Glossary
You can insert a pause within a telephone number or at the end of a telephone
number. A pause is also sometimes required to connect to an outside line, or for
overseas fax transmissions to certain countries.
The default settings are two seconds if a pause is inserted within the telephone
number (may vary depending on your location), and 10 seconds if a pause is added
to the end of the telephone number. Only the length of pauses inside a telephone
number, and not those at the end, can be changed.
Private Branch Exchange. An in-house telephone switching system that interconnects
telephone extensions to each other, as well as to the external telephone network. A
PBX controls the flow of telephone traffic through instruments, such as paging
systems and automatic callback and dialing.
Personal Identification Number. To prevent unauthorized access to telephone lines,
some PBX (Private Branch Exchange) systems require that a PIN code be entered
when dialing to make a call or to send a document. Depending on the PBX system,
the PIN code may be entered before the number as a prefix, or after the number as a
suffix. If your PBX needs a PIN code to connect to an outside line, you can specify the
user data settings of the machine so that it prompts you for a PIN code every time you
dial.
A set of rules that govern the transmission of data across a network. Examples of
protocols are FTP, DHCP, BOOTP, RARP, IPP, TCP/IP, and LDAP.
See Relay sending.
Also called "relay broadcast." You can send a document to a fax machine in a distant
location, and then have that fax machine relay the document to several destinations
within the same area.
