  • Page 2: 90Si Quick Reference Guide

    Your 90si comes from the factory set for the Secure Only mode, whereby the commercial (COTS) fax connects to the 90si’s FAX jack (the other two phone jacks remain empty) and the 90si’s RS-232 Data cable connects to the Secure Data port of your crypto device. In this configuration the COTS fax can only be used for classified transac- tions with the crypto in Secure Data Mode.

    (the 90si like electronics that they build into their faxes) along with the fax machine. Be- ing an external device, you retain your investment in the 90si and replace only the COTS fax machine (at COTS prices) when necessary.

    Secure Voice, Secure Data and Clear Voice modes. It is for this reason that we recommend that you choose one of the more basic COTS faxes to connect to your 90si. All of the COTS faxes automated features will not function in the Secure environment.

    Public or Unclassified documents as well; see Section 2.3.2 Dual-Mode Considerations. If your 90si is factory fresh, it is already pre-set to operate in this mode. If it has been in another location or you are unsure of the current setting, set the Configuration to (01) Secure Only. See Section 2.4, Setting Your Cho- sen Configuration for instructions on how to do this.

    Setting Your Chosen Configuration If you are using the Secure Only Configuration and your 90si is new from the factory, you need not set the config- uration. If on the other hand your 90si is not factory new or you have chosen one of the Dual-Mode configurations you will need to tell the 90si what configuration you will be using.
  • Page 13: Print The Default Settings List

    Entering the Default Settings mode is done with the Secure Telephone / Crypto idle (not in Secure Data mode) by pressing and holding the Reset button on the side of the 90si for five (5) to six (6) seconds until both Green and Red lights extinguish.

  • Page 20: Using Your 90Si

    The Easy-Fax 90si STU-III Gateway uses an external power supply. Since the 90si has no ON/OFF switch, the device is “on” as soon as power is applied. To confirm that the 90si is properly powered and ready to operate, ensure that the Green "POWER" light is illuminated and that the Red "FAULT" indicator is extinguished.
  • Page 21: Receiving A Public Fax (Dual-Mode Configurations Only)

    To send a public (unclassified) fax, simply place the call as you normally would using the fax machine handset, hook button (speakerphone) or one of its' programmed auto-dial buttons. Note: The 90si will not allow you to send a public facsimile while the secure telephone is in the secure data mode. 3 .5 Receiving a Public Fax (Dual-Mode Configurations Only) Receiving a public (unclassified) fax differs depending on whether you are using one or two telephone lines.
  • Page 22: Selecting A Transmit Protocol

    ISDN line, the overwhelmingly large number of STE's connected to PSTN lines will drive most secure fax users to this mode. As a result, the 90si comes with the Async Protocol (with a baud rate of 9600 bps) set as the factory default.
  • Page 23: Setting And Using The Default Transmit Protocol

    Setting and Using the Default Transmit Protocol There are two ways to tell the 90si what protocol you wish it to use when transmitting a secure fax. One way is using the Default Protocol Settings described in this section and the other is using the One-Time Codes described in the next section.
  • Page 24: Using A One-Time Transmit Protocol Code

    One-Time Code and press the Start or Send button. Once your crypto cycles back out of Secure Data mode, the 90si will return to the default settings.
  • Page 25: If There's A Problem

    Interconnect Cables Insure that all of the cables that connect to the COTS fax, 90si and Secure Telephone are seated properly. It might be a good idea to remove each of them, one at a time, and re-seat the connectors.
  • Page 26: Send And Receive A Public Fax

    Insure that you can send and receive a public fax. If you are using the Secure Only configuration, temporarily disconnect the fax from the 90si and connect it directly to the outside phone line. When you test receiving a fax, be sure to listen to how may rings occur before the fax answers.

Specifically, no physical "clock" signal is generated by the Secure Phone. Instead, the timing data is em- bedded in the data and must be decoded by the 90si and the far end secure fax.
