CHAPTER 2 INSTALLING ZFAX This chapter describes how to install ZFAX on your personal computer. Topics include: Disk space requirements System requirements Installation instructions Where to proceed DISK SPACE REQUIREMENTS In addition to having enough hard disk space to accommodate the installed ZFAX program, you will also need space to store your voice messages and fax files. This section describes how much hard disk space ZFAX requires. VOICE MESSAGES You will need enough hard disk space to accommodate voice messages you leave for your callers and the voice messages they leave you. Based on different voice compression algorithms, the space requirements for each 10 minutes of voice messages are shown in Table 2-1.

Voice Compression Algorithms As a rule of thumb, the more hard disk space a recording occupies, the better the voice recording quality. For general use, 2-bit ADPCM should suffice, unless you run low on hard disk space or are using a PLUS Series modem. However, if you have adequate hard disk space and voice quality is important to you, 3-bit ADPCM is the best choice. FAX FILES You will also need hard disk space for fax files that you receive. A one-page fax, for example, occupies about 50,000 bytes of hard disk space. Each megabyte can store about 20 fax pages. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Before you install ZFAX, make sure you have the following minimum system requirements. An IBM PC AT or 100% compatible system running at 12 MHZ or higher, with at least 640K of memory A ZyXEL 2864 Elite modem (internal or external) with firmware version A serial port with 16550 UART installed A monochrome or VGA display device MS-DOS version 3.00 or higher INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS After verifying the system requirements, use the following procedure to install ZFAX. 1.

CHAPTER 4 SETTING UP ZFAX ZFAX handles voice, fax, and data calls in various combinations. ZFAX's Distinctive Ring feature, combined with its mailboxes, offer various ways of accepting, transferring, and forwarding these three types of calls. After you start ZFAX and configure it to your requirements, you can use the guidelines in this chapter to set up ZFAX to handle your particular requirements. PREREQUISITES Before you use the procedures in this chapter to set up ZFAX, make sure that: ZFAX has been installed (refer to Chapter 2). Your modem is properly connected to your computer. If you have an external modem, make sure it is connected to your computer via an RS-232 hardware (CTS/RTS) flow control cable. If you are using either a U-1496B or U1496B PLUS internal modem, make sure it is installed correctly in your computer. Your modem is turned on. Your modem's dial-up telephone jack is connected to the telephone line. You have selected an appropriate communications port (COM port) and interrupt request (IRQ) for your modem. The remainder of this chapter will explain how to set up your ZyXEL modem as a dedicated fax machine, as a dual voice/fax system, or as a complete voice/fax/data system. For maximum versatility, you can mix and match these combinations to fit your needs. DEDICATED FAX MACHINE SETUP This procedure describes how to set up your ZyXEL modem as a dedicated fax machine. In this application, your ZyXEL modem will only receive faxes. In the simplest case, you can set the modem to answer all calls as if they were fax calls. In a more complicated setup, you can use the Distinctive Ring feature if you subscribe to your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service. For example, you can set Normal Ring to Voice System and Distinctive Ring Type 1 to Fax Only. Then, if your modem detects a Distinctive Ring Type 1, it will treat the call as a fax call; all other calls will be treated as voice calls. The following sections provide detailed procedures for dedicated fax machine setup. SPECIFYING DEDICATED FAX OPERATION WITH NO DISTINCTIVE RING To set up your modem to operate as a dedicated fax machine without using any Distinctive Ring features: 1. Select the Configure vertical menu and the System submenu, then press (). The screen in Figure 4-1 appears.

VOICE/FAX OPERATION This section describes the actions that occur when ZFAX is set up for voice/fax applications and an incoming ring is detected. This section assumes Distinctive Ring is disabled. 1. Your modem waits for the number of rings defined in Ring Counter to occur before answering the call. Note: If Caller ID is enabled, the modem waits until at least two rings are detected before answering. 2. After the modem answers the call, it starts playing the Main Greeting Message. 3. If the modem detects a fax call, it enters fax mode automatically and prepares to receive the fax. OR If the modem does not detect a fax call, it continues playing the Main Greeting until it either detects a DTMF tone or reaches the end of the greeting and prompts the caller to leave a message in the system mailbox. OR If the modem detects a DTMF tone, it performs the action you defined for that DTMF tone. RETRIEVING MESSAGES REMOTELY If ZFAX is set up for voice/fax applications, you can use the following procedure and a Touch-Tone telephone to retrieve voice messages from a remote location. You can also use the following procedure, a Touch-Tone telephone, and a fax machine to retrieve fax messages remotely. 1. Call your system and enter the DTMF tone that corresponds to the DTMF Voice Mailbox function. For example, if Voice Mail DTMF 5 is set to Mailbox, press 5 on the Touch-Tone telephone. ZFAX prompts you for a mailbox number. 2. Enter your mailbox number. ZFAX prompts you to leave either a voice or fax message. 3. Press * on your telephone. 4. Enter your 4-digit password. ZFAX prompts you to enter either "0" to retrieve voice messages or "1" to retrieve faxes. 5. To retrieve voice messages, press 0 on your telephone, then press # on your telephone to play the first message. After playing the first message, ZFAX gives you three options: Press # to proceed to the next message. (You can also use # to skip message.) Press * to delete the message you just heard. Press 2 to repeat the message you just heard. Note: If you delete a message, it will still be stored on your computer's hard disk. To permanently remove it, use the Voice Message Log (described in Chapter 8). 6. To retrieve faxes, press 1 on your telephone. Press the START button on your fax machine when ZFAX prompts you to do so. You will receive all the fax messages sent to your mailbox. Note: After you receive your faxes, you can no longer retrieve them remotely. However, in the unlikely event you fail to retrieve your faxes successfully, ZFAX will give you another chance to retrieve them. VOICE/FAX/DATA SETUP This section describes how to set up your ZyXEL modem to handle voice, fax, and data applications. This setup is ideal if you will be using a single telephone line to handle voice, fax, and data calls. This application is identical to setting up the modem as a voice/fax system, except that the data option is enabled. SETUP PROCEDURE To set up ZFAX for voice/fax/data applications: 1. Use the default Greeting Messages or record new ones (refer to Chapter 6). 2. Set up the mailboxes and their corresponding passwords (refer to Chapter 6). 3. Select the Configure vertical menu. 4.

