Sending a Document to a Relay Unit for Relay
Broadcasting

Follow this procedure to send a document to a relay unit.

NOTE

In this procedure, your machine is the originator.

Before Sending a Document to Another Machine for Relay Broadcasting

Confirm the following points on your machine:

• Make sure your own machine’s telephone number is correctly registered. (See

“Registering the Machine’s Telephone Number and Unit Name,” on p. 1-19.)

• Enter a subaddress.

Contact the other party, and confirm the following points about their machine:

• The relay unit must support ITU-T subaddress/password transactions.

• If you want a relay transmission report sent back to your machine from the relay unit,

instruct the other party to turn this feature ‘ON’ when they set up the relay function on
their machine.

• Make sure the relay unit has registered the telephone numbers of all destinations under

speed dialing keys.

• Make sure you have the correct subaddress for the relay unit’s machine.

• Confirm that the subaddress you have been given has been used to set up the other

party’s machine as a relay station. Your machine cannot confirm whether the other
party’s fax machine has been set up properly as a relay unit.

• If an ITU-T password is set on the other party’s machine, you must send the document

with the same ITU-T password. Otherwise, the other fax machine cannot receive your
document.

After the relay machine is set up to participate in a relay network, it should receive and
relay documents automatically. By following the initial setup procedures in the previous
section, the relay machine can be set to confirm the identity of the originator before
sending, and send a relay transmission report to the originator after the relay machine
relays the document.

NOTE

If your machine is the originator of a relay transmission, it does not check to make sure
that the machine that receives and relays the transmission is set up properly for a relay
broadcast. Even if the relay machine is not set up to relay your documents, your machine
reports such a transmission as a successful relay transmission. Personally, make sure
that the relay unit is set up correctly to relay documents that it receives from your
machine.
