2.2Manually Starting, Stopping Receiving

2.2.1Manually starting receiving

This section shows you to manually receive a facsimile broadcast. For example, you may want to receive a facsimile broadcast already in progress or receive from a facsimile station that does not use start and stop signals. Further, you may wish to stop reception to receive an image from a different station.

To manually receive a facsimile, you will first need to set a channel, referring to paragraph 2.1. Then, do the following:

1.At the standby display, press the WX FAX soft key.

2.Press the RCV WX FAX soft key.

3.Press the START RX soft key.

The options shown are IOC (Index of Cooperation)/speed.

4.Rotate the [ENTER] knob to choose the correct combination of IOC and speed of the facsimile transmitting station. IOC is the line density standard assigned by WMO: IOC 576, high density, IOC 288, low density. Speed is the rotation speed of the drum (on which the original image is fitted) at the facsimile transmitter: 60, 90 ,120, 180 or 240 rpm.

5.Press the ENTER soft key.

6.Press the RETURN soft key.

Then, the FAX-30 will receive the current broadcast from the station selected. Facsimile images are received line by line, taking 30-40 minutes to receive depending on the size of the image and drum rotation speed at the facsimile station. After a facsimile image is received it is compressed and stored in the image memory and then posted on the “Thumbnails of received images” screen (see paragraph 2.4). This process takes 3-5 minutes. You can see the image being received by pressing the WX FAX soft key on the fax standby display and then hitting the RCV WX FAX soft key.
