TRANSMISSION USING F-CODES

This chapter explains F-code transmission, which gives you a convenient means of performing advanced operations such as relay broadcast transmission and confidential transmission. Please read those sections that are of interest to you.

COMMUNICATION BETWEEN MACHINES SUPPORTING F-CODES

This machine supports the "F-code"standard as established by the ITU-T*.

Operations such as relay broadcast transmission and confidential transmission previously could only be performed with another Sharp fax machine; however, F-Code communication makes it possible to perform these operations with fax machines of other manufacturers that support F-Code communication.

Before using the functions explained in this chapter, make sure that the other fax machine supports F-Code communication and has the same functions as your machine. (Note that the other machine may use different names for some functions.)

*The ITU-T is a United Nations organization that establishes communications standards. It is a department of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), which coordinates global telecommunications networks and services.

BOXES AND SUB-ADDRESSES/PASSCODES REQUIRED FOR F-CODE TRANSMISSION

"Boxes" can be created in the memory of fax machines that support F-Code communication. These boxes are used to store faxes received from other machines and documents to be transmitted when a polling request is received. Up to 30 boxes can be created for a variety of purposes, and a name can be assigned to each box. A "sub-address"that indicates the box's location in memory must be programmed, and if desired, a passcode can also be programmed to control access to the box. (A sub-address must be programmed, however, a passcode can be omitted.)