Note: If Caller ID is enabled, the modem waits until at least two rings are detected before answering. 2. After the modem answers the call, it starts playing the Main Greeting Message. 3. If the modem detects a fax call, it enters fax mode automatically and prepares to receive the fax. OR If the modem does not detect a fax call, it continues playing the Main Greeting until it either detects a DTMF tone or reaches the end of the greeting and prompts the caller to leave a message in the system mailbox. OR If the modem detects a DTMF tone, it performs the action you defined for that DTMF tone. OR If the modem detects a data call, the entire Main Greeting is played. When the Main Greeting ends, the caller is prompted to leave a voice message. Since this is a data call, and Connect Data Action is set to Internal, ZFAX performs a data handshake with the caller and attempts to download files using ZMODEM. Any files downloaded from the caller are stored in the \INDATA subdirectory. Note: Depending on the length of the Main Greeting Message, you may want to advise data callers to increase the amount of time their modems will wait between handshaking and hanging up. To shorten the wait time until the handshaking starts, a caller can press a DTMF tone that starts ZFAX's Receive Data action. For example, if ZFAX has been configured so that DTMF tone 6 will place ZFAX into fax mode, a caller can issue the following command from the computer keyboard to the modem: ATDT17145551212,,,,6 In this command specifies the pause time before DTMF 6 is dialed (by default, each comma instructs your modem to pause 2 seconds). The 6 is the DTMF tone that places ZFAX into fax mode. VOICE/FAX/DATA SETUP WITH DATA SHELL This section describes how to set up your ZyXEL modem for voice, fax, and data applications using ZFAX's Data Shell feature. This setup is ideal if you will be using a single telephone line to handle voice, fax, and data calls and want callers to be able to access an external program you defined in ZFAX. 1.

Note: Depending on the length of the Main Greeting Message, you may want to advise data callers to increase the amount of time their modems will wait between handshaking and hanging up. To shorten the wait time until the handshaking starts, a caller can dial a DTMF tone that starts ZFAX's Receive Data action. For example, if ZFAX has been configured so that DTMF tone 6 will place ZFAX into fax mode, a caller can issue the following command from the computer keyboard to the modem: ATDT1714-555-1212,,,6 In this command "," specifies the pause time before DTMF 6 is dialed (by default, each comma instructs your modem to pause 2 seconds). The 6 is the DTMF tone that places ZFAX into fax mode. CHAPTER 5 FAX FUNCTIONS The core of ZFAX is its ability to send, receive, and manipulate faxes. ZFAX provides a number of ways to send faxes. For example, you can send text and images to remote fax machines immediately or at a scheduled date and time when telephone charges are low. You can also use ZFAX to send faxes directly from other applications, without having to switch to ZFAX. ZFAX also provides state-of-the-art features to maximize fax reception. For example, ZFAX provides a polling feature that lets you poll remote facsimile machines and retrieve documents from them without requiring an operator to be present at the remote location. You can also use ZFAX's TSR feature to automatically receive faxes in the background. This chapter describes how to use ZFAX's fax functions. Topics include: Fax setup Sending faxes Receiving faxes Viewing files Printing a fax Converting files to a different format Note: ZFAX also provides a FaxBack service, which lets callers retrieve faxes using their Touch-Tone telephones or leave their fax number allowing ZFAX to call back. For more information, see Chapter 6. FAX SETUP Before you send or receive faxes, select the hardware and fax setup for your particular requirements. You may also need to refer to your ZyXEL Modem User's Manual for information on configuring and using your ZyXEL modem. SENDING FAXES There are five ways to send faxes: Using the Send Fax function -- described in the next section. Scheduling a fax for transmission Sending a captured file immediately from another application. Using the Fax In Log -- Chapter 8. Using ZFAX's DOS command line function -- see Chapter 10.

In addition, the current status window displays the following fields to indicate the progress of the fax transmission: Elapse Time -- the duration of the connection. Connect Speed -- the speed of the fax connection. Resolution -- the image resolution and image compression method used. Page Size -- the size of the page being sent. Remote Station ID -- the ID (if any) of the remote fax machine. After the fax is sent, the transmission results appear in the Fax Out Log. You can access this Log from the main screen by pressing . This Log provides all the information shown in the current status window and indicates whether the fax was sent successfully. For more information, refer to Chapter 8. Note: If ZFAX encounters a busy signal or fails to connect with the remote fax machine, it automatically redials the fax number based on the Retry Counter value you entered (refer to Appendix A). ZFAX waits the number of seconds specified in the Retry Delay Timer option between each redialing attempt (refer to Appendix A). RECEIVING FAXES There are four ways to receive faxes: Automatically, by loading ZFAX as a TSR -- described in the next section. Manually, using the Start Receive function Polling a remote facsimile machine Using ZFAX's DOS command line function -- in Chapter 10. AUTOMATICALLY RECEIVING A FAX The following procedure describes how to set up ZFAX to receive faxes automatically, without requiring your intervention. 1. Prepare ZFAX for TSR mode (refer to Chapter 3). 2. Set the Ring Counter to the number of rings you want to have occur before ZFAX automatically answers incoming calls. Ring Counter must be set to at least 1. Refer to Appendix A for more information. 3. Set Normal Ring Answer to Fax Only if you want to set up ZFAX to handle only fax calls. In this mode, ZFAX acts as a dedicated fax machine and will only answer fax calls. 4. If you want ZFAX to handle fax calls as well as voice and data calls, set Normal Ring Answer to Voice System. Then, when ZFAX detects a fax CNG tone from the caller, it automatically handles the call as a fax call. Otherwise, ZFAX plays the entire Main System Greeting, after which it waits for the caller to leave a voice message. If the caller does not leave a message within 6 seconds, ZFAX assumes the call is from a modem and automatically performs a handshake with the caller in an attempt to establish a data connection. If the data connection succeeds, ZFAX uses the ZMODEM protocol to automatically download whatever files the caller is sending. If the data connection fails, ZFAX will attempt a fax handshake again. Note: When ZFAX receives an incoming fax or data call, it temporarily pauses computer operations to answer the fax or data call, then returns control to you when the call ends. MANUALLY RECEIVING A FAX Using the StartRcv submenu, you can place your ZyXEL modem into the fax manual receive mode. This submenu is convenient if you are talking with a remote fax operator who wants to send you a fax. After your voice conversation, you can use this submenu to transfer to fax mode and receive a fax from that operator. This submenu is also convenient if your ZyXEL modem is set up to answer voice and fax calls on the same line. If you answer an incoming call and hear a fax tone, use the following proceedure to use receive fax mode to receive the incoming document. 1. When your telephone rings, answer the call as you normally would. 2. If the call is a voice call, you can talk to the person as you normally would. If you hear fax tones, however, proceed to step 3. 3. If you hear fax tones, or if the person you are speaking with wants to send a fax, select the Fax vertical menu and the StartRcv submenu, then press . ZFAX enters fax manual receive mode and will receive the document sent by the remote fax operator. After the fax is received, the results appear in the Fax In Log. You can access this Log from the main screen by pressing . For more information, refer to Chapter 8. POLLING A FAX The Polling option lets you retrieve a document from a remote fax machine without requiring the intervention of a remote operator. To poll a remote fax machine, the remote fax machine must be set up to be polled. Note: You can also poll fax machines using ZFAX's DOS command line function (refer to Chapter 10). 1. Select the Fax vertical menu and the Polling submenu, then press (

