9-2 Chapter 9 Using a Relay Network
What is Relay Broadcasting?
In a relay broadcast, the originator fax unit sends a document over a long
distance to another fax called the relay unit. After the relay unit receives your
document, it automatically sends the document to several other fax units in the
local area. In this way you can send a document to several fax units in the same
locality with only one long distance transmission.
Originator
Relay Unit
In a relay network your fax unit can function as both an originator and a relay
unit. When your fax unit is the originator, it sends a document to a relay unit
from which the document is relayed to several destination in the same locality.
When your fax unit is the relay unit it receives a document from another party
and relays it to one or several other faxes in your own locality.
Setting Up and Using a Standard Relay Unit
In this section we will show you how to set up and manage a relay network with
the standard relay features provided on the fax.

your fax for a speed dialling button. ( Q14-2)

document to one or several destination units. Make sure the telephone
numbers of all the destination units are registered on your unit for speed
dialling buttons. (
