Fax ID
The System ID to reach the fax machine. The ID must be unique and
cannot conflict with any other Personal IDs, Extension # IDs, or
System IDs. Callers press this ID to send manual faxes . You should
mention this ID in the opening greeting , so callers k now the nu mber
to dial to reach the fax machine.
To prevent callers from pressing the System ID directly, you can use
a hidden System ID (by adding $ to the beginning of the System ID).
If the fax System ID is hidden, or if the Fax ID field is blank, outside
callers cannot send manual faxes. The system delivers automatic
faxes only.
Voice name
The fax box recorded name is the Pub lic Fax Bo x. You may record
this name again using a local con nection if you want. For de tails,
refer to Chapter 15 Recording Voice Fields.
Transfer?
To set up the voice mail system to handle incoming faxes, set the
Transfer? field to Yes and enter the telephone extension number
that the fax machine is co nnected to. The voice mail system
transfers all incoming fax calls to this ex te ns io n.
Just below the Transfer? field, specify the call transfer y ou want:
Release, Await-Ans, or Wait-Ring. Except for a Release call
transfer, specify the number of rings you want the voice mail system
to wait. For more details on how call transfer works, refer to Chapter
2 Section 2 Call Transfer on page 2 -11 and Section 3 Screen Ca lls
on page 2-16.
Holding?
This field applies only to manual fa xes, and requires Await Answer or
Wait for Ringback transfer. Set this field to Yes if a person sending a
manual fax should be allowed to hold by pressing 1 if the f ax
machine extension is busy. Set thi s f ield to Vo x if the person should
be allowed to hold by saying Yes instead of pres sing touch tones. A
fax machine sending an automatic fax cannot hold. To turn off call
holding, set this field to No.
