     A faxmodem must pick up the line to hear a fax tone. It has a  waiting
period  to establish connect, and it will wait for that length of time  (if
you  shorten the time you will never get a fax). So, if you have  one  line
with  fax  and  voice, set the fax software so it is loaded  but  does  not
answer. When you answer the phone and hear the fax 'beep', then use  manual
answer of the software, usually a hot-key (see your software manual).  Also
you can dial a fax-back service with your phone, and when they say to rec'v
the fax use the manual answer to rec'v the fax.
     Winfax  and  other Windows software click on receive in  the  software
manager.

When you leave the house, then put the fax software back on auto-answer.
