F-Code Relay Broadcast Transmission

F-Code Relay Broadcast Transmission

The F-Code relay broadcast function allows the machine to act as a relay machine for a broadcast transmission. The end receiving machines are stored in the machine's F- Code relay memory box, and when the machine receives a relay request from another F-Code machine, it will relay the fax to all of the stored end receiving machines.

The relay machine and the originating machine that requests the relay transmission must both support F-codes; however, the end receiving machines programmed in the F-code relay broadcast memory box do not need to support F-codes.

The machine that originally sends the document is called the relay request machine, and the machine that has a memory box containing the end receiving machines and which relays the received document to those machines is called the relay machine.

The relay machine also prints the document sent by the relay request machine.

For example, corporate headquarters in Seattle wants to send the same document to branch offices in San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, and San Jose. If the San Fran- cisco office creates a relay broadcast memory box and programs the Oakland, Berke- ley, and San Jose offices as end receiving destinations, the overall phone charges will be lower than if the Seattle office uses the normal broadcast transmission function (page 5-30).This function can also be combined with a timer setting (page 5-33)to take advantage of off-peak rates, allowing a further reduction in phone charges.
