These telephones are now connected as
external devices as shown on page 54,
because they are connected to the fax
machine via the T-connector.
Using a non-Brother cordless
external handset
If your non-Brother cordless telephone is
connected to the telephone line cord (see
page 54) and you typically carry the cordless
handset elsewhere, it is easier to answer
calls during the Ring Delay.
If you let the machine answer first, you will
have to go to the machine so you can press
Tel/R to transfer the call to the cordless
handset.

Fax Receive Code
If you answer a fax call on an extension or
external telephone, you can tell your machine
to receive it by pressing the fax receive code
l51. Wait for the chirping sounds then
replace the handset. (See Fax
Detect on page 47.)
Telephone Answer Code
If you receive a voice call and the machine is

pick up the call on an extension telephone
you can turn the F/T ring off by pressing #51
(make sure you press this between the rings).
