BASIC FAXFINDER CONFIGURATION
Field
Routing
38
Description
For inbound fax calls from the PSTN, this setting determines whether the modem checks the
line for DID routing information in the form of DTMF digits. This setting directly effects how
other Inbound Routing fields should be configured.
Note: For DTMF Digits or PBX Mode Code routing, the modem listens up to 15
seconds for all expected DID routing information. If it detects only a portion or none of
the expected digits after 15 seconds the modem will declare a timeout and proceed to
make fax answer tones. After a fax is received, it will be delivered as if POTS Line is the
selected routing technique.
Select from the following options:
POTS Line With this option, the modem does not look for DID routing information from
the line/PBX. When the modem receives a fax, FaxFinder delivers it based on
options defined for this line number in the Lines section of the Inbound
Routing page.
DTMF Digits With this option, the modem listens for DID routing information from the PBX
line. DID information must be a string of DTMF digits. FaxFinder makes fax
answer tones after it hears the expected number of DID digits (Max Extension
Digits). After the modem receives a fax, FaxFinder tries to match the DID
number it heard with entries in the Recipients table to determine delivery
options.
___Mode Code ___ represents the specific PBX equipment that you have. PBX Mode Code is
similar to DTMF Digits, except the DTMF digits from the PBX also contain
information that FaxFinder doesn't use. FaxFinder needs to know the
incoming mode code format to identify and extract the DID extension
number imbedded within. FaxFinder includes PBX Mode Codes for some
device manufacturers. If the codes for your device are not included, select
User Defined and add the code to the Routing Definition field.
