Relay Broadcast (Transmitting Documents Through A Relay Station) - Fuji Xerox ApeosPort 450 I User Manual

Relay Broadcast (Transmitting Documents Through a Relay Station)

The Relay Broadcast feature transmits documents to multiple recipients via other fax
machines (relay stations). When a document is to be transmitted over a long distance
to multiple recipients, it is first transmitted to one relay station and from there to multiple
recipients. When you transmit documents over a long distance to many recipients,
using Relay Broadcast can save on call charges.
Furthermore, multiple Relay Broadcast operations can be performed simultaneously.
This is referred to as Multiple Relay Broadcast.
Note
There are three Relay Broadcast Send methods.
Fax Signal Method
This method employs a Fuji Xerox proprietary communication procedure that is only for
use with specific machines that have the Relay Broadcast Send feature. The G3 mode
is available.
DTMF Method
G3 fax machines that support Manual Send can make Relay Broadcasts for the
machine.
F Code Method
This method can be used among machines that have the F Code and the Relay
Broadcast Send features. The G3 mode is available.
