Enabling / Disabling Automatic Call Forwarding
HotWire EasyFAXcan automatically send incoming faxes to another number, retaining the original copy on your system hard disk. If you're going to be at a customer's site or at home and are expecting an important fax, you can enable the call forwarding feature and select the number of the fax machine (or modem) where you are going to be. When a fax is received, a copy is automatically forwarded to this number so that the fax shows up immediately at the remote location.
To enable Automatic Call Forwarding you must choose the Admin->Call Forward option from the HotWire EasyFAX main menu. If Call Forwarding is already enabled you'll see a checkbox next to the Call Forward option on the Admin pulldown menu and if not, there will be no checkbox there.
Selecting the Call Forward option causes a small dialog to pop up requesting your preferences for this call forwarding. You are presented with a combobox from which you must choose the destination for the call forwarding. Your destination MUST have been previously entered into the destinations database via the Destination pulldown off the main menu. Then select whether you want the call forwarding to be enabled or disabled. When you're all done press the OK button. Press the CANCEL button to discard any changes you have made.
Faxes can also be forwarded manually, on demand. See "Forwarding or CC-ing a fax" in the Receiving Faxes section. Remember to turn off the call forwarding feature when you return to your office. Version 3 will have an automatic start and cutoff date-time field for automatic enable/disable of this feature.
