Chapter 3: Server Installation

Chapter 3 – Server Installation

This chapter shows you how to set up your Multi-Tech Model FF110 FaxFinder.

The setup process includes both cabling of the FF110 unit and configuration of the FaxFinder server software. The FaxFinder server software resides on the FaxFinder unit and does not need to be installed.

Prerequisite: Ordering the DID Line

To operate the FaxFinder system, you will need a DID (Direct Inward Dial) line in your office. You must order the DID line from your local telephone operating company (telco). A DID line allows one phone line to be associated with multiple directory numbers. However, only one call can occur on this line at any given time.

DID lines are sold in groups. For example, a telco in New York City might offer a DID line with a set of 20 directory numbers in the range of 212-555-4101 through 212-555-4120.

When ordering your DID line, ask the telco representative for these details about the DID service. These details will be important when setting up your FF110 Fax Server.
