Consolidated Delivery Reports

If a subscriber elects to receive delivery reports for each fax sent, a single-page fax report will be generated containing all confirmation information associated with a particular fax transmission. Since this report contains information for all the intended destinations of a particular fax message, this feature eliminates separate confirmation reports for each targeted destination. If the subscriber turns this feature off, a report is still generated if the system is unable to successfully transmit to any destination.

Outbound Channel Limitations

This feature allows a System Manager to define the maximum number of channels that will be used for outgoing fax delivery calls. By predetermining the maximum number of fax channels that can be simultaneously used for outbound fax delivery calls, the System Manager can better optimize the performance of the system.

Customized System Cover Sheet for Fax Response

This feature allows the System Manager to create and load an optional system-wide coversheet to be attached to each outgoing Fax Response fax message. The coversheet design can be a combination of text and graphics.

Improved Component/Port Level Diagnostics

This enhancement allows the System Manager to identify any faulty ports during a diagnostic test run.

Additional features incorporated into the user interface include:

Name Addressing

Name addressing allows FAX Attendant users with the ability to address fax messages to subscribers by dialing the last name of the subscriber rather than an extension number. This feature can be used wherever addressing is done in the Fax Mail, Fax Call Answer, and Fax Response services.

Fax CNG Tone Recognition

This feature provides detection of the fax calling (CNG) tone of certain autodialing fax machines. The CNG tone recognition allows Fax Call Answer to bypass any prompts and deliver the incoming fax message to the appropriate address.

Administrable Fax Mailbox Size

This feature allows the System Manager to define the fax mailbox capacity in units of pages for each subscriber.
