ABSTRACT:
A facsimile apparatus is operable in a facsimile mode, a telephone conversation mode or an automatic telephone answering/recording mode when a presence operation mode is set. When a CNG signal is received within a first given time, the facsimile mode is selected. On the other hand, when no CNG signal is received within the first given time and a telephone handset is off-hooked within a second given time, the telephone conversation mode is selected. When no CNG signal is received within the first given time and the telephone handset is not off-hooked within the second given time, the automatic telephone answering/recording mode is selected. Further, when no voice signal is received within a third given time during the automatic telephone answering/recording mode being selected, the facsimile mode is selected. It may be arranged that, when no CNG signal is received within the first given time and the telephone handset is not off-hooked within the second given time, one of the automatic telephone answering/recording mode and the facsimile mode is selected depending on whether the voice signal is received or not.
