Additional Devices: You can connect ad-

ditional devices to your fax machine, such

as answering machines, telephones, charge

meters and computer modems; these can

be connected either in series or in parallel.

Parallel connection means that the devices

are connected to another telephone socket

of the same line. If you connect the devices

to the external socket of your fax machine,

they are connected in series.  e fax switch

of your device can control and regulate

only devices connected in series.

Broadcasting: With this function, you can

send a fax or an SMS message to multiple

recipients.

Call Toggling: You can switch back and

forth between diﬀ erent telephone conver-

sations by using the

R/PAUSE key.  e

inactive telephone conversation is main-

tained in the interim, and the other party

cannot listen in.  is additional service

must be enabled for your telephone line

(see Call Waiting, see Flash Key).

Call Waiting: If another caller places a call

to you while you are having a telephone

conversation, you will hear a tone and the

symbol

will appear on the display. If

additional services are enabled for your

telephone connection, you can toggle back

and forth between diﬀ erent telephone calls

(see Flash Key; see Call Toggling).

Call-by-Call: Selection of the telephone

service provider for each telephone call. It

is possible to place telephone calls through

diﬀ erent private service providers. By plac-

ing preﬁ xes in front of the actual telephone

number, one can choose a diﬀ erent service

provider for each telephone call without

entering into a ﬁ rm contract relationship

(see Chain Dialling).

Caller Identification ( Calling Line

Identification Presentation, CLIP):

 ere are two types of caller identiﬁ cation.

If someone calls you, your fax machine

will show the caller’s telephone number

on the display. If you call someone, the

machine will send the number so that

your telephone number will be shown to

the person whom you are calling. Your

telephone company must oﬀ er both serv-

ices and must enable them for your PTT

line.  e transmission of your telephone

number can be turned on and oﬀ tempo-

rarily or it can be turned oﬀ permanently

(Calling Line Identiﬁ cation Restriction,

CLIR).

Caller List:  e numbers of the last ten call-

ers are stored in the caller list.  is func-

tion requires that the caller identiﬁ cation

function be enabled for your PTT line and

that the caller not suppress the transmis-

sion of his or her telephone number (see

Caller Identiﬁ cation).

tion (CLIP):

see Caller Identiﬁ cation

Chain Dialling: Before the dialling process

begins, you can freely combine and edit

telephone book entries, manually entered

digits, numbers from the redial list or

numbers from the caller list. For example,

if you have saved the telephone number

preﬁ x of an inexpensive telephone service-

provider (see Call-by-Call) as a telephone

book entry, select this entry and manually

enter the desired telephone number or se-

lect another number from the telephone

book, the redial list or the caller list.

Dialling Pause: see Fax Polling

Direct-Dial Number (also Exten-

sion):

Number used to directly dial a

speciﬁ c extension of a private branch ex-

change (see Private Branch Exchange).

Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF):

see Tone Dialling

Encoding:  e data of your fax transmis-

sion are encoded and compressed for the

transmission.  e minimum standard is

MH (Modiﬁ ed Huﬀ mann). Better encod-

ing methods are MR (Modiﬁ ed Read) or

MMR (Modiﬁ ed Modiﬁ ed Read).

Energy Saving Mode:  e laser fax

machine is normally in the energy save

mode. Whenever you receive a fax or if

you would like to print or make a copy,

your fax machine will automatically switch

back into operating mode (see Warm-Up

Phase).

Error Correction Mode (ECM):  e

ECM method reduces transmission er-

rors that result, for example, from bad

telephone lines, thereby reducing the du-

ration of transmissions. Both of the con-

nected fax machines must support ECM.

Fax Groups: Fax machines are classiﬁ ed in

terms of internationally standardised fax

groups based on their transfer type and

speed. Connections between two devices

of diﬀ erent groups is possible; the lowest

common transfer rate is selected.  e de-

termination of the speed takes place dur-

ing the handshake (see Handshake). Fax

groups 1 to 3 are analogue fax machines.

Nowadays, groups 1 and 2 are hardly to be

found any longer; fax machines of group

3—which have a transfer speed that ranges

from 9,600 to 33,600 bps—are currently

most standard. Group 4 fax machines are

digital devices that function exclusively on

ISDN systems.  ey have a maximum

transfer speed of 64,000 bps.

Fax Polling: With active fax polling, one

can retrieve a document from another

fax machine. For fax polling from a larger

company oﬀ ering several polling services,

you can also enter sub-addresses / direct-

dial numbers. In order to do this, you

must insert a dialling pause between the

fax number and the sub-address.

Fax Signal, also CNG Tone (Calling

Signal):  e tone that a fax machine

sends out to announce a fax transmis-

sion. When the CNG tone occurs, the fax

switch of the device recognises an incom-

ing fax call and starts the fax reception.

Fax Switch:  e fax switch checks incoming

telephone calls and controls the ringing be-

haviour of the fax machine. According to

the selected mode, fax transmissions will be

received either automatically or manually.

Flash Key (R/PAUSE Key): With the

ﬂ ash key, you can make use of additional

telephone services if these special func-

tions are enabled for your telephone line.

 e

R/PAUSE key has replaced the

hook-ﬂ ash function (see Call Waiting, see

Call Toggling).

Handshake:  e handshake is the initial

and ﬁ nal phase of a fax transmission.

After establishing of the connection,

fax machines check the group aﬃ liation

and features such as size compression or

grey tones. After the fax transmission has

been completed and before the connec-
