Voice mail and fax boxes
Select the voice mail or fax box you want to display/configure.
*Further help under Fax box
Fax ID|Sender name
Enter a sender name that is to be inserted into the top line of a fax along with the fax ID.
*Further help under Fax box
Fax ID|Telephone Number
Enter the complete phone number of the own external connection as fax ID. Number in the format +[country code][city code][external phone number] (e.g. +495306920094).
The fax ID is inserted into the top line of a fax during the fax transfer and, thus, permits an exact identification of the sender.
*Note: Recipients of a fax frequently send their responses to the number entered in the header of the fax. Therefore, the Telephone Number should be one of your own extensions/phone numbers with fax acceptance.

Fax transmission|ECM (Error Correction Mode)
Transmission errors (e.g. because of faulty lines) will be corrected provided that ECM operation (Error Correction Mode) has also been configured for the opposite end.
*Note: If transmission errors occur very often (e.g. overseas lines of VoIP connections with frequent packet losses), the transmission cannot be carried out since the fax machines involved will cancel the transmission due to an excessive number of transmission repetitions. In such cases, it may be sensible to disable EMC error correction. Without ECM error correction, the transmission errors occurred will be displayed as erroneous dots or lines.

Fax transmission|A maximum of 9600 baud
The transmission rate will be limited to 9600 baud and adapted in such a way that a faultless transmission quality is reached.
*Note: The PBX supports a maximum transmission rate of 14400 baud. This transmission rate may be too high for specific lines (e.g. overseas lines or VoIP connections) and may lead to transmission interferences. In such cases, a limitation of 9600 baud makes sense.
