Panasonic KX-F3100 - Manual (Page 125)

Network Communication
The network communication feature eliminates fax transmissions to unauthorized parties, and
helps to prevent reception from unauthorized stations. This feature is effective in preventing
“junk mail” faxes.
When the network communication feature is used, the identical network passcode of 4 digits
must be programmed on both sides of the line. The unit checks the passcode before
transmitting or receiving a document.
The unit provides two types of passcode check modes as below.
■ Transmission passcode check mode:
Activate this mode to restrict document transmission. If the passcode sent from the other
machines does not match with the one programmed in your unit, transmission will not take
place.
■ Reception passcode check mode:
Activate this mode to restrict document reception. If the passcode sent from the other
machines does not match with the one programmed in your unit, reception will not take place.
IMPORTANT:
- These features are effective between compatible facsimile machines that have the same
passcode. Concerning the compatibility, see page 8.
NOTE:
- The passcode for the polling feature is not related to this network communication feature.
They are independent features.
Using the network passcode
Before communication begins, check that your passcode and the other station's passcode are
identical. See page 125 to program the passcode.
■ To transmit a document to a designated station oniy;
Set the transmission passcode check mode to on (see page 126).
