Description
country code for country where you are using the FaxFinder.
Answer On
When you set Routing to POTS Line, enter how many rings you want before the
modem will answer. For example, if you set this to 2, the modem will pick up the line
after it detects two full ring sequences.
If you set Routing to DTMF Digits or a PBX mode code, the modem will ignore the
Answer On value. PBX mode code and DTMF Digit routing always pick up after one
full ring sequence.
Max Extension
Digits
Used when the Routing parameter is set to DTMF Digits or a PBX mode code. Enter a
value that matches the number of digits to be passed by the line/PBX to the
FaxFinder modem port. The supported range length of a DTMF string is from 1 to 15
digits.
Routing
This applies to inbound fax calls from the PSTN. This setting determines whether or
not the modem should look to the line (for example a PBX ext. line plugged into the
modem) for DID routing information in the form of DTMF digits. This setting directly
effects how other Inbound Routing fields should be configured.
Note: When you select DTMF Digits or PBX Mode Code routing, the modem
listens up to 15 seconds for all the expected DID routing information. If it
detects only a portion or none of the expected digits after 15 seconds the
modem will declare a timeout and proceed to make fax answer tones. After
the fax is received, the fax will be delivered as if POTS Line is the selected
routing technique.
Select from the following three options:
POTS Line
Select this to configure the modem to act in a more traditional fax
answering role, where the modem does not look for DID routing
information from the line/PBX. When the modem receives a fax,
FaxFinder delivers it based on options defined for this line
number in the Lines section of the Inbound Routing page.
DTMF Digits
Select this to configure the modem to listed for DID routing
information from the PBX/line. DID information needs to be a
string of DTMF digits. The FaxFinder model will make fax answer
tones after it hears the expected number of DID digits (Max
Extension Digits). After the modem receives the fax, FaxFinder
scans the Inbound Routing Recipients, looking to match the DID
number it heard with entries in the Recipients table to determine
delivery options.
___Mode Code
PBX Mode Code routing is similar to DTMF Digits, except the
DTMF digits/tones coming from the PBX contain additional
information the FaxFinder doesn’t use. FaxFinder needs to know
the format of incoming mode codes to identify and extract the
DID extension number imbedded within in.
FaxFinder includes PBX Mode Codes for some device
manufacturers. If the codes for your device are not included,
select User Defined and add the code to the Routing Definition
field.
