The value chosen for this field determines whether the
FaxFinder is in Manual Routing Mode (the “Pots Line” option)
or Automated Routing Mode. If the FaxFinder is in Automated
Routing Mode, this field also determines whether it is in
generic Automated Routing Mode (the “DTMF Digits” option)
or if a specific mode-code is used (mode codes are available
for certain specific PBX models).
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
“Pots Line,” then the FaxFinder is said to be in “Automated
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 “Manual Routing Mode.”
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 are available as listed.
User Defined mode codes (Custom) are defined in the Key
URL that displays the definitions of the special character
sequence that can be used to create a custom mode code
definition. The Key URL is displayed after the Routing
Definition field when Routing is set to User Defined.
