Yeah, here it is dated five days ago. Don't know why you didn't see it.

Direct from manual:
Receiving Documents Manually-Manual Mode (section 5-3)
You will want to set your MultiPass C5000 to receive documents manually
when you want to personally check each incoming call to see if it is from a
fax or from a person. You must have a telephone attached to the C5000.
When MP C5000 rings, pick up the phone.
1) If you hear a person's voice, start your conversation. If the caller
wants to send you a document after talking to you, wait on the line until
you hear a slow beep or silence(depending on the sending fax unit), then
press START/COPY to receive the document.
2) If you hear a slow beep or silence, another fax is trying to send you a
document. Press START/COPY.
3) Hang up the telephone after MP C5000 displays RECEIVE. If you don't hang
up, the C5000 beeps intermittently for a few seconds after you receive the
document. To disable the beeping, turn off the Off Hook Alarm option in the
Advanced: Send Fax dialog box.
All of the above assumes that you have set the C5000 for Fax/Tel mode(where
the phone line is used for both voice and fax messages, rather than the Fax
Only mode(where the phone line is dedicated for fax only).

Ron
