Reception Functions

Transfer Station

Transfer Stations allow you to expand the stand-
ard features of your fax machine to set up com-
plex networks. Transfer Stations must be
machines of the same make.
The diagram below may make the concept clearer.
The following terminology is used in this section.
Requesting Party
The machine where the message originates from.
Transfer Station (this machine)
The machine that forwards the incoming mes-
sage to another destination.
Operating InstructionsFacsimile Reference (option) <Advanced Features>
End Receiver
The final destination of the message, that is
the machine the Transfer Station sends to.
End Receivers must be programmed into
Quick Dial or Groups in the Transfer Station.
Limitation
Polling ID's of the Requesting Party and
Transfer Station must be identical for this fea-
ture to work.
A Transfer Request cannot be sent, if the fax
number of the transfer station (this machine)
is not programmed in Quick Dial.
If your line number is not programmed at the
Transfer Station, reception will not take
place.⇒ p.255 "Transfer Report"
This machine will not receive a Transfer Re-
quest unless it has enough free memory to
store two or more destinations dialed from the
number keys. ⇒ Chapter 2, "Number keys" in
the Basic Features manual
If the Requesting Party specifies a Group for
the End Receivers and the total number of
End Receivers exceeds 500, the Transfer
Station cannot transfer the message and
sends a Transfer Result Report to the Re-
questing Party.
