Redial Interval
The
Redial Interval
setting selects the number of minutes between retries if the
number dialed is busy or not answering, or if an error occurs.
NOTE:
You might observe a redial message on the control panel when both the
Redial On Busy
and
Redial On No Answer
settings are set to off. This occurs when
the fax accessory dials a number, establishes a connection, and then loses the
connection. As a result of this error condition, the fax accessory performs three
automatic redial attempts regardless of the redial settings. During this redial
operation, a message displays on the control panel to indicate that a redial is in
progress.
Redial on error
The
Redial on error
feature sets the number of times a fax number will be redialed
when an error occurs during a fax transmission.
Redial On Busy
The
Redial On Busy
setting selects the number of times (0 through 9) the fax
accessory redials a number when the number is busy. The interval between retries is
set by the Redial Interval setting.
Redial On No Answer
The
Redial On No Answer
setting selects the number of times the fax accessory
redials if the number dialed does not answer. The number of retries is either 0 to 1
(used in the U.S.) or 0 to 2, depending on the country/region setting. The interval
between retries is set by the redial interval setting.
