Using Messages
To receive data files
When the Communication Center is on, it receives data files
automatically. New data messages are stored in the New folder of fhe
default mailbox. Data messages you have \ iewed or saveef are moved to
the Old folder.
To force the Communication Center to answer in data mode, select the
Answ'er as data only option in the Answering tab of the Options menu.
Note that with this setting, the Communication Center does not receive
voice messages or faxes. To enable voice and fax reception again, change
this setting back Complete Answering Machine.
If someone wants to send a data file to the Communication Center from a terminal
program, they must add ”09" to the end of the number they dial. The "09" tells the
Communication Center to switch into data mode. If the Communication Center is not
answering data calls correctly, the sending party should try adjusting the number of
commas before the "09" so that the "09" will be transmitted while the Communication
Center is playing the greeting. Each comma normally produces a two-second pause in
terminal programs. If the sender is also running the Communication Center program, it is
not necessary to add "09“ because the Communication Center sends "09" automatically.
However, the sender may want to change the Delay After Dialing setting in Options/Data to
adjust the length of the pause before the "09" is transmitted.
