Default tray set to Manual: Default tray set to Automatic: Relay broadcast Your fax machine (initiator) can relay a document, in other words, transmit a document to your subscribers via a remote fax and with a precise relay list. To do this the initiator fax and the remote fax must both have the relay function. To relay you need to supply the remote fax with the document and the relay list number. The remote fax will then transmit this document to all subscribers on the list. Once the relay is activated by your fax and as soon as the document is received by the remote fax, the document is printed before relaying to all subcribers on the list. To activate relay from your fax machine: 1Insert the document to relay. 2Select 37 - FAX / BROADCAST. 3Enter the remote fax number where you will relay to or choose your dialling mode and press OK. 4Enter the relay list number used by the remote fax and press OK. 5You may enter the time you wish to transmit the document next to the current time and press OK. 6If you wish to modify the document feed type, select one of the options FEEDER or MEMORY, then press OK. 7If you wish, you may enter the number of pages of your documents before transmitting. 8Activate relay by pressing key .

MBX 00 is public. It is handled directly by the terminal to record the messages of the fax TAD as soon as this is put into service. MBX’s 01 to 31 are private. Each is password- protected. They can be used to receive documents confidentially. The use and access to MBX 01 - 31 are conditioned by the initialisation, defined by a MBX code (if needed) and a mnenonic (its S.I.D.). Later you may: • modify the features of an MBX, • print the contents of an MBX, only possible if the MBX contains one or more documents (with a star next to the MBX).
