Performing batch transmission while using the PIN mask

Note: The following instructions presume you are familiar with how to set and use both your machine’s autodialer and its batch transmission feature. If you need to review, see pages 2.7–2.15 for more on the autodialer and/or pages 2.20–2.23 for more on batch transmission.

If you’ve specified Mode 1 or Mode 2

Important: Any autodialer number you use with batch transmission must include the PIN. (To review how to include this information in an autodialer number, review the Mode 1 instructions under “Autodialing while using the PIN mask,” page 2.58.)

Before sending a batch transmission the first time, you must store the PIN within its batch box. Here’s how:

1 Follow the steps for creating or modifying a batch box (pages 2.20–2.21). The LCD asks for the fax number (here, we’re working with batch box 1):

1:Fax Number

_

2 Enter an autodialer number, or use the numeric keypad to enter the fax num- ber, to which the batch transmission should go.

Important: If you’re entering a number from the numeric keypad, enter the fax number, followed by the * (“star”) key and then the PIN.

3 Press ENTER to save the setting.

Beyond the Basics

Note: If you press ENTER without entering the PIN, the fax machine beeps, indicates “No PIN Number” on the LCD and then returns you to step 2.

4 Continue with the steps for creating or modifying a batch box (pages 2.20–2.21).

Now you can perform batch transmission to this box while the PIN mask is activated.

Setting security transmission

Your fax’s security transmission feature provides extra assurance that your documents go where you’re sending them. When this feature is activated and your machine sends a fax, the machine compares the last four digits of the dialed number to the other unit’s Subscriber ID (the phone number at the top of that unit’s transmissions; see page 1.16). If these digits match, your call goes through. If they don’t, your machine disconnects the call and prints an error message telling you to check the condition of the remote unit.

Before you activate this feature, consider:

•Not all fax machine owners enter their phone numbers in their Subscriber IDs. — Indeed, some machines don’t even have a Subscriber ID. So, with security trans- mission activated, your machine would disconnect its calls to such machines.

•Access codes can cause confusion. — If an autodialer entry ends with a long-distance or other access codes, activating this feature prevents calls to that fax.

Note: In the following instructions, your fax’s LCD abbreviates Transmission as Tx.