CHAPTER 7 DATA COMMUNICATION FUNCTIONS ZFAX has a built-in terminal program, which supports ANSI terminal emulation, ZMODEM, and XMODEM file-transfer protocol. It also has a DOS Shell utility, which lets you start an external data communication program. Since ZFAX requires only 64k of base memory, this should leave you with more than enough memory to operate a full-scale communication program or Bulletin Board System after loading ZFAX. This chapter describes how to use ZFAX's data communication functions. Topics include: Setting up data communication functions Using an external terminal program Using ZFAX's terminal program Using ZFAX to send and receive files Receiving data files automatically Using ZFAX's shell features SETTING UP DATA COMMUNICATION FUNCTIONS If you have setup ZFAX for fax or voice mail operation, you are ready to use ZFAX's data communication features to exchange data with remote modems. Otherwise, make sure you have selected the proper hardware and modem setup, especially the COM Port setting, before proceeding. USING AN EXTERNAL TERMINAL PROGRAM For your convenience, ZFAX contains built-in Send and Receive Data functions, which allow you to exchange data with remote modems without having to exit ZFAX. For added versatility, ZFAX provides a built-in terminal program that lets your ZyXEL modem communicate with remote modems using the ZMODEM protocol. If you prefer to use functions available in another data communication program, you can use the procedure described in the next section to specify an external data communication program and then switch to that program directly from ZFAX. When you finish using the external program, you can exit and return to ZFAX. SELECTING AN EXTERNAL TERMINAL PROGRAM To use an external terminal program, you need only tell ZFAX where the external program resides on your computer's hard disk. 1. Select the Configure vertical menu and the Path submenu, then press (

PHONE BOOK ZFAX's terminal program uses the same Phone Book you set up in ZFAX. When you press +, the Phone Book appears over the screen. You can then use the <> and <> keys to select the number you want to dial and press to start dialing. To remove the Phone Book from the screen, press . LINE SETTING The internal terminal program supports two different line settings: E71 -- which stands for Even parity, 7 data bits, and 1 stop bit N81 -- which stands for No parity, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit. To toggle between these two line settings, press +. Note: The remote modem must use the same line settings to make a successful connection with your modem. FILE TRANSFER The ZFAX terminal program supports ZMODEM and XMODEM protocol. When ZFAX makes a data connection with a remote modem, appears in the rightmost area of the status bar. If you want to send (or "upload") files to the remote modem, press the key, select an appropriate protocol and specify in the File Name field which files you want to upload. Note: If you are using ZMODEM, you can upload up to four files during a single connection by separating the file names with semicolons (;) or by using +. If you want to receive (or "download") files from the remote modem using XMODEM, press key, select XMODEM protocol and specify download file name then move to and press . You do not need to do anything if you want to use ZMODEM to download files. Just allow the remote modem to start sending file(s) using ZMODEM, and ZFAX will automatically start the downloading process. All incoming files will be placed in the \INDATA subdirectory. EXITING When you want to exit ZFAX's terminal program: 1. Press +. A message asks if you really want to exit. 2. Press or to exit and return to ZFAX. OR Press to remain in the ZFAX terminal program. USING ZFAX TO SEND AND RECEIVE FILES For added convenience, ZFAX provides Send and Receive Data functions, which let you use the ZMODEM protocol to exchange data files with remote modems without having to exit to a terminal program. SENDING FILES The following procedure describes how to use the ZFAX menus to send data files to remote modems. Note: You can also use ZFAX's DOS command line function to send data files to remote modems (refer to Chapter 10). 1. Select the Data vertical menu and the SendFile submenu, then press ().

