Configuring the Fax Transmission

Number in the format: +[country prefix][city code][external number], e. g.

+495306920094

Note: Recipients of a fax frequently send their responses to the number

entered in the header of the fax. Therefore, the number under Fax ID (phone

number), should be one of your own extensions/phone numbers with fax

Configuring the Fax Transmission

The following settings are made during fax transmission:

• EMC error correction: If EMC error correction is enabled, transmission errors occurring

during the transmission (e. g. because of faulty lines) will be corrected provided that EMC

operation (Error Correction Mode) has also been configured for the opposite end. If trans-

mission errors occur very often (e. g. overseas lines of VoIP connections with frequent

packet losses), the transmission cannot be carried out since the fax machines involved will

cancel the transmission due to an excessive number of transmission repetitions. In such

cases, it may be sensible to disable EMC error correction. Without EMC error correction,

the transmission errors occurred will be displayed as erroneous dots or lines.

• Baud rate: If the baud rate is set to maximally 9600 baud, the transmission rate of a fax will

be adapted in such a way that a faultless transmission quality will be reached, where

possible. The PBX supports a maximum transmission rate of 14400 baud. This trans-

mission rate may be too high for specific lines (e. g. overseas lines or VoIP connections)

and may lead to transmission interferences. In such cases, it may be sensible to restrict the

transmission rate to 9600 baud.

Proceed as follows:

• Separately for fax boxes

• Using the configuration manager
