RECEPTION

AUTOMATIC RECEPTION

Automatic reception enables you to automatically receive documents even when you are out.

o The facsimile machine is on. The message “AUTOMATIC RX” appears on the second line of the display.

1. When you receive a call, the telephone rings, then the facsimile machine activates automatic document

reception.

The message “IN RX” appears on the first line and the correspondent’s number appears on the second

line.

7 : R X P O L L I N G

2. Once reception has been completed, the facsimile machine beeps and returns to stand-by mode.

If the “LAST RX REPORT” parameter has been enabled in the operating configuration, the facsimile

machine will print the report at the end of reception.

If the machine beeps and the error LED comes on during reception, this means that an error has occurred

(e.g. an interruption in the connection). If this is the case, press STOP to switch off the LED and call the

correspondent to ask him to send the document again.

POLLING RECEPTION

By using the “polling” method, a facsimile machine can ask another facsimile machine to send a document.

The receiving facsimile machine calls the facsimile machine in possession of the document and requests

transmission.

The receiver is charged for the call instead of the sender.

This function therefore enables you to receive a document even if the user in possession of the document is

out.

To prevent this function from being activated by unauthorized persons, the user in possession of the document

can control polling by setting a password (which corresponds to the CSI of the receiving machine). In this way,

the document can only be received if the receiving and transmitting facsimile machines have the same polling

identifier. This function is called reserved polling.

A polling request may be made to several facsimile machines (maximum 10). This function is called broadcast

or serial polling.

This section explains how to set polling reception. To cancel a polling reception operation, see the

“Connection activities” section of the “ACTIVITY HANDLING” chapter.

o The facsimile machine is on. There is no document in the ADF. The two facsimile machines have the

same polling identifiers, or a free polling operation is about to be performed.