In the Protocol field, select a protocol that you want to send. 3. In the File Name field, enter the name of the file you want to send. Note: If you are using ZMODEM, you can upload up to four files during a single connection by separating the file names with semicolons (;) or using +. 4. Press the <<143>> key to move to Data Number. 5. Next to Data Number, enter the telephone number of the remote modem. OR If the telephone number is entered in your Phone Book, press to display the Phone Book and select the recipient. 6. Move to and press . ZFAX dials the specified telephone number and, when a data connection is made, transfers the selected files using ZMODEM. RECEIVING FILES The following procedure describes how to use ZFAX menus to receive files from remote modems. Note: You can also use ZFAX's DOS command line function to receive data files from remote modems (refer to Chapter 10). 1. Make a data connection with a remote modem. 2. Select the Data vertical menu and the ReceiveFile submenu, then press (). ZFAX automatically starts the downloading process using ZMODEM. All incoming files will be placed in the \INDATA subdirectory. RECEIVING DATA FILES AUTOMATICALLY The following procedure describes how to set up ZFAX to automatically receive data files from remote modems using the ZMODEM protocol, without requiring your intervention. 1. Prepare ZFAX for TSR mode 2. Select Ring Counter and type the number of rings you want to have occur before the modem automatically answers. For example, if you want your modem to answer calls after the second ring, type 002 and press . Note: This value must be greater than 000. 3. Set Normal Ring Answer to Data Only if you want to set up ZFAX to handle only data calls. In this mode, ZFAX acts as a dedicated modem and will only answer data calls. 4. If you want ZFAX to handle fax and voice calls as well as data calls, set Normal Ring Answer to Voice System. Then, when ZFAX detects a fax CNG tone from the caller, it automatically handles the call as a fax call. Otherwise, ZFAX plays the entire Main System Greeting, then it waits for the caller to leave a voice message. If the caller does not leave a message within 6 seconds, ZFAX assumes the call is from a modem and automatically performs a handshake with the caller in an attempt to establish a data connection. If the data connection succeeds, ZFAX uses the ZMODEM protocol to automatically download whatever files the caller is sending. If the data connection fails, ZFAX hangs up and waits for the next call. Note: When ZFAX receives an incoming fax or data call, it temporarily pauses computer operations to answer the fax or data call, then returns control to you when the call ends. USING ZFAX'S SHELL FEATURES ZFAX provides Data Shell, DOS Shell, and Ring Shell functions. Using these shells, you can specify other programs that callers can access through ZFAX. For example, if you receive calls from remote modems, you can set up one or more shells to transfer callers to a data communication program so that a data connection can be made with the calling modem. For added convenience, the Data Shell instructs ZFAX to handshake with callers in an attempt to make a data connection. The DOS and Ring Shells, on the other hand, do not; if any handshaking is to occur, it will be up to the program defined for these shells to perform it. The programs defined for all three shells are specified in the Path Setup screen shown in Figure 7-5. You can access this screen by selecting the Configure vertical menu and the Path submenu, and then pressing . The following sections describe the Data Shell, DOS Shell, and Ring Shell functions. For more information on setting up the ZFAX shells, refer to Appendix A. ³ Data Ü ³³°°ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿°°°°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°³ Zfax Working Path C:\ZFAX400 ³ °°³ ³ Voice Mail Ü ³³°°³ External Editor ³ °°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°³ External Terminal ³ °°³ ³ Tx/Rx Log Ü ³³°°³ Ring Shell Command ³ °°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°³ DOS Shell Command ³ °°³ ³ Utility Ü ³³°°³ Data Shell Command ³ °°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°ÔÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ; °°³ ³ Configure Ü ³³°°°° °°³ Figure 7-5 Note: If data connections fail once the shell program activates, you may need to send commands to your modem after ZFAX transfers control to the shell programs. These commands include: AT&N0 sets your modem to data mode. ATA sets your modem to answer mode and handshakes with the remote modem. For more information, refer to your ZyXEL Modem User's Manual. DATA SHELL After you use the screen shown in Figure 7-5 to define a program for the Data Shell, callers will be able to access that program through ZFAX's Voice Mail System and/or Distinctive Ring feature: Voice Mail If you specify Data Shell Out for one or more Voice Mail DTMF options in the Voice Mail Setup screen (shown in Figure 7-6), callers can press the appropriate DTMF button on their Touch-Tone telephones during the Main Greeting to access the Data Shell.

Distinctive Ring if you subscribe to your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service, and enable ZFAX's Distinctive Ring feature, callers can call a number whose ring type (1, 2, or 3) will alert ZFAX to answer in Data Shell mode. You enable ZFAX's Distinctive Ring Feature and specify the program to be started when a Ring Type 1, 2, or 3 is detected using the System Setup screen (shown in Figure 7-7). To access the System Setup screen, select the Configure vertical menu and the System submenu, then press . For more information, refer to Appendix A. Once the Data Shell is activated, ZFAX places your modem into data mode, then handshakes with the remote modem in an attempt to make a data connection. After the data connection is made, your modem starts the program defined for the Data Shell. If the data connection fails, your modem hangs up. The communication program in the Data Shell must specify a DTE speed of 38,400 Bps and hardware (CTS/RTS) flow control. Otherwise, communications with the remote modem will fail; in this case, use an external communications program that is configured to allow communications with the remote modem (refer to Chapter 6). DOS SHELL AND RING SHELL The DOS and Ring Shells have similarities with and differences from the Data Shell. Like the Data Shell, the DOS Shell can be specified as part of ZFAX's Voice Mail System and Distinctive Ring feature. Ring Shell, however, can only be specified as part of ZFAX's Distinctive Ring feature. Unlike the Data Shell, ZFAX will not perform any handshaking before starting the DOS and Ring Shells. Instead, ZFAX relies on the external program defined for these shells to perform any necessary handshaking in order to make a data connection with a remote modem. Note, however, that if you specify a data communication program for the Ring Shell, the incoming ring that activates this shell may also be used to start the communication program and answer the phone. (The manual that came with your data communication program should provide more information on ring activation.) For example, assume you want the Ring Shell program to be Procomm Plus, located in the \PCPLUS subdirectory on drive C. Also, assume that when Procomm Plus is activated, you want it to start a script file called DATA.ASP. To have these actions performed, type the following entry in the Ring Shell field shown in Figure 7-5: C:\PCPLUS\PCPLUS /fDATA.ASP Note: When using the Ring Shell in a data communication program, you can send the following commands to your modem once you shell out to the data communication program: AT&N0 sets your modem to data mode. ATA sets your modem to answer mode and handshakes with the remote modem. For more information, refer to your ZyXEL Modem User's Manual.

