Wild Cards
This feature greatly enhances the effectiveness of the following feature:
Authorized Reception
In each of these features, you have to store the OWN NAME or FAX NUMBER
of various terminals that you normally receive fax messages from. Then, when
your machine detects an incoming call, it checks the OWN NAME or FAX
NUMBER of the other terminal, and acts accordingly.
When you program OWN NAME's for these features, you can program wild
cards to greatly expand the number of terminals that you can specify.
For example, if you wish to accept messages from all 150 branches of XYZ Com-
pany (using Authorized Reception), you do not have to store the OWN NAME
of each branch of XYZ Company. Program XYZ as a wild card for Authorized
Reception. If the OWN NAME's of all XYZ branches contain an XYZ some-
where in the OWN NAME, messages coming in from them will be accepted, and
sent on to head office.
Note
This feature cannot recognize spaces. If you store MAN as a wild card, and a
terminal with an OWN NAME that includes MANCHESTER, HUMAN, or
HUMANE calls you, your machine will recognize MAN as a wild card and
accept the message.
