Sharp Ux 510a Plain Paper Fax Machine Users Manual

							Optional Hookup Settings  
If necessary, you can use the following settings to improve the response of the
answering machine hookup to incoming calls.  
Quiet Detect Time  
This function causes the fax machine to take over the line and begin reception if
a certain duration of silence is detected after the answering machine answers.  
Time selections for the period of silence are 1 to 10 seconds. Quiet Detect Time
has been set to 4 seconds at the factory. This gives the best performance with
most answering machines; however, you may need to adjust this setting depend-
ing on the disconnect time of your answering machine.  
¨Some answering machines may have unusually fast disconnect times (equal
to or very slightly less than 4 seconds), which means that the answering ma-
chine may disconnect the line before fax reception can begin. In this case,
try a Quiet Detect Time setting of 3 seconds.  
¨If the fax machine is interrupting callers before they can leave a message,
try a longer Quiet Detect Time setting. If your outgoing message includes a
period of silence, make sure that the setting is longer than that period of si-
lence, or re-record your outgoing message to shorten the silence.  
To change the Quiet Detect Time setting, follow the steps below.  
Note:  Quiet Detect Time can be turned off by entering 00 for the time.
Note, however, that the fax machine will not be able to receive manually di-
aled faxes.

onds.  
4  Press the STOP key to return to the date
and time display.  
Fax reception when the answering machine fails
When this function is turned on, your fax will answer the call after 5 rings if the
answering machine for some reason fails to answer before that time. This en-
sures that you will receive fax messages even if the answering machine’s tape
fills up or the answering machine is not turned on.  
This function has been turned off at the factory. If you want to turn it on, follow-
ing the steps below.  
Note:  When this function is turned on, make sure that the answering machine
is set to answer on 4 rings or less. If it isn’t, the fax will always answer first,
preventing callers from leaving voice messages.

Caller ID
If you subscribe to a caller identification service from your telephone company,
you can set your fax to display the name and number of the caller while the fax
rings. The fax will also store information about unanswered calls which you can
view in the display or print out as a list. This allows you to screen your calls as
they come in, and makes it easy to respond to callers who do not leave mes-
sages.
To use the Caller ID function, set Option Setting 16 to YES and enter your area
code as described in Chapter 9, Optional Settings.
Important:
· ·To use this function, you must subscribe to a caller identification service
from your telephone company.
· ·Your fax may not be compatible with some caller identification services.
How Caller ID operates
When you receive a call, the name and phone number of the caller will alter-
nately appear in the display, beginning just before the second ring. The informa-
tion will continue to be displayed until you pick up the handset, or until the fax
answers automatically if it is in AUTO mode.
Note:Some caller ID services may not provide the name of the caller. In this
case, only the phone number will appear.

							Display messages
One of the following messages will appear while the fax rings if caller informa-
tion is not available.
NO SERVICE No caller information was received from your telephone
company. Make sure that the telephone company has
activated your service.
CALLER-ID
ERRORNoise on the telephone line prevented reception of caller
information.
OUT OF AREA The call was made from an area which does not have a
caller identification service, or the caller’s service is not
compatible with that of your local phone company.
PRIVATE CALL Caller information was not provided by the telephone
company at the caller’s request.
Viewing the Caller ID list
If you subscribe to a caller ID service and have set Option Setting 16 to YES,
your fax machine will keep information on the most recent 20 unanswered calls
and/or unsuccessful faxes you have received. (Note that if the caller sends a fax
or leaves a voice message in an answering machine connected to the fax ma-
chine, information on that call will not be stored.) You can view this informa-
tion, which consists of the name and number of each caller, in the Caller ID List.
¨After you have received 20 unanswered calls, each new call will delete the
oldest call.
Follow the steps below to view the Caller ID List in the display. If desired, you
can immediately dial a number when it appears.
To print out the list, see Chapter 10, Printing Out Reports and Lists.

ceive a call from a designated phone number. This lets you know immediately
who is calling without having to look at the display. To use this function, enter

Blocking voice calls
With Caller ID turned on, you can use the Anti Junk Fax function described in
the following section to block voice calls as well as fax receptions (the Anti
Junk Fax function normally only blocks faxes).
In this case, when a voice call or a fax transmission comes in from a number
you have specified as a Junk Number, your fax will break the connection as
soon as it receives the calling phone number from the caller ID service (before
the second ring).
To use this function, set Option Setting 14 to YES as described in Chapter 9,
Optional Settings, and then enter the number in the Anti Junk Number List as
described in the following section, Blocking Reception of Unwanted Faxes.

							Memory
Your fax has a memory which can be used to temporarily store both incoming
and outgoing documents.
¨Approximately 39 pages of average content can be held in memory if they
are all going to be transmitted (27 pages if Option Setting 19, Error Correc-
tion Mode, is set to YES), or 30 pages if they are all received (29 pages if
Option Setting 19 is set to YES). Less can be held if any were scanned us-
ing fine or halftone resolution.
Sending documents from memory
With this function, the original document is scanned immediately, stored in
memory, and then transmitted once the connection to the receiving machine is
made. This is convenient when transmitting to places where the line is often
busy, as it saves you from waiting to pick up the original document and frees
the feeder for other operations. After transmission, the  document will be
cleared from memory.
¨Only one memory transmission can be set at a time.
¨The amount of memory currently occupied appears as a percentage in the
display while the document is being scanned.
1Load the document(s).
· ·Set the resolution and/or contrast if de-
sired.
2Press the MEMORY key and then 1.

chine using one of the following methods:

dial the receiving machine and trans-
mit the document (redialling will be
done automatically if necessary).
If the memory becomes full...
If the memory becomes full while the document is being scanned, MEMORY
IS FULL will appear in the display.
¨Press the START key if you want to transmit the pages which have been
stored up to that point in memory. The remaining pages will be ejected
from the feeder. After transmission, the memory will be cleared and you
can transmit the remaining pages. You will also need to transmit the page
which was being scanned when the memory filled up.
¨Press the STOP key if you want to cancel the entire transmission.
Substitute reception to memory
This is a back-up function which is automatically activated if your fax runs out
of paper, the printing ribbon needs replacement, or the paper jams.
When you have received a document in memory, FAX RX IN MEMORY will
appear in the display, alternating with OUT OF PAPER, FILM END, or PAPER
JAM. When you add paper, replace the imaging film, or clear the jam, the stored
documents will automatically print out.
¨If you received documents in memory because the fax ran out of paper, be
sure to add paper which is the same size as the paper previously used. If not,
the document print-out size may not match the size of the printing paper.
Caution!
· ·When documents are stored in memory, do not turn the power off. This will
erase all of the contents.
· ·If documents received in memory are lost due to a power failure or other
interruption in the power supply, a CLEAR REPORT will be printed out
when the power is restored. This gives information about the receptions lost,
including the fax numbers of the transmitting machines if they are available.
