FAX Commands

This chapter describes the AT commands used for fax communications. Please note that fax related commands

are not supported by Java.

If the ME is acting as a fax modem for a PC based fax application (e.g. "WinFax") it is necessary to select the

proper Service Class (Fax Class) provided by the ME. The ME reports its Service Class capabilities, i.e. the cur-

rent setting and the range of services available. This is provided by the

AT+FCLASS

command.

Service Classes supported by the ME:

During an active fax connection the AT parser functionality on the used channel is limited to the AT commands

which according to the ITU V.250 and T.31 specifications are mandatory for fax communications. The functions

of these AT commands are usually supported by commonly used fax applications.

received a different signal (tone or carrier) than expected. This

allows the DTE to recover by requesting the DCE to look for an

alternative tone or carrier signal.
