FACSIMILE PERFORMING F-CODE COMMUNICATION This section explains how to perform F-code communication operations. F-code communication is possible with machines of other manufacturers that also support F-code communication. F-CODE COMMUNICATION Exchange of confidential documents (confidential communication), retrieval (polling) and distribution (polling memory) of information, distribution of information to multiple destinations (relay broadcast transmission) are possible with other machines that support F-code communication. An F-code* is specified in each communication, enabling a higher level of security. * F-code is a communication function based on the G3 standard of the ITU-T. The ITU-T is a United Nations organization that establishes communications standards. It is a department of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), which coordinates global telecommunications networks and services. HOW F-CODES WORK A fax that is transmitted with an F-code is received to the memory box in the receiving machine specified by the F-code (sub-address and passcode). If the F-code sent by the transmitting machine does not match the F-code in the receiving machine, reception will not take place. The fax is received to the memory box specified by the F-code Memory box for F-code communication Fax number of other machine + F-code Sub-address: AAAAAAAA Passcode: XXXXXXXX Box name: Sub-address: Passcode: BBBB AAAAAAAA XXXXXXXX The products of other manufacturers may use different terms for "sub-address" and "passcode". If you need to contact the operator of another machine regarding sub-addresses and passcodes, refer to the terms used by the ITU-T in the table below. The machine ITU-T Sub Address F-code polling memory box SEP F-code confidential box SUB F-code relay broadcast memory box SUB Passcode PWD SID SID An F-code consists of a sub-address and passcode, and cannot be longer than 20 digits. 4-108 Contents
