Setting for use with a closed network
For maximum communications security, use a closed network. This limits your
machine to faxing to and from only other Muratec fax machines with the proper
passcode.
Important: The passcode you use for closed network operation (and limiting polling
access; see page 2.20) is not the same as the protection passcode.
Once set for a closed network, your machine will disconnect calls coming in from
other machines.
To set your fax machine’s closed network password:
1
Decide upon the four-digit closed network passcode (0000–9999) you want to
use. Write it down, and put it in a safe place.

Note: To turn off the closed network passcode and return to normal fax reception,
change the code to 0000 by repeating steps 2–5 and entering 0000 in step 4.

Setting Block Junk Fax
Your fax machine’s Block Junk Fax feature lets you bar the gates against unautho-
rized incoming faxes (“junk fax”). Before beginning, first understand how this
feature works, to determine if it’s right for you. There are four possible settings:
• Off — The feature is not activated.
• Mode 1 — Your fax machine checks whether any phone number in your autodi-
aler matches the last four digits of the remote fax’s subscriber
ID
. If it doesn’t
find a match, your machine disconnects the call.
• Mode 2 — This mode rejects any call from a number whose last four digits match
any number in the blocked numbers list.
• Mode 3 — This rejects both numbers not in the autodialer and numbers that are
in the blocked numbers list. This lets you keep a number on your autodialer yet
still block its incoming calls by putting it in the blocked numbers list.
Before you activate the Block Junk Fax feature, consider:
• Not all fax machine owners enter their phone numbers in their Subscriber
ID
s. —
With this feature activated, your machine would reject faxes from such machines.
• Access codes can cause confusion. — If an autodialer entry ends with these long-
distance or other codes, Block Junk Fax will block out calls from those faxes.
If you decide to activate Block Junk Fax, here’s how:
