Chapter 7: Device Manager Operation

Synchronizing Phonebooks

When FaxFinder phonebooks are synchronized, all non-administrative listings match. One FaxFinder unit (the Primary unit) holds the master list that is transmitted (using the Synchronize Phonebooks command) to other FaxFinder units in the system (Copy units). FaxFinder units can operate in same system but have independent phonebooks, in which case they are designated Independent.

Synchronizing phonebooks entails three steps:

1.Designating one FaxFinder as the master phone book. In the main Device Manager screen, right-click on the unit to be designated as master, scroll to Set Phone Book Sharing, and select Primary.

2.Designating all other FaxFinder units participating in phonebook sharing as Copy units. In the main Device Manager screen, right-click on each unit to share the master phonebook, and select Copy.
