Relay Broadcast

The FO-5700 can also act as a relay station. It will receive a document from a fax machine requesting a relay transmission, and automatically broadcast it to the stations that the requesting machine specifies. To enable a fax machine to request a relay transmission, you must first enter its fax number in the Relay Passcode List. Follow the steps below to enter or clear a fax number. When your fax receives a relay request from another fax machine, RCVD RELAY REQUEST will appear in the display. If the telephone billing function is turned on, the fax machine cannot act as a relay station. To clear a fax number from the Relay Passcode List, you need to know the 2-digit number which identifies it. You can check this number by printing out the Passcode List (see Chapter 7).
4:RELAY PASSCODE 1=SET, 2=CLEAR
all-FO4700.book Page 86 Friday, June 11, 1999 1:57 PM
Press 1 to enter a number, or 2 to clear a number.

Enter the fax number of the machine to be added to the list (max. 20 digits). 3
Return to Step 3 to enter or clear another number, or press the STOP key repeatedly to return to the date and time display.
all-FO4700.book Page 87 Friday, June 11, 1999 1:57 PM

Polling

Polling allows you to call another fax machine and have it send a document to your machine without operator assistance. In other words, the receiving fax machine, not the transmitting fax machine, initiates the transmission. You can use your fax machine to both poll and be polled by others.

Press the STOP key repeatedly until you return to the date and time display.
all-FO4700.book Page 112 Friday, June 11, 1999 1:57 PM

Batch Transmission

Batch transmission allows you to store a number of documents in memory for automatic transmission to one location at a set time. If you often send documents to a particular location, this function helps reduce telephone line costs by allowing you to conveniently send multiple documents on one connection.
Note: If the telephone billing function is turned on, the batch transmission function cannot be used.

Programming a Batch Key

To perform a batch transmission, you must first program the number of the receiving machine and the time of transmission into a Batch Key. Any Rapid Key which has not already been programmed can be used as a Batch Key. If you specify a day-of-the-week in your program, the transmission will be performed every week on that day. If you do not specify a dayof-the-week, the transmission will be performed every day. To program a Batch Key, follow the procedure for entering programs explained in Entering and Using Programs in this chapter. In Step 10 of the initial prodedure, select Batch transmission.

Clearing a Batch Key

To clear a Batch Key, follow the procedure explained in Clearing a Program Key in Entering and Using Programs in this chapter.
Storing documents for transmission
Up to 56 jobs (a job can consist of multiple pages) can be held in memory for batch transmissions at any one time, regardless of the number of Batch Keys used. When you store a document, it is given a message number to distinguish it from other documents sent in the same batch.
all-FO4700.book Page 113 Friday, June 11, 1999 1:57 PM
If no documents have been stored under a Batch Key when the time for transmission arrives, transmission will not take place.
Press the appropriate Batch Key. After scanning, the message number assigned to your document will appear in the display.
01 A 09 I 17 Q 25 Y 02 B 10 J 18 R 26 Z SPACE SHIFT SP CLEAR 03 C 11 K 19 S D 12 L 20 T E 13 M 21 U F 14 N 22 V G 15 O 23 W H 16 P 24 X 32

Setting 33: SEPARATE MODE If desired, you can have the fax draw a sheet of paper from the paper tray after each fax reception. By loading colored (or large) paper in the paper tray, each colored sheet drawn will act as a separator that makes it easy to distinguish where one multi-page document ends and another begins. A Transaction Report printed after a reception will also be printed from the paper tray to act as a separator sheet. Press 1 to turn on this function (be sure to load appropriate paper in the paper tray), or 2 to turn it off. (Note that this function will not operate for copy jobs and print jobs from a computer. Also, the function will turn off automatically if the paper tray runs out of paper.) Note for FO-4700: This setting will only appear if your dealer has installed the paper cassette option.
Note: If you turn off the Separate Mode setting, Option Setting 16 will subsequently appear in the display to allow you make an appropriate setting for cassette selection. If you dont make a selection, 1:AUTO SELECTION will be automatically selected.
Setting 34: POWER SAVE MODE This option sets the method for turning on Power Save Mode. Press 1 to select REAL TIME (turn Power Save Mode on and off by pressing the POWER SAVE key), or 2 to select TIMER (automatic on and off at preset times). For more detailed information, see Power Save Mode in Chapter 5. Initial setting: 1
