“Modem Configuration: POTS Modem” Screen Field Definitions (cont’d)
Field Name Values Description
Routing Pots Line,
DTMF Digits,
Alcatel Mode Code,
Siemens HiCom
Mode Code,
Avaya Mode Code
The value chosen for this field determines
whether the FaxFinder is in POTS Mode (the
“Pots Line” option) or PBX Routing Mode. And if
the FaxFinder is in PBX Routing Mode, this field
also determines whether it is in generic PBX
Routing Mode (the “DTMF Digits” option) or if a
specific mode-code is used (mode codes are
available for certain specific PBX models).
The model-specific mode codes are as follows:
The "Avaya Mode Code" setting applies to Avaya
PBXs in which a centralized voice-mail system (like
Merlin Messaging or Intuity Audix) has been
installed. FaxFinder supports such Avaya PBXs as
Magix, Definity, S8500, and other models.
The "Siemens HiCom Mode Code" setting applies
to the model 300H and other Siemens PBXs in
which a centralized voice-mail system has been
installed.
The "Alcatel Mode Code" setting applies to the
Alcatel model Omni-PCX4400 PBX equipped with
an inband DTMF protocol for connecting to voice-
mail.
Additional mode codes may be added from time to
time.
If the FaxFinder is working in conjunction with
any other PBX that supports convergent routing
(that is, if the PBX allows calls to multiple
extensions to be directed to a single Station
Port), then select “DTMF Digits” for this field.
When the value of the Routing field is anything
other than “PBX Routing,” then the FaxFinder is
said to be in “PBX Routing Mode.”
If the FaxFinder is either connected directly to a
POTS phone line or is working in conjunction
with a PBX that does not support convergent
routing, then select “Pots Line” for this field.
When the value of the Routing field is “Pots
Line,” the FaxFinder is said to be in “POTS
Mode.
Max Baud Rate 2400 – 33,600 bps The value in this field determines the maximum
baud rate used for fax calls on the POTS
modem. It is typically set at less than 33,600 bps
only if there are quality problems with the phone
line.
Tone Dial on, off Set this field to “on” if your POTS line supports
tone (DTMF) dialing. Set this field to “off” if the
POTS line supports rotary dialing only.
Default = on.
