    bh500 not receive fax

    FK-502 I installed, I regularly send faxes but not receive them.
    When a fax comes in, although the phone line is set as auto-rx, the fax board cut off communication.
    Could you help thanks

    Does it have a hard drive? it may need reformatted. All setup procedures correct and in order? Check marketing area.

      This is a symptom of a bad phone line, unplug the line from your machine and call your fax number if it still rings once and cuts off, contact your phone service provider.

        A couple of ideas to try (although dialing your own phone can resolve many issues)..
        Ensure you are using the 2 wire cable supplied with the fax kit, normal 4 wire cable can cause issues
        MFP requires an analog phone jack and should not be shared with the credit card machine
        No VOIP
        Reduce the comm speed and see if any change
        If it's a new fax board in an older 500, update firmware to ver 3.0 (reload of f/w might be a good idea anyway)

        Hope you get this resolved. Emujo
        If you don't see your question answered in the forum, please don't think it's OK to PM me for a personal reply...I do not give out firmware and/or manuals.