MANUALLY ANSWERING A CALL If you will be answering voice, fax, and data calls over a single telephone line, use the following procedure to answer calls manually. This procedure assumes that you do not know in advance whether a call is a voice, fax, or data call.

VOICE CALLS To manually answer a call: Select the Utility vertical menu and the ManAnswer submenu, then press (). OR Press . Your modem goes off-hook and answers the call. Then ZFAX plays the Main Greeting Message and performs one of the following actions: If the call is a voice call, the caller is given the option of accessing the menu of DTMF tones or leaving a message in the system mailbox after the beep. If the call is a fax call, ZFAX automatically enters auto fax receive mode, so long as the originating fax machine or the fax/modem is emitting fax tones. ZFAX then attempts to receive a fax from the remote fax machine or fax/modem. If the call is a data call and Connect Data Action is set to Data Shell or Internal (see page ), ZFAX performs a data handshake after determining that the call is neither a voice nor fax call and attempts to make a data connection with the remote modem. FAX CALLS To manually answer a fax call, select the Fax vertical menu and the StartRcv submenu, then press ().

USING THE PHONE BOOK For your convenience, ZFAX provides a Phone Book that can hold the fax, voice, and data telephone numbers you frequently dial. As an added convenience, you can define three groups. A group is a collection of recipients that have something in common. For example, if you frequently send faxes to your salespeople throughout the USA, you can divide them into regional groups. ZFAX will automatically send the fax to every individual recipient you have defined for that the group, without requiring you to dial each recipient individually. To access the Phone Book: 1.

CONFIGURATION This appendix describes how to configure ZFAX for your particular requirements. A few minutes spent here will ensure that you get the most out of ZFAX. Topics in this appendix include: Setting up application paths Setting up ZFAX. Setting up your hardware and modem. Setting up your Voice Mail System. Setting up fax options. Setting up the fax cover page. Setting up print capture options. SETTING UP APPLICATION PATHS. When you start ZFAX, a small part of the program is loaded into the computer's memory. When other ZFAX functions are needed, they are also automatically loaded into the computer's memory. In this way, ZFAX leaves as much memory as possible for your computer. Because ZFAX loads other functions as they are needed, you must inform ZFAX where those different functions reside. For example, ZFAX's Ring Shell function allows ZFAX to start a program and transfer callers to that program when a certain (or distinctive ) ring is detected. You can tell ZFAX which program to start and transfer callers to by specifying the complete path (drive and subdirectory) where the program resides. ZFAX also supports an external editor for text-editing purposes. You can specify the path where your text editor or word processor resides and then perform text editing without having to exit ZFAX. To access path setup: 1. Select the Configure vertical menu and the Path submenu, then press (

). OR Press +. The screen shown in Figure A-1 appears. ³ Data Ü ³³°°ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿°°°°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°³ Zfax Working Path C:\ZFAX400 ³ °°³ ³ Voice Mail Ü ³³°°³ External Editor ³ °°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°³ External Terminal ³ °°³ ³ Tx/Rx Log Ü ³³°°³ Ring Shell Command ³ °°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°³ DOS Shell Command ³ °°³ ³ Utility Ü ³³°°³ Data Shell Command ³ °°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°ÔÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ; °°³ ³ Configure Ü ³³°°°° °°³ Figure A-1 ZFAX WORKING PATH Choices: Any valid path Default: None Zfax Working Path indicates the drive and directory where you installed ZFAX. If you installed ZFAX in the \ZFAX400 subdirectory on drive C, then this option reads: C:\ZFAX400 EXTERNAL EDITOR Choices: Any valid path Default: None If you want to edit text without having to exit ZFAX, specify next to External Editor the drive and directory where your text editor or word processor resides. For example, if you want to use the DOS EDIT text editor, which resides in the \DOS subdirectory on drive C type: C:\DOS\EDIT After you specify the path, you can access the text editor or word processor from ZFAX by pressing + or +. EXTERNAL TERMINAL PROGRAM Choices: Any valid path Default: None To use a data communications program with ZFAX, specify in the External Terminal field the drive and directory where your data communications program resides. For example, if you want to access Procomm Plus in the \PCPLUS subdirectory on drive C, type: C:\PCPLUS\PCPLUS RING SHELL COMMAND Choices: Any valid path Default: None When Ring Shell mode is activated, ZFAX automatically starts the program you specify in the Ring Shell Command field. When ZFAX transfers callers to the program you specify here, it does so without first handshaking with the caller. This allows the external program to determine the type of incoming ring and answer the call accordingly. Therefore, if you want a data or fax connection to occur, the program you specify here must be able to perform the necessary handshaking to make a data connection. High-speed data communication programs such as Procomm Plus, Telix, and QModem, are able to perform such handshaking. For example, assume that you want ZFAX to transfer callers to Procomm Plus, a data communications program capable of handshaking with a remote modem or a fax/modem. Also, assume that Procomm Plus resides in the \PCPLUS subdirectory on drive C, and that you want a script file called DATA.ASP to be started automatically. To have ZFAX perform this task, type the following line in the Ring Shell Command field: C:\PCPLUS\PCPLUS /fDATA.ASP Note: In the example above, /f is a Procomm command that identifies the script to be started (in this case, DATA.ASP). If you use a different data communications program, refer to its user manual for information on scripts. DOS SHELL COMMAND Choices: Any valid path Default: None DOS Shell Command is identical to Ring Shell Command, except that ZFAX starts the DOS Shell program specified here, and transfers callers to it, when DOS Shell mode is activated. DATA SHELL COMMAND Choices: Any valid path Default: None Data Shell Command is identical to Ring Shell Command, except that ZFAX automatically completes a data handshake with the calling modem or fax machine before transferring callers to the Data Shell program specified here.

