Configuring Modems

FaxFinder modems can be configured individually, which allows you to dedicate fax resources to match your needs.
You can set individual modems to receive faxes only, send faxes only, or both.
Note: To ensure that your faxes comply with federal regulations, refer to the Fax Branding Statement in
Regulatory Information
1. Click Fax Configuration.
2. Select the check boxes for the modem or modems you want to configure. Click the check box in the
header bar to select all modems. Selecting multiple modems applies the same configuration except Fax ID
to all selected modems.
Note: FaxFinder lists modems sequentially under # and by unit under Port. For Port, the first number
indicates if the modem is in the fax server or expansion module. The second number indicates which
modem in the server or expansion module. If you only have a fax server, the first number is always 1.
3. Select modem settings. Refer to Modem Fields.
4. Click Save to save the entry.
Note: If you change any modem parameters, that modem initializes immediately after you click Save. If the
modem is currently in use, initialization begins when the current call is completed.

Description
The internal modem number, which is based on the FaxFinder model (1-2 for the FF240, 1-4
for the FF440 and 1-8 for the FF840) or Expansion Module (8 or 16 additional modems).
Use this to set the modem's Country Profile Code. For correct operation, use the country code
for country where you are using the FaxFinder.
If you set Routing to POTS Line, enter how many times the line should ring before the modem
answers it. If this is 2, the modem will pick up the line after it detects two ring sequences. If
you set Routing to DTMF Digits or a PBX mode code, the modem ignores this value. PBX mode
code and DTMF Digits routing always pick up after one ring sequence.
