“Modem Configuration: POTS Modem” Screen Field Definitions (cont’d)
Field Name Values Description
Dial Prefix Numeric string,
5 characters, max.
Use of a comma is
optional. The comma
denotes a brief delay to
establish dial tone for an
outside line.
When the FaxFinder is used on a phone line in a
PBX or key system, this is the digit that must be
dialed to access an outside line (that is, a line on
the PSTN rather than extensions of the PBX or
key telephone system). The digit “9” is most
frequently used.
If “9” is specified in this field, clients will not need
to include the “9” in the individual entries in their
address books or when ‘Adding Recipients’ in the
FaxFinder Send Fax
screen.
The FaxFinder administrator must inform clients
as to whether they must include or omit the “9”
when entering fax numbers.
Fax Debugging on, off This field allows you to turn on or off a fax
debugging feature. When Fax Debugging is on,
the FaxFinder produces detailed technical
reports on failed faxes. Generally, this feature is
for use by the user in conjunction with MultiTech
tech support personnel. This feature helps to
identify and clarify unusual or difficult problems
that may occur.
Init String in AT command format In this field, the administrator can enter AT
commands that the FaxFinder modem will
implement each time the modem is initialized
(between each fax call).
Update (button) Click on this button to implement configuration
changes on the FaxFinder modem. That is, after
changing any fields in the Modem
Configuration
screen, you must click the
Update button for those changes to be activated.
Update All Modems
(button) This button updates changes to all modems of
the FaxFinder.
Max DTMF Digits 1-15 Indicates the maximum number of dual-tone
multiple frequency phone-dialing digits that can
be received by the FaxFinder in this system.
Default = 4.
Fax ID alphanumeric;
20 characters, max.
The value in this field will be printed at the top of
each page of the transmitted fax. The value in
this field is usually the phone number of the line
to which the POTS modem is attached.
However, any alphanumeric string up to 20
characters is allowed. Sometimes company
names or abbreviations are included in this
string. Some governments may require that the
originating phone number be printed on each fax
page.
This field can be linked to the client software.
The client-user can choose the value of this field
for his/her Fax ID by going to File | Options |
Identification | Fax Header Local ID
and
selecting the value “Default (modem Fax ID).”
