Dish Network 138410, Solo 811 quick start Troubleshooting Tables, Using Event Timers

Troubleshooting Tables

Your computer or FAX machine was receiving a FAX or modem transmission, but an error occurred.

The receiver may have tried to call the Customer Service Center to send Pay- Per-View purchase information during the FAX or mode call. When the receiver found that the telephone was busy, it automatically disconnected. This generated “clicks” that caused an error in the FAX or modem transmission.

Have the sender resend the FAX or modem transmission.
