Receiving Faxes
The MultiPASS C20 provides you with four different modes for
receiving faxes. To decide which mode will best suit your requirements,
consider how you want to use the MultiPASS C20:
Fax/Tel Mode: Use this mode if you will occasionally use the
MultiPASS C20 as a telephone. In this mode, if an incoming call is a
fax, the MultiPASS C20 then receives fax calls automatically,
without ringing; if the call is from a person, the MultiPASS C20
rings to alert you to pick up the handset to answer the call. This
mode is economical, in that it allows you to have phone and fax
service without the expense of an additional phone line.
This mode also includes settings that let you control precisely how it
handles incoming calls. For details and instructions, see the
MultiPASS Desktop Manager for Windows
MANUAL MODE: Use this mode if you will frequently use the
MultiPASS C20 as a telephone and want to answer every call
yourself, including fax calls. The MultiPASS C20 then rings for
every call, whether phone or fax, and you must press the
(START/COPY) button to begin receiving a fax.
FAX ONLY MODE: Use this mode if the MultiPASS C20 will be
connected to a separate telephone line used only for transmitting
faxes. The MultiPASS C20 answers all calls, but accepts only those
from fax machines and disconnects all others.
ANS. MACHINE MODE: Use this mode if you plan to connect an
answering machine to the MultiPASS C20 to receive faxes and
phone messages. The MultiPASS C20 then receives incoming faxes
normally, and routes incoming phone calls to the answering
machine.
Once you have decided which mode you want, set the mode as
described in "Setting the Receive Mode" on page 3-44. You can change
the mode at any time.
The MultiPASS C20 also offers these additional features to let you
customise its function to suit your needs:
The MultiPASS Desktop Manager allows you to receive faxes
directly into your PC, where they will be stored as scanned images.
The MultiPASS C20's Error Correction Mode (ECM) corrects
damaged data caused by line errors when receiving from a fax
machine that also has ECM capability.
See the MultiPASS Desktop Manager for Windows
on these and other functions, and instructions on enabling them.
