Setting Up and Using OpenLCR

Caution! If you unplug the fax machine or an interruption occurs in your power supply, the rate data will be erased. If this happens, the highlighted “C” in the display will blink to alert you.The fax machine will automatically call OpenLCR within the next 24 hours to receive new rate data; however, if you want to use OpenLCR service before that time, you should download the rate table manually as explained on page 26.

We recommend that you do not unplug the fax machine on a regular basis (for example at night or on the weekends), as this may result in a large number of calls to OpenLCR and a higher phone bill.

Symbols related to OpenLCR that may appear in the display are shown below.

OpenLCR has been temporarily turned off. See Temporarily turning off OpenLCR below.

Your fax did not receive the rate data because Open LCR was unable to identify your Caller ID. This problem could be noise on the phone line, or because your caller ID signal is blocked. Try retrieving the rate data several more times. If "C" appears, you have retrieved the rate data successfully. If you are still having problems, contact your phone company and make sure they support Caller ID. You can remove the "H" in your display by turning off the Open LCR function (press the OpenLCR key followed by #, 1, 8, 4, and #). You can also register for OpenLCR by phone to retrieve the rate data (see page 24).
