Your Machine as a Transfer Station
Your machine can be a Transfer Station for other people to use for their Transfer
Requests.
If the requesting party is using a machine of the same manufacturer as your
machine, they must perform the Transfer Request procedure given after page 51.
Any requesting party must have the same ID Code as your machine’s.
However, if the requesting party is using a machine made by another
manufacturer, or if they couldn’t get the Transfer Request procedure to work, you
will have to set up the Transfer Request by Tonal Signals feature in your machine
(see below).
❐
If you do not wish to have your machine available as a Transfer Station, con-
tact a service technician and ask to have this feature switched off.
❐
Another way to restrict use of this feature is to make sure that all requesting
parties must have their identifiers stored, so that you do not receive Transfer
Requests from unknown parties. See the bottom of page 103 for more de-
tails on this.
Transfer Request by Tonal Signals
This feature allows your machine to accept Transfer Requests made from the
requesting side using Dial Tones. An operation of this type can succeed only if the
following conditions have been met.
❐
The requester’s fax machine must be connected to a telephone line that
can accept DTMF (tone dial) signals, or must be able to generate Tonal Sig-
nals (see page 81).
❐
Your fax machine’s reception mode must be Auto Receive.
❐
Your fax machine’s remote ID must have been programmed.
❐
Transfer Request by Tonal Signals must have been switched on.
❐
The requester’s fax number must be programmed in a Quick Dial or Speed
Dial in your machine.
Setting the Machine up for Transfer Request by Tonal Signals
You must do the following to use this feature:
❐
Set up the machine in Auto Receive Mode (see page 39).
❐
Program the Remote ID (Function 61, see below).
The other party will have to enter this code every time they access your ma-
chine to make a Transfer Request using a machine that is not of the same
manufacturer as this machine.
❐
Switch Transfer Request by Tonal Signals On (Function 63, see below).
In a new machine, it is switched on in the factory.
