RECEPTION FUNCTIONS
Transfer Station
Transfer Stations allow you to expand
the standard features of your fax ma-
chine to set up complex networks.
Transfer Stations must be machines of
the same make.
The diagram below may make the
concept clearer.
The following terminology is used in
this section.
❖
❖❖
❖
Requesting Party
The machine where the message
originates from, i.e. the machine
making a Transfer Request.
❖
❖❖
❖
Transfer Station
The machine that forwards the in-
coming message to another desti-
nation, i.e. the machine that
receives the Transfer Request. In
this section this refers to your ma-
chine.
❖
❖❖
❖
End Receiver
The final destination of the mes-
sage, i.e. the machine that the
Transfer Station sends to. End Re-
ceivers must be programmed into
Quick Dials, Speed Dials or
Groups in the Transfer Station
(this machine).
Limitation
❒ Polling ID's of the Requesting Par-
ty and Transfer Station must be
identical for this feature to work.
❒ This machine will not receive a
Transfer Request unless it has
enough free memory to store two
or more destinations dialed from
the number keys.
❒ If the Requesting Party specifies a
Group for the End Receivers and
the total number of End Receivers
exceeds 200, the Transfer Station
cannot transfer the message and
sends a Transfer Result Report to
the Requesting Party.

Multi-step Transfer
The principles of Transfer Stations
can be used to build up a multi-step
facsimile network where messages
are passed through several Transfer
Stations. By programming the end re-
ceivers in a Transfer Station Group,
you can enable this machine to trans-
fer messages onto other Transfer Sta-
tions.
For more information, contact your
service representative.
This feature can only be used if the
machines are made by the same mak-
er.
Note
❒ The optional Fax Feature Expand-
er is required for this function.
