Relay Broadcast Initiation

Broadcasting is a fax function allowing one fax machine to send one fax document to numerous other machines with a minimum of trouble for the user. While your machine doesn’t do broadcasting, it can perform relay broadcast initiation. In this process, your fax machine transmits a document to a high- volume “hub” Muratec fax machine and specifies a call group ---- a designated

group of fax numbers stored in that machine’s autodialer ---- to which the hub fax

machine should broadcast the document. The remote fax then receives your document, stores the document in memory and retransmits the document to each number in the designated group of fax numbers stored in that machine’s autodialer. (So, of course, you’ll have to know the proper call group number in order to do this.)

To initiate a relay broadcast:

1. Insert the document and press program, 3.

2.Press mode/enter.

Group No. :

3.Use the numeric keypad to enter the number of the call group to which you want the hub fax machine to broadcast the document. (You can specify the group from 00 to 32 for each relay broadcast initiation. “00” means all group numbers.)

To enter more than one group, press program after entering a group number. When the group number resets to the above display, enter the next group number. Do not press program after you enter the last group number.

4.Press mode/enter.

5.Enter the fax number of the hub fax machine. (You may use a one-touch or speed-dial number or simply enter a number on the numeric keypad.)

To begin relay broadcast initiation, skip to step 7. To perform delayed relay broadcast initiation, go to step 6.

6. To perform delayed relay broadcast initiation, press program. Use the

numeric keypad to enter the date and time when your fax machine should to the delayed relay broadcast initiation. If you want to change a just one number in date or time, use the one-touch key a to move backward (leftward) in the sequence. Use the one-touch key b to move forward (rightward).

7.Press start. If you set the relay broadcast initiation to begin right now, your fax machine will start dialing the hub fax machine. If you set the command for delayed operation, the fax will go into “Reserved” mode.
