    Introduction 
    Using This Manual 
    Thank you for purchasing a Brother fax machine (FAX). This fax machine has been 
    designed to be simple to use, with LCD screen prompts to guide you through 
    functions. However, you can use your fax machine to its fullest potential by taking a 
    few minutes to read this manual. 
    Finding Information  
    All chapter headings and subheadings are listed in the Table of Contents. You will be 
    able to find information about a specific feature or function by checking the Index at 
    the back of this manual. Also, throughout this manual, youÕll see special symbols 
    alerting you to important information, cross-references, and warnings. Illustrations of 
    some screen displays also help you choose the correct key-presses. 
    About Fax Machines 
    If youÕre a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little mysterious. 
    YouÕll soon get used to the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and be able to send 
    and receive faxes easily.  
    Additionally, your fax machine has a Help Key. Press  
    Copy/Help 
     and then press  
    Start 
     to print a list of basic operational steps and functions. 
    						
    							 
    INTRODUCTION   
     
    1 - 2
     
    T7BASE-US-FM5.5 
    Fax Tones and Handshake 
    When someone is sending a fax, the fax machine sends fax calling tones (CNG 
    tones)Ñsoft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. YouÕll hear them when you dial 
    and press  
    Start 
    , and they continue for about 40 seconds after dialing. During that time, 
    the sending machine must begin the ÒhandshakeÓ with the receiving machine. Each 
    time you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over the 
    phone line. YouÕll soon learn to listen for these soft beeps each time you answer a 
    phone on your fax line, so you know if you are receiving a fax message.
    The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tonesÑloud, chirping sounds. A 
    receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds over the phone line, and the screen displays 
    RECEIVE. If your fax machine is set to the FAX ONLY Mode, it will answer every 
    call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the other party hangs up, your fax 
    machine continues to send the ÒchirpsÓ for about 40 seconds, and the screen continues 
    to display ÒRECEIVE.Ó To cancel the receiving mode, press  
    Stop 
    .
    When your fax machine answers in FAX/TEL Mode, the fax machine listens for CNG 
    tones and then responds with receiving tones.
    The fax ÒhandshakeÓ is the time in which the sending machineÕs CNG tones and the 
    receiving machines ÒchirpsÓ overlap. This must be for at least 2 to 4 seconds, so the 
    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 40 
    seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, itÕs important for the receiving machine 
    to answer the call in as few rings as possible. 
    ECM (Error Correction Mode) 
    The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the fax machine to check the integrity 
    of a fax transmission while it is in progress. ECM transmissions are possible only 
    between machines that both have the ECM feature. If they do, you may send and 
    receive fax messages that are continuously checked for their integrity.
    Sufficient memory must be available in your fax machine for this feature to work. 
    When you have an external telephone answering device (TAD) on your fax line, your 
    TAD will determine the number of rings before the call is answered. Pay special 
    attention to the directions in the Installation chapter for connecting a TAD to your fax 
    machine.

    Caution 
    1
     
    Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm. 
    2
     
    We recommend that this product be used with a surge protection device to protect the 
    product against lightning storms. 
    3
     
    Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed 
    for a wet location. 
    4
     
    Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the telephone 
    line has been disconnected at the network interface. 
    5
     
    Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines. 
    6
     
    Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There 
    may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning. 
    7
     
    Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak. 
    8
     
    For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet should be installed near the 
    equipment and should be easily accessible. 
    Choosing a Location 
    Place your fax machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is 
    free of vibration and shocks. Locate the fax machine near a telephone jack and a 
    standard, grounded power outlet. 
    Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area. Do not place near heaters, air 
    conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose the fax machine to 
    direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Do not connect your machine to 
    electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers. Disruption of 
    power can wipe out information in the unitÕs memory. Do not connect your machine 
    to electrical outlets on the same circuit as large appliances or other equipment that 
    might disrupt the power supply. Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the 
    base units of cordless phones.

    nLightning and power surges can damage this product! We recommend that you use a 
    quality surge protection device on the AC power line as well as on the telephone line, 
    or unplug the lines during a lightning storm.
