ADVANCED FEATURES

Authorized Reception

Overview
This feature helps you to reject junk fax mail. It lets you specify which terminals
you wish to receive fax messages from; all others will be shut out.
To authorize reception from a particular sender:
Switch Authorized Reception on. (Function 62)
Specify the senders whose messages you want to shut out (Function 81). Do
this by programming the RTI's or CSI's as Special Terminals. (Ask the sending
party what their RTI/CSI is. Or make a communication with that terminal, print a
TCR and read off the RTI/CSI.)
If the other party is using a machine made by another maker, they may not be
familiar with the terms RTI or CSI. Explain that you are interested in the
telephone number that they stored in the machine for identification purposes.
Select whether to accept: (Function 63)
a) Only Messages from Special Terminals.
b) All Messages except those from Special Terminals.
If the RTI/CSI is not the same as any of those that you have programmed into this
feature, the message will not be accepted.
The number of RTI/CSI's that you can store for use with this feature is limited to
30. However, you can use Wild Cards to extend the number of RTI/CSI's that you
can specify.
NOTE: If you turn Authorized Reception on and you do not program any Special
Terminals, your machine will not accept any messages.
If one of the Special Terminals changes their RTI/CSI, you have to
change the stored RTI/CSI also. Otherwise, your machine cannot identify
the sender as a Special Terminal. So, you will not be able to accept any
more messages from that sender any more under the current machine
setting.
