Wild Cards

This feature greatly enhances the effectiveness of the following features:
❐ Authorized Reception
❐ Forwarding
❐ Specified Cassette Selection

In each of these features, you have to store the RTI or CSI of various terminals
that you normally receive fax messages from. Then, when your machine detects
an incoming call, it checks the RTI or CSI of the other terminal, and acts
accordingly.

When you program RTIs for these features, you can program wild cards to greatly
expand the number of terminals that you can receive from.

Example:
If you wish to accept messages from all 150 branches of XYZ Company (using
Authorized Reception), print them on yellow paper (using Specified Cassette
Selection), and forward them on to head office (using Forwarding), you don’t have
to store the RTI of each branch of XYZ Company. Program "XYZ" as a wild card
for each of these functions. If the RTIs of all XYZ branches contain an "XYZ"
somewhere in the RTI, messages coming in from them will be accepted, printed
on yellow paper, and sent on to head office.

CAUTION
This feature cannot recognize spaces.
Example:
If you store MAN as a wild card, and a terminal with an RTI that includes
MANCHESTER, HUMAN, or HUMANE calls you, your machine will recognize
MAN as a wild card and accept and/or forward the message.
