Abstract
When a call signal is received, the caller's telephone number transmitted from the switchboard is stored in the RAM. Then, whether the caller's telephone number matches one of telephone numbers stored in the abbreviated-dialing list is determined in S29. When the caller's telephone number matches one telephone number stored in that list (Yes in S29), the attribute stored in correspondence with the caller's telephone number is judged in S31. Then, a reception mode suited for the determined attribute is selected and set to the facsimile machine 1 in S34, S36, or S38. Afterward, a reception operation of the set mode is performed in S35, S37, or S39. At this stage, the telephone circuit is first connected.
