Load number — A number assigned to telecommunications equipment used in Canada; designed to help prevent overloading on a telephone circuit. See also Ringer equivalence num- ber.

Location ID — See Station ID.

lpi — Lines per inch. The way fax image resolution is measured. (For example, see Normal resolution.)

Memory — Internal document storage. In Muratec fax machines, random access memory in the form of computer chips is used to store and hold documents for transmission and to hold some documents that have been received.

Memory overflow — A message that appears on the machine’s LCD when the

current operation requires more of the machine’s electronic memory than what is available.

MH — Modified Huffman, the standard ITU-TGroup 3 data compression method. A one-dimen- sional coding scheme that compresses data in a horizontal direction only. A feature of all Muratec fax machines, MH assures transmissions faster than one page per minute when com- municating with other Group 3 units, regardless of

manufacturer. See also MR, MMR, MSE, SMSE.

Military format — See 24-hour format.

Modem Modulator-demodulator. A device that converts digital data, like information from a fax machine, into an analog signal for transmission over ordinary telephone lines. A modem is included in a fax machine and allows it to be connected directly to a PSTN telephone line.

MR — Modified Read, an ITU-TGroup 3 standard data compression method. A two-dimen- sional coding scheme that compresses data in both horizontal and vertical directions and allows for faster transmission when communicating with other Group 3 units, regardless of manufacturer. See also MH, MMR, MSE, SMSE.

MMR — Modified Modified Read, an ITU-TGroup 3 standard data compression method. A two- dimensional coding scheme that compresses data in both horizontal and vertical directions and allows for faster transmission when communicating with other Group 3 units, regardless of manufacturer. See also MH, MR, MSE, SMSE.

Monitor — A speaker in most Muratec fax machines which allows the user to hear the dial- ing process. This is not a speakerphone, because it has no microphone for speaking to the person being called. For regular two-way voice communication, users must use the optional handset. See also On-hook dialing.

MSE, SMSE — Muratec’s proprietary data compression methods, allowing a Muratec-manufac- tured fax machine to transmit more quickly when communicating with another Muratec-manufactured unit. MSE and SMSE are features on many Muratec fax machines. See also MH, MR, MMR.

Normal resolution — Shown as “norm”; 203H ⋅ 98V lpi. The default resolution mode for all Muratec fax machines.

One-touch dialing — Allows the fax user to store frequently used fax numbers for dialing with the touch of one key. See also Autodialing and Speed-dialing.

On-hook dialing — Dialing numbers by using the keypad on the fax unit without lifting a handset. On most Muratec fax models, the user can do this either silently or by using the monitor. See also Monitor.

Original document size — The largest (or smallest) document that can be fed safely through a fax machine.

Override — To change existing settings.