OR Press to remove the list of choices without changing the current setting. PAPER SIZE Choices: A4 (210 mm wide x 297 mm high) B4 (250 mm wide x 353 mm high) A3 (297 mm wide x 420 mm high) Default: A4 (210 mm wide x 297 mm high) Paper size specifies the size of the paper you will be using for your fax documents. In most cases, use the default A4, which is the closest size to Letter size. Note: Fax communications are governed by standards set by ITU--T (formerly known as CCITT). This standard does not support Letter Size as an option. RESOLUTION Choices: Normal Res (3.85 pixels/mm) High Res (7.7 pixels/mm) Default: High Res (7.7 pixels/mm) Resolution specifies the type of resolution ZFAX uses when sending your faxes. If you want to achieve superior image quality, use High Res for high resolution; however, it will take more time to send your fax documents. Otherwise, use Normal Res. Note: Resolution only affects the faxes you send. It does not affect faxes you receive; when you receive a fax, the sender decides what resolution to use. CODING SCHEME Choices: 1--D, Modified Huffman Coding 2--D, Modified READ Coding Default: 1--D, Modified Huffman Coding Coding Scheme specifies the image data compression method to be used when faxing. In most cases, use the default 1D, Modified Huffman Coding. The 2-D , Modified READ Coding selection provides superior data compression data and takes less time to send faxes; however, the remote fax machine must also support this compression method. If you select 2-D, Modified READ Coding and the remote fax machine does not support it, ZFAX automatically switches to 1--D, Modified Huffman Coding. FAX TOP MESSAGE Choices: None Default: None Fax Top Message is the message you want to have appear at the top of your outgoing faxes. Note: The FCC requires this information on all faxes sent within the United States. LOCAL FAX ID Choices: None Default: None Local Fax ID is the fax number you want to have appear at the top of your outgoing faxes. This information is transferred to the remote fax machine's Transaction Log. Note: The FCC requires this information on all faxes sent within the United States. LEFT MARGIN Choices: 00 to 99 Default: 010 Left Margin is the left margin of the page on your outgoing faxes. This value is in millimeters (th of an inch). The default measures of an inch. Note: There are 25.4 millimeters in 1 inch. VERTICAL SPACE Choices: 000 to 999 Default: 04 Vertical Space is the space between lines of text on your outgoing faxes. This value is in millimeters (th of an inch). The default measures of an inch. Note: There are 25.4 millimeters in 1 inch. HORIZONTAL SPACE Choices: 00 to 99 Default: 02 Horizontal Space is the space between characters on your outgoing faxes. This value is in millimeters (th of an inch). The default measures of an inch. Note: There are 25.4 millimeters in 1 inch. LINES PER PAGE Choices: 000 to 999 Default: 060 Lines Per Page is the number of lines of text on your outgoing faxes. This value is in millimeters (th of an inch). Any lines of text that follow the value you enter here will be placed on a new page. In this way, Lines Per Page can instruct ZFAX to perform a form feed after the specified number of lines. ZFAX ignores this option if it is set to 0. Note: There are 25.4 millimeters in 1 inch. TEXT FILE FORMAT Choices: Ascii Code WordStar format Default: Ascii Code Text File Format specifies the text file format you want your outgoing text documents converted to prior to faxing them. By default, outgoing text documents are converted to ASCII documents. If you prefer, you can convert them to WordStar format before sending them. Note: Text File Format applies only to text files. It does not apply to image files such as TIFF, PCX, and Epson LQ-1000, which can be sent without conversion. PCX IMAGE RESIZE Choices: Enable Disable Default: Disable If your cover pages have PCX images, the resolution of these images shown on your computer monitor is approximately 80 pixels wide by 60 pixels high per square inch. However, a normal fax page will range from 200 by 200 pixels (for high resolution) to 200 by 100 pixels (for normal resolution). If you enable PCX Image Resize, ZFAX enlarges PCX images to fit a normal-size fax page. The default setting, Disable, maintains a pixel-to-pixel ratio on your monitor; for example, a full-screen PCX image will be shown at a size of 3.2 by 2.4 (or 4.8 in normal fax mode). AUTO PRINT Choices: Enable Disable Default: Disable If you enable Auto Print, ZFAX sends each fax you receive to the printer connected to the LPT port you specified on page . If you have a slow printer, it is recommended that you use a printer spooler or buffer to increase printing performance. Note: If ZFAX detects an incoming ring when printing a fax, it will stop printing to answer the call. Once the call ends, printing resumes.

