Sending a Document to a Relay Unit for Relay
Broadcasting
Follow this procedure to send a document to a relay unit.
NOTE
In this procedure, your machine is the originator.
■ Before Sending a Document to Another Machine for Relay Broadcasting
Confirm the following points on your machine:
• Make sure your machine’s fax/telephone number is correctly registered. (See
“Registering This Machine’s Fax Number,” on p. 1-13.)
• Enter a subaddress.
Contact the other party, and confirm the following points about their machine:
• The relay unit must support ITU-T subaddress/password transactions.
• If you want a relay transmission report sent back to your machine from the relay unit,
instruct the other party to turn this feature ‘ON’ when they set up the relay function on
their machine.
• Make sure the relay unit has registered the telephone numbers of all destinations under
speed dialing keys.
• Make sure you have the correct subaddress for the other party’s machine.
• Confirm that the subaddress you have been given has been used to set up the other
party’s fax machine as a relay station. Your machine cannot confirm whether the other
party’s fax machine has been set up properly as a relay unit.
• If an ITU-T password is set on the other party’s machine, you must send the document
with the same ITU-T password. Otherwise, the other machine cannot receive your
document.
After the relay machine is set up to participate in a relay network, it should receive and
relay documents automatically. By following the initial setup procedures in the previous
section, the relay fax machine can be set to confirm the identity of the originator before
sending, and to send a relay transmission report to the originator after your machine
relays the document.
NOTE
If your machine is the originator of a relay transmission using this method, it does not
check to ensure that the
machine
to receive and relay the transmission is set up properly
for relay transmission. Even if the
machine
is not set up to relay your documents, your
machine reports such a transmission as a successful relay transmission. Make sure the
relay unit is set up correctly to relay the documents it receives from your machine.
