10 Evaluating the Results of Your Scan
The following chart shows the normal results of a scan, sorted by type of device, level of effort, and
whether or not Single Call Detect (SCD) was used.
10.1 Expected Sweep Result Charts
The 5 charts below detail the call results (and interpreting some misidentifications) for each type of line,
when scanning both without and with Single Call Detect (SCD) for:
• Fax and Modems together
• Just Faxes
• Just Modems
The line types are:
• Voice
• Fax
• Modem
• Fax/Modem
• Second Dial Tone
The call result types are:
• Carrier = This line has a modem.
• Fax = This line has a fax machine.
• NO_Facsimile = This line is not a fax machine.
• None = No Call Made
• Timeout = either line did not pick up (Ring Timeout) or line was not identifiable after pickup. It
did not respond as Fax (when looking for Fax) or as a Carrier (when looking for Carrier).
• Tone = There is a second tone on this line.
• Voice = Voice (person or voice recording responded). When using NO SCD, voice lines are
identified as Timeouts.
The results below are those found during in-house testing of PhoneSweep; however, some telephone
systems will yield different results.
Please note: All line types initially have listed “Unknown” System ID next to them. If PhoneSweep
determines that a line is a) carrier (modem) and is b) able to identify the system or device on the
other side, then Unknown is changed to the identified System name.
