2.3.4. Transfer Broadcasting *
This machine uses a new algorithm to identify the requester’s fax number to
send back the transfer result report, because the transfer result report some-
times did not reach the requester with the algorithm used in previous models.
In a transfer broadcasting operation, the transfer requester informs its own
fax number to the transfer station. The transfer station uses that number to
identify the requester’s fax number, which the transfer station must dial to
send the transfer result report back to the requester.
Transmission of the transfer result report and selection of the number to dial
depends on the following three settings.
Setting
Switch
Conditions required for transfer result report
transmission
Communication switch 0B, bit 3
0: Always
1: If there is an error
Action when there is no fax number in the
programmed Quick/Speed dials which
matches the requester’s own fax number
Communication switch 0B, bit 5
0: Transfer cancelled
1: Transfer continued
Number of digits compared to find the
requester’s fax number from the
programmed Quick/Speed dials.
Communication switch 0C, bits 0 to 4
(default setting = 5 digits)
The requester’s fax number format is normally as follows.
[ International access code ] [ Country code ] [ Area code ] - [ Local tel. no.]
A Pause (“-”) must be programmed between area code and local tel. no.
Before the machine transfers the message, the machine compares the last
few digits of the requester’s own fax number with all the programmed
Quick/Speed Dials as shown in the diagram on the next page, starting from
Quick Dial 01 to the end of the Speed Dial codes. (The default setting for the
number of digits compared is 5; see the above table.)
If the machine finds a number in which the compared digits match those of
the requester’s own fax number, the machine chooses the number as the des-
tination for sending the report back. However, depending on the number of
digits compared, the machine may choose the wrong destination, as shown
in the example diagram on the next page.
Note that the machine does not compare the following:
•
Pause (“-”)
•
ISDN sub-address (“/aaaa”, “aaaa” is a sub-address number)
With a G4 transfer request, the G4 and G3 own fax numbers are informed
from the requester, then the machine compares the G4 number first, and the
G3 number second.
