Panasonic KX-F160 - Manual (Page 71)

Network Communication
The main passcode network communication feature eliminates fax transmission to unauthorized
parties, and helps to prevent reception from an unauthorized station.
This feature is effective to prevent “Junk mail” faxes since only those units with the same
passcode can transmit to your unit.
When the network communication feature is used, the identical main passcode of 4 digits must be
programmed on both sides of the line. The unit checks the passcode before transmitting or
receiving a document.
The unit provides two types of passcode check modes. They are TX (transmission) passcode
check mode and RX (reception) passcode check mode.
■ TX Passcode Check:
Use this feature to restrict document transmission. If the passcode sent from the other
Panasonic compatible machines does not match with the one programmed in your unit,
transmission does not take place (see page 4-8 for TX passcode check setting).
■ RX Passcode Check:
Use this feature to restrict document reception. If the passcode sent from the other Panasonic
compatible machines does not match with the one programmed in your unit, reception does not
take place (see page 4-9 for RX passcode check setting).
NOTES;
•These features are effective only between Panasonic compatible machines that have the same
passcode.
•The password for the polling feature is not related to this network communication feature. They
are independent features.
