Understanding the FaxPress External Document Connector
Overview of the FaxPress External Document
Connector
The FaxPress External Document Connector (EDC) is a module for
the FaxPress server that monitors the MFP repository folder for
documents to process and transmit. The FaxPress External
Document Connector processes documents using a set of steps
called a “DataFlow.” The DataFlow is comprised of several distinct
processes called “Flowpoints.” Each Flowpoint monitors a specific
folder for fax documents, acts on the documents, and then passes
them on to the next Flowpoint.
Using the FaxPress EDC Monitor
The FaxPress External Document Connector includes a
management tool called the FaxPress External Document
Connector Monitor (FaxPress EDC Monitor). Use the FaxPress
EDC Monitor to monitor the status of the connectors and
processors under the control of the FaxPress EDC, add and delete
processor services, and configure the FaxPress EDC components.
Caution The FaxPress EDC Monitor application does not display errors
that occur with individual processors. It will only report specific job files
that have encountered errors. To check for errors in the FaxPress External
Document Connector’s processors, you must review the Event Log.
Accessing the FaxPress EDC Monitor
This section describes how to access the FaxPress EDC monitor.
To run the FaxPress EDC Monitor program, select Start >
