What Networking Features Does This Machine Have?

The machine’s networking features are summarized below.

Transfer Request: This allows you to send a fax message to a number of destinations via a single Transfer Station (see page 87). Transfer Request can be combined with Broadcasting to set up more complex networks (see page 90).

Two-step Transfer: This process adds a Relaying Terminal between you and the Transfer Station. The Relaying Terminal could be a machine in your area that has access to a long-distance high-speed digital link, which would pass on your fax message to the Transfer Station, which would then distribute your fax message over low-speed local lines. See page 91 for details on this feature.

Multi-step Transfer: This allows you to set up a string of Transfer Stations in different areas. The Transfer Station in each area would distribute your message to destinations in the same area, and pass on your message to the next Transfer Station in the chain. See page 93 for more on this feature.

When you look at these procedures later in this section, they may seem rather complex. However, once you have decided upon a certain operation, and if you plan to use it frequently, program it as a Keystroke Program. Next time, this will allow you to start the operation with only one keystroke.

Note

Your sales or service representative will be able to help make all the necessary group and transfer station number programming in the various broadcasting terminals throughout your proposed network. Please co-ordinate with your sales representative to obtain correct programming at the time of installation.
