11.5.2 Configuring Fax Notification

NPC sends fax messages to specific destinations using the fax service and window messaging
subsystem. If these services are not available on your host computer, install them first before using
the fax notification function of the system. You will also need to connect a fax/modem to your
computer. Installing a fax/modem can be a tricky process, so consult your operating system manuals
for instructions on how to install your fax/modem software.
As a rule, the following services should be available on the host computer running NPC:
• Personal Fax
• Windows Messaging
• Internet Mail and Telephony Services
For fax notification to function on a Unix-based system, connect a modem and NPC will be able to
send fax.
To enable fax service on NT, the following steps can be taken as examples:
1
You need to install Personal Fax and Windows Messaging. Personal Fax is usually bundled with
Microsoft's Small Business Server. You may download its package from Microsoft's web site.
2
Here are some of the known issues with installing Personal Fax.
• Telephony service must be enabled and running.
• Listed below are examples for configuring fax service under Windows NT. Some of them must
be configured during the installation process of Personal Fax.
