Useful transmission functions 6VarioLink 2221/2821/3621 6-25Useful transmission functions Chapter 66.13 F-codesThis machine is compatible with F-code transmissions. The following sectiondescribes the various functions that use F-codes.F-codesF-code transmissions are fax transmission functions that use “SUB” (sub-addresses), “SEP” (selective polling), and “PWD” (password), which are reg-ulated by the G3 standards of the ITU-T (International TelecommunicationUnion). Confidential box transmissions and bulletin board transmissions arepossible only with similar machines compatible with F-code transmission.Using the [*], [#], and [0] through [9] keys of the keypad, specify the following,as necessary.- SUB: Specify when transmitting using F-codes.- SEP: Specify when calling another fax machine to retrieve a documentfrom it (polling reception).- SID/PWD: Specify when limiting the recipient/caller with a password.!DetailIf an F-code is specified by directly typing it in, only one transmission withthe specified F-code can be completed per call. However, when sendingthe same fax to multiple recipients at the same time (broadcast transmis-sion), different F-codes cannot be specified for each recipient.If one-touch dial buttons are programmed with F-codes, the appropriateF-code can quickly be transmitted to the recipient.F-code confidential transmissionsBy programming F-codes, different confidential boxes can be created on thismachine. Since a password is required in order to retrieve documents re-ceived in the different confidential boxes, confidential faxes can safely besent and received.!DetailIn order to receive an F-code confidential document, the confidentialboxes must be registered in advance. For details, refer to “Registeringconfidential boxes” on page 9-32.
