Remote Diagnostics; Enabling The Facsimile Machine As A "Slave Station - Xerox Document FaxCentre 165c Service Manual

5.4 REMOTE DIAGNOSTICS

Remote diagnostics is a long-distance service enabling a main station, consisting
of a facsimile machine connected to a PC (called a "master station"), to perform
diagnostic operations on any peripheral facsimile machine in the same family (called
a "slave station") - providing it has been enabled to do so previously - to eliminate
problems that have arisen on the slave.
This facsimile machine can only be enabled as a " slave station" in remote diagnostic
sessions, that is:
- transmit a series of data that includes the setup parameters after a request has
been made in polling mode by a "master station"
- have these parameters changed locally (i.e. on the "master station"
- receive the modified data to replace the current data.

5.4.1 Enabling the Facsimile Machine as a "Slave Station"

Enabling the facsimile machine to "slave" operation is possible by setting to 1 the bit
5 of software switch SW10 (see section 4.1).
To use this function, it must be enabled by setting the REMOTE CONTROL setup
parameter in the DIAGNOSTICS submenu of the main INSTALLATION menu (see
section 3.2.1) to YES.
