Brother mfc-t800 Basic User's Manual page 39

NOTE
Ring Pattern #1 is often called Short-Short
and is the most commonly used.
If the ring pattern you received is not on
this chart, call your telephone company
and ask for one that is shown.
 The machine will only answer calls to its
registered number.
 The first two rings are silent on the
machine. This is because the machine
must "listen" to the ring pattern to compare
it to the pattern that was registered. Other
telephones on the same line will ring.
 If you program the machine correctly, it
will recognize the registered ring pattern of
the "fax number" within 2 ring patterns and
then answer with fax tones. When the
"voice number" is called, the machine will
not answer.

Registering the Distinctive Ring
pattern
Very Important!
After you have set the Distinctive Ring feature
to On, your Distinctive Ring number will
receive faxes automatically. You will see D/R
when you press FAX and Manual as the
Receive Mode setting. You cannot change
the Receive Mode from D/R (Manual) to
another Receive Mode while Distinctive Ring
is set to On. This ensures the Brother
machine will only answer the Distinctive Ring
number and will not interfere when your main
telephone number is called.
