D. Use the Routing field to set the FaxFinder's operating mode.
For Manual Routing Mode , set the Routing field to "Pots Line."
For Automated Routing Mode , set the Routing field to "DTMF Digits," or, if a mode code for your
PBX is listed in the drop-down box, select that mode code.
E. Dial Prefix (or 'access digit'). When the FaxFinder is attached to an extension of a PBX or key phone
system, an access digit is often required to 'get an outside line' (that is, to make a connection to the
PSTN). Often a "9" or an "8" is used for this purpose. You can also add a comma (",") to insert a
pause that may be required to receive dial tone for the outside line.
If needed, enter the access digit and optional comma in the "Dial prefix" field. Inform FaxFinder client
users that they should not insert any access digits when entering fax numbers in the FaxFinder Send
Fax screen or in their FaxFinder Address Books. Instead, client users should enter fax numbers the
way they would dial the number from an ordinary residential phone line. Finally, avoid any access
digit combination that might predispose client users to make fax calls accidentally to 911 or any other
official/emergency phone number.
F. Fax Debugging . Leave this feature OFF. It is intended for use only by Multi-Tech Tech Support.
G. Init String . Set only if modem is in situation that requires an AT command to be inserted after each
use.
H. Set the Max DTMF Digits field per the requirements of the PBX with which the FaxFinder will
interface (if applicable).
I. Fax ID . The value entered in the "Fax ID" field will appear in the fax log printed by the sender's fax
machine and, typically, will be printed at the top of each page of the transmitted fax.
In Automated Routing Mode (where the Routing field is set to "DTMF Digits" or a 'mode code'
option for a particular PBX brand), the Fax ID is typically the PBX fax extension number of the
FaxFinder Administrator or the number of the phone line to which the FaxFinder is connected.
In Manual Routing Mode (where the Routing field is set to "Pots Line") , the Fax ID is typically the
number of the phone line to which the FaxFinder is connected.
In either mode , an organizational identifier, like the company name, might be used as the Fax ID
instead of any fax number.