Press to return to the main screen. 2. Press to save your selections. SETTING UP PRINT CAPTURE OPTIONS The print capture option lets you fax a document by printing it in another application. For example, if you want to fax a WordStar document, you can do so from within WordStar -- without having to exit to ZFAX. Before you print a document you want to fax, you must place ZFAX into TSR (memory-resident) mode. Then, when you print a document, it will be saved as a file named ZCAPnnn.PRN (nnn is a 3-digit number). ZFAX starts with 000 and increments each additional captured file by one number. The captured files reside in a subdirectory where ZFAX is located. For example, if ZFAX resides in the C:\ZFAX400 subdirectory, the captured file is stored in the C:\ZFAX400\PRNCAP subdirectory. For more information, refer to Chapter 5. To access the print capture setup: 1. Select the Configure vertical menu and the PrnCap submenu, then press ( ). OR Press +. The screen shown in Figure A-7 appears. ³ Data Ü ³³°ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿°°°³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°³ Print Capture Option Disable ³ °³ ³ Voice Mail Ü ³³°³ Send Capture Immediately Disable ³ °³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°³ Capture Printer Port LPT1 ³ °³ ³ Tx/Rx Log Ü ³³°³ Capture Timeout Count 002 ³ °³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°³ Capture HotKey Define Alt+Ctrl+Z ³ °³ ³ Utility Ü ³³°ÔÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ; °³ ³ ßßßßßßßßßßßßß ³³°°° °³ Figure A-7 PRINT CAPTURE OPTION Choices: Enable Disable Default: Disable Print Capture Option specifies whether the print capture option is enabled or disabled. This selection allows you to fax any document that can be printed using an Epson LQ1000 printer. If you enable this option, files that are sent to the Capture Printer Port are automatically converted by ZFAX into fax format prior to being transmitted to a remote fax machine. Once the fax-formatted file is sent, it is automatically removed from your computer's hard disk. SEND CAPTURE IMMEDIATELY Choices: Enable Disable Default: Disable If you enabled Print Capture Option, use Send Capture Immediately to indicate whether captured fax files are immediately transmitted. The default selection, Disable, tells ZFAX not to send a captured fax file until you tell it to be sent by using the Send Fax or Schedule Fax functions (described in Chapter 5). If you select Enable, the Send Fax menu appears as soon as you print-capture a file. You can then specify the fax number where the fax is to be sent and send the file. CAPTURE PRINTER PORT Choices: LPT1 LPT2 LPT3 Default: LPT1 If you enabled Print Capture Option, use Capture Printer Port to specify the printer port where files are captured. ZFAX can capture files from ports LPT1 through LPT3. It is recommended that you select a port that does not have a printer attached. For example, if you have a printer connected to LPT1 and set the Capture Printer Port to LPT2, you can send documents you want printed to LPT1 and documents you want faxed to LPT2. CAPTURE TIMEOUT COUNT Choices: 000 to 999 Default: 002 If you enabled Print Capture Option, use Capture Timeout Count to specify the number of seconds that ZFAX waits before it assumes that you have finished print-capturing. If you print-capture files that require significant computing power and time, increase the value for this option. For example, if you print capture CAD/CAM files, the computer will need to perform alternate cycles of computing and printing. In this case, you will need to set a longer Capture Timeout Count; otherwise, ZFAX may assume that the print capture is done when it is actually just between cycles. CAPTURE HOTKEY DEFINE Choices: See description Default: ++ If you did not enable Print Capture Option, you can use Capture HotKey Define to specify the key combination used to activate the print capture feature. The default is ++. If this combination conflicts with one used for ZFAX or another application, enter a different capture HotKey. The print capture HotKey has to be a combination of at least two keys. One of these keys has to be the , , or key; the other key(s) can be any one you choose from your keyboard.

This appendix also describes how to use Extended Distinctive Ring with ZFAX. REVIEW Distinctive Ring is a service that is available from some telephone companies. Distinctive Ring allows as many as three different telephone numbers to be connected to a single telephone line. Each telephone line has its own unique (or distinctive ) ring, so that it can be differentiated from the other lines. As a result, Distinctive Ring provides the same benefits as installing separate, multiple telephone lines, while eliminating the cost. The benefits of Distinctive Ring are obvious. For example, a business person who works from home can use Distinctive Ring to combine his residence telephone number and his business telephone number on a single telephone line, and use separate rings to differentiate between residence and business calls. Alternatively, a business person can use Distinctive Ring to receive voice calls with one type of ring, data calls with a second type of ring, and fax calls with a third type of ring. This cost-effective solution eliminates the need for separate voice, fax, and data telephone lines. Each separate ring in a Distinctive Ring scenario is referred to as a ring type. Each ring type consists of a series of ringing and no-ringing sequences of various durations. Table C-1 describes the differences among the three types of rings.

Distinctive Ring Types Your ZyXEL modem and ZFAX are equipped with Distinctive Ring features. If you subscribe to your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service, you can use the Distinctive Ring option in the System Setup screen to enable Distinctive Ring (see Figure C-1). You can then use the Ring 1 Answer Type, Ring 2 Answer Type, and Ring 3 Answer Type to tell ZFAX what actions to take when it detects these types of rings. According to the configuration settings shown in Figure C-1, for example, ZFAX will act as a dedicated fax machine if a Type 1 ring is received, transfer control to a data communications program if a Type 2 ring is received, or act as an answering machine if a Type 3 ring is received. Note: If you do not subscribe to Distinctive Ring, or have not enabled ZFAX's Distinctive Ring, all calls are handled as Normal Ring Answer calls.

