Masking the PIN
To prevent unauthorized long-distance calls, some office telephone systems require
you to enter a personal identification number (
PIN
) whenever you dial long distance.
Your fax s
PIN
mask feature helps you keep that
PIN
number private. With the
PIN
mask activated, you can dial a fax number plus a
PIN
, but the
PIN
will not appear in
a journal, error message printout, delayed command list or a
TCR
. The
PIN
may be up
to eight characters in length. It also can include the * or # symbols, and it can be
entered from the numeric keypad.
There are three possible settings for the
PIN
mask:
Off Turns off the
PIN
mask feature. Any
PIN
you enter will appear on any dis-
play or printout which shows the number you dial.
Mode 1 Each remote fax unit has a departmental
PIN
access code.
Mode 2 Each fax user has a departmental
PIN
access code.
Note: If you select Mode 1 and you will use a one-touch or speed-dial number, you
must store the remote unit s
PIN
access code within that number. However, if
you select Mode 2, this isn t necessary. (See Autodialing while using the
PIN
mask, next column for further details.)
Note: If you select either Mode 1 or Mode 2 and will be using batch transmission
(see pages 3.12 3.14), you must store the
PIN
access code for the remote unit
within the appropriate batch box.
