Configuring the Fax Transmission
Note:
Recipients of a fax frequently send their responses to the number
entered in the header of the fax. Therefore, the number under
Fax ID (phone
number)
, should be one of your own extensions/phone numbers with fax
acceptance.
Configuring the Fax Transmission
The following settings are made during fax transmission:
• EMC error correction
: If EMC error correction is enabled, transmission errors occurring
during the transmission (e. g. because of faulty lines) will be corrected provided that EMC
operation (Error Correction Mode) has also been configured for the opposite end. If trans-
mission errors occur very often (e. g. overseas lines of VoIP connections with frequent
packet losses), the transmission cannot be carried out since the fax machines involved will
cancel the transmission due to an excessive number of transmission repetitions. In such
cases, it may be sensible to disable EMC error correction. Without EMC error correction,
the transmission errors occurred will be displayed as erroneous dots or lines.
• Baud rate
: If the baud rate is set to maximally 9600 baud, the transmission rate of a fax will
be adapted in such a way that a faultless transmission quality will be reached, where
possible. The PBX supports a maximum transmission rate of 14400 baud. This trans-
mission rate may be too high for specific lines (e. g. overseas lines or VoIP connections)
and may lead to transmission interferences. In such cases, it may be sensible to restrict the
transmission rate to 9600 baud.
