Setting Up Your Faxing System
During the installation of the MultiPASS Desktop Manager, you define the basic faxing elements of your MultiPASS system, including:
Fax header
Your name and number; this information is then printed on the top of each fax you send.
In the United States, you are required by FCC regulations to include this information every time you send a fax. Be sure to fill in this information.
Receive Mode
How you will be receiving faxes. During installation, you will choose one of the following Receive modes:
Fax Only mode
You must have a separate telephone line for the MultiPASS (called a dedicated fax line). The MultiPASS will receive fax calls only (no voice calls).
FaxTel mode
You can receive both faxes and voice calls with the same telephone line. The MultiPASS will determine if the incoming call is a fax or a voice call. If it is a fax, it will receive the fax without ringing. If it is a voice call, the MultiPASS will ring to alert you to pick up the telephone. (You must attach a telephone to the MultiPASS to select this mode.)
Manual mode
The telephone attached to the MultiPASS will ring for both faxes and voice calls. If the incoming call is a fax, you must press the START/COPY button to receive the fax. (You must attach a telephone to the MultiPASS to select this mode.)
Answer Machine mode
You can attach either a telephone with an answering machine or an answering machine only to your MultiPASS. When you turn on the answering machine, the MultiPASS can either receive a fax or record a voice message.
