Brother MFC-7360 Manual De Usuario

Chapter 6

• 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, please 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 fax 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 properly, it will 
recognize the registered ring pattern of the 
‘fax number’ within 2 ring patterns and 
then answer with a fax tone. When the 
‘voice number’ is called, the machine will 
not answer.

After you have set the Distinctive Ring feature 
to On, your Distinctive Ring number will 
receive faxes automatically. The receive 
mode is automatically set to Manual and you 

cannot change it to another receive mode 
while Distinctive Ring is set to On. This 
ensures the Brother machine will only answer 
the Distinctive Ring number and not interfere 
when your main telephone number is called.
