Before Using Network Functions; Connecting To A Lan; Assigning User Function Keys - Gestetner F540 Operating Instructions Manual

Before Using Network Functions

Before using network functions, you
need to connect the machine to a
LAN, and assign necessary functions
to the user function keys.

Connecting to a LAN

NIC FAX uses TCP/IP protocol to
communicate over a LAN, and must
b e c o n n e c t e d t o t h e L A N w i t h
10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX LAN ca-
ble.
❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ 10BASE-T
10BASE-T refers to a twisted pair
IEEE802.3 (Ethernet) cable that
supports LAN communication at
10 Mbps. Use cables of category 3,
4 or 5 to connect to the machine.
❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ 100BASE-TX
100BASE-TX refers to a twisted
pair IEEE802.3u (Ethernet) cable
that supports LAN communica-
tion at 100 Mbps. Use cables of cat-
egory 5 to connect to the machine.
Note
❒ A LAN cable is not supplied with
NIC FAX.

Note
❒ The LAN cable loop should be
about 5.1 cm (2 inches) (L) from
the end.
B B B B
Connect the cable to the LAN port
on the rear of NIC FAX.
C C C C
Plug the other end of the cable
into a hub.

Assigning User Function Keys

Assign necessary functions to the
user function keys in advance.
❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ Auto Mail Reception
Press the user function key as-
signed to the Auto Mail Reception
function to turn this feature on or
off. When the Auto Mail Reception
i n d i c a to r is l it , t h e s e rv er is
