Setting Up and Using OpenLCR

Note: If you wish to connect more than one OpenLCR-enabled device to the same line, please call OpenLCR at 970-206-1207. If you replace an old OpenLCR- enabled device with a new one, you must re-register with OpenLCR to use the new device.

Note: OpenLCR cannot be used if your fax machine is connected to a Private Branch Exchange (PBX).

Downloading (receiving) the rate data manually

Your fax machine will automatically call OpenLCR and download updated rate data about once every three months. Normally you will not need to download the rate data manually.

If you register through OpenLCR’s Web site, you must manually download the rate data to activate service.

If the fax machine is unplugged or some other interruption occurs in the power, you will need to manually download the rate data.

Press OpenLCR and 2 to call OpenLCR and initiate downloading. Downloading

lasts one or two minutes. During this time the display will show LCR DOWNLOADING. When downloading is completed, the display will briefly show DOWNLOAD OK!! and then revert to the date and time. OpenLCR will also program the date and time and your fax number in your fax machine.

Using OpenLCR

When you have registered with OpenLCR and downloaded the rate data to your fax machine, a highlighted “C” will appear in the date and time display to indicate that the OpenLCR feature is activated.

“C” indicates that OpenLCR is activated

Each time you make a long distance phone or fax call, the fax machine will automatically route the call through the least expensive carrier based on the downloaded rate information.

Don’t unplug the fax, or the rate data will be lost!
