FAX Commands
The 56K Softmodem supports FAX commands conforming to
EIA*
standard 578
and ITU-T recommendation T.31 (08/95) which outlines class 1 asynchronous
facsimile under DCE control.
The nature of FAX communication is for a facsimile machine to transmit a graphic
image to a receiving facsimile machine. As a result, most of the commands in this
section are not designed for interaction with an end user.
The commands still generate a result code to acknowledge reception and the
action taken on a command. However in many cases, the command will generate
an
ERROR
result code if it is not connected to a sending or receiving facsimile
device.
+FAA=<value>—Adaptive Answer
A service class 1 FAX DCE may have the ability to answer as a data modem DCE
or as a FAX DCE. It may also be able to change from class 1 FAX mode to data
modem operation in response to an incoming call.
Note
: This command controls automatic switching from class 1 to class 0 for call
answering only. It does not affect call origination, switching to class 1 from other
classes, or switching to classes other than class 0.
OK
if <value> = 0, 1.
ERROR
if <value> does not equal 0, 1.
