Speech then Fax Calls
In some cases, you might want to speak to the receiving
part before starting the fax transmission. This call type
is referred to as a speech then fax call.
Note!
This feature must be supported by your network opera-
tor and you may need a separate subscription.
To set up a speech then fax call:
Connect your computer to the phone, using the
IR port or the RS232 cable.
Scroll to ‘Speech then FAX’ in the menu system
(the ‘Data menus’ must be turned on) and press
YES
. The display will look like the picture in the
margin.
Enter the receiving part’s number and press
YES
.
When the call is set up, the display looks like
the picture in the margin. The call is now in
speech mode.
Use the manual send mode (or similar function)
in your fax software to send the fax.
Receiving Fax and Data Calls
The procedure for receiving fax and data calls depends
on your network and subscription. If you have different
numbers for speech, fax and data calls, this is referred
to as multi numbering. This means that you can have
up to three numbers in your subscription. If you only
have one number for all call types, this is referred to as
single numbering.
Receiving Fax and Data Calls – Multi
Numbering
If your network and subscription support multi
numbering, the SH 888 will display the type of in-
coming call. There are four possible types apart from
speech calls:
•
Fax calls
•
Data calls
•
Speech then fax calls
•
Fax then speech calls
The display shows the type of call on the middle row.

Connect your computer to the phone.
Answer the call from within the software appli-
cation (if it does not answer automatically).
To receive a speech then fax call:

Connect your computer to the phone.
Receive the fax from within the software appli-

To receive a fax then speech call:
Connect your computer to the phone.
Answer the call from within the software appli-
cation (if it does not answer automatically).
After receiving the fax, pick up the phone and
continue the speech call.
Receiving Fax and Data Calls – Single
Numbering
If your network and subscription only support single
numbering, the phone does not recognize the type of
incoming call. This means that the calling part has to
tell you if you are going to receive a fax or data call.
Do the following to prepare your phone for a certain
type of call:
In the menu system, scroll to ‘Next call type’
(the ‘Data menus’ must be turned on) and press
YES
.
Select the type of call you are going to receive.
• If you select ‘Speech’, the next call will be
handled as a speech call.
Press
