Relay Transmission, Relay-Relay Transmission Overview

What is a "Relay Transmission"?
A relay transmission is used to send documents from your facsimile (originator)
to a Hub Station, which then sends them to additional end stations. If you have
several stations in one or more regional areas (e.g. Los Angeles Metro, New
York City, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Seattle-Tacoma, etc.); you can save time and phone
charges by setting up a relay system. By sending your document to a Hub
Station, you can then instruct the Hub Station to retransmit the document to the
end stations in their local geographical area.

What is a "Relay-Relay Transmission"?
A Relay Transmission where two levels of Hub Stations are involved is called a
Relay-Relay Transmission. In a Relay-Relay Transmission, the first Hub Station
sends the document to another Hub Station(s) which then transmits them to
additional end stations.

To perform Relay Transmissions or Relay-Relay Transmissions, you must build a
network beforehand.
Consult your authorized TOSHIBA dealer for assistance in using this function.
Conditions for a Relay/Relay-Relay Transmission Network
1. The originator station must be an ITU-T relay communication compatible fac-
simile unit such as TOSHIBA DP120F/DP125F/DP80F/DP85F.
2. The Hub Station must be an ITU-T relay communication compatible facsimile
unit with Hub Station functions such as DP120F/DP125F.
NOTE: The DP80F/DP85F can only function as an originator station.
3. The Relay Hub Station must have the end station settings pre-programmed as
a Relay Box.
4. Due to advanced planning and setup requirements for the Relay-Relay trans-
missions involving two or more Hub Station transfers, contact your authorized
TOSHIBA dealer for detailed instructions.