For example: If you let a fax/data software application answer incoming calls, you will miss voice calls. If an answering machine answers calls, you will miss fax and data calls. If a person answers a call, the call may be mishandled as the person tries to route it to the appropriate application. None of these methods is acceptable, since each one results in lost calls. To overcome this dilemma, your ZyXEL modem provides an Extended Distinctive Ring (EDR) feature. Designed for single telephone-line residence use, EDR ensures that fax and data calls are handled appropriately, without interfering with voice calls. EDR's advanced technology allows your modem to detect both fax calling (CNG) tones and DTMF tones without physically answering a call: If a CNG tone is detected, your modem reports the RING or RING n to the software application, which can then request the modem to answer the call. If DTMF tones are detected, your modem reports the RING or RING n to the software application. Note: RING refers to a normal ring. RING n refer to the type of Distinctive Ring (Type 1, Type 2, or Type 3). As a result, voice, fax, and data calls will be handled appropriately when your modem is used with answering machines and voice telephones. The following example illustrates this advantage. Assume that you want to use an answering machine with your ZyXEL modem, and want to make sure you do not miss any voice or fax calls. You can configure your modem so it does not report regular rings to the communications software; this will prevent the software from instructing the modem to answer the telephone when the telephone rings. Then, when you receive a call: 1. The answering machine answers the telephone and plays a prerecorded voice message. 2. Once your modem detects that there are no more ring signals, it listens for a CNG tone or DTMF tones on the telephone line. 3. If an unattended fax machine is calling, it transmits its CNG tone for a certain period of time. When your modem detects the CNG tone, it immediately reports the RING to the software application. The software application can then issue the appropriate commands to have the modem answer the call and receive faxes. 4. Assume, however, that the remote caller is using a fax phone, which does not provide a CNG tone. In this case, the caller waits for a fax answer tone before pressing the START button on his fax machine to send a fax. In this case, the caller can press a designated key on his Touch-Tone telephone. The DTMF tone will activate the modem and instruct it to answer the fax call. This example demonstrates just one of the applications in which EDR can be used. There are many different ways to set your modem for both basic use and various extended applications. SETTING UP EDR EDR is specifically designed to be used in residences, where multiple telephones are installed. Once EDR is enabled, your modem enters EDR mode when the incoming rings stop. Your modem can then listen to the telephone line, and detect a CNG tone or the pressing of *, 0, or # on a Touch-Tone telephone. Your modem reports the CNG tone or DTMF tones as different types of rings. S-REGISTERS You can use modem registers S51 and S40 to set up your modem's EDR feature for your needs: S51 bit 2-0, 000 Disable EDR 001 Enable EDR, single RING or RING n will be reported 010 Enable EDR, RING or RING n will be reported twice 011 Enable EDR, RING or RING n will be reported 3 times 100 Enable EDR, RING or RING n will be reported 4 times : : : 111 Enable EDR, RING or RING n will be reported 7 times S51 bit 5-3, 000 Disable CNG tone detection 001 Enable CNG tone detection report as RING 010 Enable CNG tone detection, report as RING 1 011 Enable CNG tone detection, report as RING 2 111 Enable CNG tone detection, report as RING 6 S40 bit 5-3, 000 Disable DTMF tone detection for EDR 001 Enable * detection and report as RING 010 Enable 0 detection and report as RING 1 or RING if only one ring type is enabled 100 Enable # detection and report as RING 2 or RING if only one ring type is enabled Note: You can enable more than one ring type by turning on more than one of the 3 bits. Note: If you need assistance setting modem register values, refer to your ZyXEL Modem User's Manual. Register S51 bit 2-0 is used to control the number of rings that the modem will report to the application software once the modem detects a CNG or DTMF tone. Make sure you set your software program to answer calls on the same number of rings specified by Register S51 bit 2-1 or fewer rings. For example, if Register S51 bit 2-0 tells your modem to answer a call after two rings are detected, set up your software program to also answer calls after two rings are detected. Figure C-2 shows the timing relationship between caller ID (if enabled), EDR, and the Ring Indicator signal on EIA pin 22. 1'st 2'nd 3'rd on off on off on ****--------****---------****------------------------------------ 3s 3s 3s 3s s7 timeout +------+----+-------+----+-------+----+---------------------+---- CID/EDR RD EDR RD EDR RD EDR RD Figure C-2 CID: Caller ID task RD : Ring Detector task SA : EDR task When EDR is enabled and your modem detects a CNG or DTMF tone from a caller, the modem's auto-baud function is disabled; therefore, issuing a command at a different baud may prevent the modem from responding to any AT commands. In addition, if an AT command is sent and accepted before Register S7 times-out, as shown in Figure C-1, your modem disables the EDR function automatically. By default, Register S7 is set to 60 seconds. APPLICATION EXAMPLE In the previous example, an answering machine was installed with a ZyXEL modem. In this example, we will use ZFAX as our fax receive application, and have ZFAX answer only fax calls. To achieve this task: 1. Set ZFAX's Ring Counter option to answer on 1 ring. 2. Set Register S51.0=1 to: enable EDR and report RING once. 3. Set Register S51.3=1 to: enable the detection of a fax CNG tone and report it as RING. 4. Set Register S40.3=1 to: Enable regular Distinctive Ring type 1. The modem will not report this ring type as a normal ring, so ZFAX will not answer the call unless EDR is reported. Enable the detection of the DTMF tone * and report it as RING in case the remote fax machine does not generate a CNG tone. In your answering machine message you can ask fax callers to press * on their Touch-Tone telephones when they want to send a fax. 5. Save the settings in a profile and reset the modem from this profile (for example, type AT&W0Z0 and press ). APPENDIX D GLOSSARY ADPCM An abbreviation for Adaptive Delta Pulse Code Modulcation, a technique that ZFAX uses to convert voice recordings.

CHAPTER 6 VOICE MAIL AND VOICE UTILITIES The ZFAX Voice Mail System lets you receive voice, fax, and data messages in up to 1,000 different mailboxes. It also provides a remote access utility that lets you retrieve voice messages and fax documents from these mailboxes when you are away from your home or office. ZFAX also provides voice utilities that let you record, play, and convert voice message files. This chapter describes ZFAX's Voice Mail System and voice utilities. Topics include: Overview Voice Mail System setup Adding and editing mailboxes Retrieving messages Working with messages Setting up the faxback service Setting up voice announcements Accessing voice utilities OVERVIEW When you enable ZFAX's Voice Mail System, ZFAX answers phone calls and plays the Main Greeting Message. This is the greeting for MailBox 0, which is the MailBox that answers all calls. As ZFAX plays the Main Greeting Message, it listens for fax CNG ("calling") tones or DTMF tones from a Touch-Tone telephone. If a fax CNG tone is detected, ZFAX switches to fax receive mode and prepares to receive the fax from the calling fax machine. If a DTMF tone is received, ZFAX performs the appropriate action you have defined in setup (described in Table A-3 on page in Appendix A). If neither a CNG tone nor a DTMF tone is detected, ZFAX allows callers to leave a message. If no message is detected, ZFAX tries to handshake with the caller in an attempt to make a fax or data connection if you set Connect Data Action to Internal or Data Shell (refer to Appendix A). VOICE MAIL SYSTEM SETUP Before you use ZFAX's Voice Mail System, select the appropriate setup options in Appendix A. Connect Data Action Normal Ring Answer Distinctive Ring Ring 1 Answer Type Ring 2 Answer Type Ring 3 Answer Type Also, verify your Voice Mail System setup selections. ADDING AND EDITING MAILBOXES The following sections describe how to add and edit voice/fax/data mailboxes. ADDING MAILBOXES When you receive ZFAX, only one MailBox is set up. This is MailBox 0, the MailBox that answers all calls. You can use the following procedure to add up to 1,000 mailboxes. When you add mailboxes, you specify their extension and password. Passwords let you and other callers access the system remotely, such as when you want to retrieve voice messages or faxes that were received while you were away from your office or home. The password for MailBox 0 is defined as the System Password (refer to Appendix A). Passwords for all other mailboxes are defined when you add mailboxes, as described in this section. 1.
