GLOSSARY
ECM (Error Correction Mode): This is signaling method that is designed to
eliminate transmission errors on even the noisiest of telephone lines. See page
96.
EFC:
This is a proprietary digital data compression technique. It shortens the time for
sending a page.
Factory Setting:
The factory setting of a function is the state into which it was programmed at the
factory; this will also be the state of that function in a new machine. It can also
referred to as "Default Setting".
File:
Memory File, Polling File.
Group 3:
This is an internationally-agreed signaling and data transfer method used for
facsimile communication (approved by CCITT). It is also known as G3.
Handset:
This is the telephone that is connected to the jack marked "TEL".
Home Position:
Some of your machine's features can be adjusted. The home position is the
setting to which the machine always returns at the end of an operation.
International Dialing Code:
This is the code that must be dialed at the beginning of the number if the
destination is outside your country.
Memory File:
This is a document stored in the SAF memory (see the next page) and the
instructions (destinations, time of transmission) for sending that document.
Modem:
Acronym for modulator/demodulator. A device that transforms a digital signal into
a form suitable for transmission over the telephone network.
Original:
Same as "Document".
Page Retransmission:
If the terminal you are sending to indicates that it did not properly receive the
page you just sent, your terminal will resend that page from memory. This only
works if you used Memory Mode and if you are not using ECM. (ECM is a more
effective data retransmission method.)
Polling File:
This is a set of instructions (destinations to be polled, time of polling) for polling
reception.
Pulse Dialing:
This method of dialing uses a string of pulses to represent each dialed digit.
Reception:
The act of receiving a document.
