Beyond the basics

Broadcasting

The basics of broadcasting

The fastest way to fax one document to many recipients is by broadcasting — and your fax machine has very powerful broadcasting capabilities. You can use broad- casting from any function requiring the entry of a fax number! That means you can perform delayed broadcasting (see pages 2.19–2.20), polling broadcasting (see pages 2.23–2.24) and even broadcasting to “hub” units for relay broadcast initi- ation (see pages 2.17–2.18).

In an ordinary broadcast, you send the fax as you normally would, except for one change: you just add more fax numbers! You can enter up to 150 numbers (20 nor- mally dialed numbers, plus 130 autodialer numbers).

We’ll assume you’ve become familiar with regular fax transmission, and we’ll shorten the instructions a bit below.

1 Insert the document and make any necessary adjustments as usual.

2 Press BROADCAST.

3 Enter the first fax number — a one-touch number, a speed-dial number or just a regular number dialed from the numeric keypad as usual.

4 To add each successive fax number, press BROADCAST between each one to insert a comma, then enter the number as in step 3. You can specify up to 150 numbers (see first paragraph, above) for a broadcast.

Press Start

C,S098,J,9-5551204

Important: Do not insert a comma after the last fax number.

Note: If you enter characters by mistake, just press CANCEL to clear them before proceeding.

5 Press START. Your fax machine will scan the document into memory and then send it to each number you’ve entered.

The main idea is: when it’s time to enter the fax number for your document, you enter multiple numbers until you’ve either reached 150 numbers or finished dialing all the numbers you want to dial for this document.

Or to save time, you can dial many numbers at once by using the machine’s Programmable keys. For more information, see “Programming a broadcast / Group” on page 2.35.

Delayed broadcasting

What if you want the broadcast to happen later? That’s the purpose of setting up a delayed broadcast.

Note: The main discussion of delayed commands comes up in the “Delayed trans- mission” section (pages 2.19–2.20). You may want to read that material before proceeding.

1 Follow steps 1–4 of “The basics of broadcasting” (left column).

2 Press COM-OPTIONS,ENTER.

3 Use the numeric keypad to enter the day of the month and time when you want the fax to perform the broadcast. Here, we’ve set it to occur at 10:15 PM on the 30th.

Delayed

Enter Time: 30/22:15

When finished, press ENTER to save the setting.

4 Now, press START. Your machine will return to its normal standby mode, while showing this on the LCD:

** Reserved ** Dec 29 1998 17:17

This means your fax machine is “reserved” for the delayed broadcast you

just programmed, but it can still be used by others to send and receive faxes if your document is stored in memory.
