F-Code password This code must also be entered by the transmitting party during an F-Code Based Confidential Transmission and F-Code Based Relay Broadcast Transmission. The F-Code password is used to designate the password of the desired box (equal to the F-Code Confidential Box or the F-Code Relay Box, as appropriate, in this fax) that is registered in the other party's fax. The acceptable length of the F-Code password differs depending on model and maker of the fax machine and, if the entered numbers do not match within the parameters of the fax machine that has the shortest acceptable length, F-Code Based Communication will not be successful. Consult with the other party and compare the parameters of both faxes before actually attempting an F-Code Based Communication. In this fax, the F-Code password can be up to 20 digits in length and can include any combination of the numerals 0 - 9 and the symbols * and #. Note If you are going to receive documents into an F-Code Confidential Box registered in this fax, F-Code Based Confidential Communication is possible even if the transmitting party does not enter an F-Code password. In order to receive documents into an F-Code Relay Box, however, the transmitting party must enter the appropriate F-Code password. If you are going to transmit documents from this fax using the Bulletin Board function and if you register '0000' as the F-Code password for that operation, the receiving party will not need to enter an F-Code password during the actual reception procedure. What are F-Code Boxes? By using codes developed for F-Code based Communication, more functional fax communications such as Confidential Communication and Relay Broadcasting are possible with facsimiles made by other manufacturers. In order to accomplish this, you register in the memory of your fax, in advance, a memory box and use that box to transmit documents to, and receive documents from, the other party. That memory box is called an 'F-Code Box' in this handbook and there are two such boxes in this fax: an 'F-Code Confidential Box' when it is designated for F-Code Based Confidential Communication and an 'FCode Relay Box' when it is designated for F-Code Based Relay Communication.
