Transfer Station

Transfer Stations allow you to expand the standard functions of your fax machine to set up complex networks.

The diagram below may make the concept clearer.

The following terminologies are used in this section:

❖Requesting Party

The machine where the message originates.

Limitation

❒Polling ID's of the Requesting Par- ty and Transfer Station must be identical for this function to work.

❒A Transfer Request cannot be sent if the fax number of the transfer station (this machine) is not pro- grammed as a Quick Dial.

❒If your line number is not regis- tered at the Transfer Station, recep- tion will not take place. See p.169 “Transfer Report”.

❒If the Requesting Party specifies a

Group for the End Receivers and 5

the total number of End Receivers exceeds 500, the Transfer Station cannot transfer the message and sends a Transfer Result Report to the Requesting Party.

❒See "Registering Destination to a Group", General Settings Guide.

❖Transfer Station (this machine)

The machine that forwards the in- coming message to another desti- nation.

❖End Receiver

The final destination of the mes- sage, that is the machine the Trans- fer Station sends to. End Receivers must be programmed into a Quick Dial or Groups in the Transfer Sta- tion.

-Multistep transfer

The principles of Transfer Stations can be used to build up a multi-step facsimile network where messages are passed through several Transfer Stations. By programming the End Receivers in a Transfer Station Group, you can enable this machine to trans- fer messages onto other Transfer Sta- tions.

For more information, contact your service representative.

This function can only be used if the machines are made by the same man- ufacturer.
