Beyond the Basics
F-Code transmission and polling
With F-Code, your machine can send secure transmissions, perform relay broadcast
initiations and even poll from other
ITU - T -equipped machines, regardless of manu-
facturer.
You can do this two ways:
• Using the programmable one-touch key (see pages 2.40–2.42)
• Entering the
ITU - T sub-address and password directly, which is what we’ll
describe here.
Note: For F-Code communication to work, three things must be true:
• The remote fax machine must support ITU - T sub-addressing
• The remote fax must have a mailbox with an ITU - T sub-address created
on it
• You must know the ITU - T sub-address and password (if any) for the
remote machine’s mailbox

9 Enter the fax number either by pressing a
one-touch key, entering a speed-dial number
or dialling from the numeric keypad.
Important: Do not press START , if you want
to delay this transmission.
10 What you do now depends on when you want
the transmission to begin.

then press [Enter].

If in step 10 you chose an immediate transmission, your fax machine begins
dialling. If you chose a delayed command, the machine shows “Reserved” on the
LCD ,
indicating that it has stored the command in memory and will complete it later.
