ANSWERING CALLS (AFX-250):

If the AFX-250 detects fax alert tones or manual fax switching touch-tones
within five seconds, it automatically directs the call to the fax machine
or fax modem.

If the AFX-250 detects a preset sequence of touch-tone commands within
five seconds, it either switches the call directly to the fax machine/fax
modem or is set to accept further commands.

If the AFX-250 does not detect fax alert tones or touch-tone command
within five seconds, it automatically switches the call to its fax jack.

ANSWERING CALLS (In Person):

You can answer a call in person by picking up any phone on the line before
the TAD or AFX-250 answers the call.

NOTE:  Because the AFX-20 automatically disables the fax machine when a
       call is received, you cannot use its built-in telephone to answer a
       call in person.

If you answer a call and the call is a voice call, talk as usual.

If you answer the call and hear fax alert tones, hang up the telephone.
The AFX-250 directs the call to the fax machine/fax modem regardless of
whether you hang up or not.
