Field Name

Values

Description

 

 

Error Correction

on, off

By setting Error Correction to "on," you are

 

 

 

 

requesting that faxes be sent in an error-free

 

 

 

 

condition, which can be achieved only if the

 

 

 

 

remote fax machine with which you are

 

 

 

 

communicating also supports Error Correction

 

 

 

 

and has this feature enabled. The Error

 

 

 

 

Correction feature slows down fax transmissions.

 

 

 

 

If you are operating at speeds below 16,800 bps,

 

 

 

 

you can set Error Correction "off" to achieve

 

 

 

 

faster transmissions of faxes, although the

 

 

 

 

quality of the fax transmissions may be

 

 

 

 

compromised. However, if you have set the fax

 

 

 

 

baud rate to 16,800 bps or higher, then error

 

 

 

 

correction is automatically enabled.

 

 

 

 

Default = on.

 

 

Smart Dial

on, off

If set to “on,” the POTS modem will detect dial

 

 

 

 

tones and busy signals. If ‘no dial tone’

 

 

 

 

messages appear consistently, the Smart Dial

 

 

 

 

feature may be having difficulty detecting PBX

 

 

 

 

dial tone. In such cases, set Smart Dial to “off.”

 

 

 

 

Default = on.

 

 

Fax Direction

both, inbound,

In this field, you can set the FaxFinder to allow

 

 

 

outbound,

only incoming faxes, only outgoing faxes, or to

 

 

 

 

allow both.
