SECURITY FEATURES
Masking the PIN
To prevent unauthorized long-distance calls, some PBX (private branch exchanger) sys-
tems require a PIN (personal identification number) entry when dialing a number.
Your machine’s PIN mask feature helps you keep that PIN number private. With the
PIN mask feature activated, you can dial a number plus a PIN, but the PIN will not
appear in a journal, error message printout, delayed command list or a TCR (transmit
confirmation report).
There are three possible settings for the PIN mask:
Off — Turns off the PIN mask feature. Any PIN you enter will appear on any display
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 key or speed-dial number, you
must store the remote unit’s PIN access code within that number. (See “Autodial-
ing while using the PIN mask,” below for further details.)
• If you select either Mode 1 or Mode 2 and will be using batch transmission, you
must store the PIN access code within the appropriate batch box.
Activating the PIN mask
NOTE: For this feature to work, you must have activated the passcode protection as
described on page 9-2. And you must 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 3-4 and 3-7.
If you choose “Mode 1”
In Mode 1, before dialing a number for the first time, you must add the PIN to the stored
one-touch key or speed-dial number.
1 Begin by creating or changing an entry in the autodialer (see page 3-4 and 3-7). While
you are setting this up, the machine asks you to enter the PIN:
