Masking the PIN

To prevent unauthorized long-distance calls, some office telephone systems require you to enter a personal identification number (PIN) whenever you dial long distance.

Your fax’s PIN mask feature helps you keep that PIN number private. With the PIN mask activated, you can dial a fax number plus a PIN, but the PIN will not appear in a journal, error message printout, delayed command list or a TCR. The PIN may be up to eight characters in length. It also can include the * or # symbols, and it can be entered from the numeric keypad.

There are three possible settings for the PIN mask:

•Off — Turns off the PIN mask feature. Any PIN you enter will appear on any dis- play or printout which shows the number you dial.

•Mode 1 — Each remote fax unit has a departmental PIN access code.

•Mode 2 — Each fax user has a departmental PIN access code.

Note: If you select Mode 1 and you will use a one-touch or speed-dial number, you must store the remote unit’s PIN access code within that number. However, if you select Mode 2, this isn’t necessary. (See “Autodialing while using the PIN mask,” next column for further details.)

Note: If you select either Mode 1 or Mode 2 and will be using batch transmission (see pages 3.12–3.14), you must store the PIN access code for the remote unit within the appropriate batch box.

Important: For this feature to work, you must have activated the passcode protec- tion as described on page 3.46. You must also know the passcode.

Autodialing while using the PIN mask

Note: The following instructions presume you understand how to set and use your machine’s autodialer. If you need to review, see pages 3.1–3.6.

If you chose “Mode 1” — the PIN goes in

In Mode 1, before autodialing a number for the first time, you must add the PIN to the stored one-touch key or speed-dial number. Here’s how:

1	Begin by creating or changing an entry in the autodialer. See pages 3.1–3.6 if
	necessary. While you’re setting this up, the machine asks you to enter the PIN.

2 Select “PIN :” and then press ENTER. The LCD shows:

3 Use the numeric keypad to enter the desired PIN, up to eight characters in length.
