G-4
Glossary
DRPD
Distinctive Ringing Pattern Detector. Allows you to assign up to
five different ring patterns to distinguish voice and fax calls using
your telephone company’s special services.
E
ECM
Error Correction Mode. The ability of your MultiPASS 1000 to
reduce system and line errors when sending or receiving from
another fax with ECM capability. ECM is most effective in areas
where the telephone lines are in poor condition or there is frequent
interference on the line. Do not use ECM if you need to send a
document quickly and you are sure the other party can read your
transmission without it (turning off ECM also turns off MMR.).
Emulation
A technique where one device imitates (acts like) another device.
Expanded dialing
Ability to register and then dial a fax or telephone number up to
118-digits long by pressing just one or three buttons.
Extension
A telephone connected to the MultiPASS 1000 that is used in place
of the handset. You can use the extension telephone to activate
incoming reception of documents manually.
F
FAX/TEL switching
This option allows you to set the MultiPASS 1000 to automatically
detect whether a call is from a fax or a telephone. If the call is from
another fax, the transmission is automatically received. If the call is
from a telephone, the fax rings to let you know, so you can pick up
the handset. With this feature, one telephone line can be shared by
both the telephone and the fax.
FINE
The setting for documents with very small characters and lines.
G
G3, Group 3 fax machine
Defined by CCITT. Uses encoding schemes to transmit image data
while reducing the amount of data that needs to be transmitted,
thus reducing transmission time. G3 fax machines can transmit
one page in less than one minute. Encoding schemes for G3 fax
machines are Modified Huffman (MH), Modified Read (MR), and
Modified Modified Read (MMR)
