5 Operation: Send and receive fax with a facsimile device
!
You can send and receive G3 fax with a standard analogue facsimile device which
is connected to the
Fax/Modem/Phone
port of the TELSAT GPRS.
Please install and operate the facsimile device in accordance to its user manual.
!
If you want to send or receive a fax with a Personal Computer, which is connected
to the RS-232 port or USB port, you have to configure the TELSAT GPRS
accordingly.
Please note:
The “wireless telephone line” provided by the TELSAT GPRS has special
characteristics you should know:
•
Please configure the connected facsimile device so that an incoming call is
answered after the first, second or the third RING signal - not later. Otherwise you
may have problems to receive a fax.
•
In case of a faulty fax transmission to a remote party, it might happen
nevertheless that your facsimile will report that the transmission was
successful. So in the case of faulty fax transmission the TELSAT GPRS
will send an error message report to your facsimile device to correct this
problem. Only if you are not receiving such an error message report, you
can be sure, that the fax was transmitted successfully. You can also
activate a mode, that you will receive a transmission report (transmission
successful / not successful) after each fax transmission to a remote
party.
!
•
While receiving a fax from a remote party, it might happen that the sending party
already receives the confirmation that the fax has been transmitted to you
successfully even though you did not yet receive it completely for any reason (i.e.
out of paper). In such a case the undelivered part of the fax will be stored inside the
TELSAT GPRS. It will indicate this by both FAX Warning LEDs rapidly flashing (see
The LEDs on the device
on page 8). The TELSAT GPRS will do some retries to
deliver the rest of the received facsimile. If it is not successful, it continues to
indicate this by both FAX Warning LEDs rapidly flashing.
You can request the delivery of the partly stored fax by entering a DTMF command
by a connected telephone set (see below
In case of a FAX Warning
, page 19).
5.1
To receive a Test Fax
To check if your facsimile device can receive a fax from the TELSAT GPRS correctly,
you can make a test:
#*111#
A test fax of 1 page will be transmitted from the
TELSAT GPRS to your facsimile device.
means: wait for the confirmation tone (up to 3 sec):
a high pitched beep signals: OK
a low frequency beep-beep signals: Wrong entry.
