your phone’s and # keys for other func-
tions, such as computer banking, but the AFX-300 acti-
vates your fax machine/fax modem only when you press
1, #, and 1 in that order.
