5.3
Faxing
(optional)
If
you
would
like
to
use
your
Fonality
Phone
System
for
faxing,
there
are
a
couple
of
important
points
you
need
to
know:
1. In
order
to
fax,
you
must
have
an
Analog
card
a. T1/PRI
card
b. Analog
card
with
GREEN
lighted
ports
(when
powered)
2. You
must
specify
in
the
Options
cards
page
which
analog
ports
are
'fax'
ports.
3. Each
fax
machine
must
be
configured
on
your
Fonality
Phone
System
as
an
extension.
4. You
must
configure
'go
to
submenu/extension
by
number
dialed'
to
point
your
fax
number
at
your
fax
port
via
the
appropriate
extension.
Fax
ports
will
light
up
green
on
the
back
of
your
Fonality
Phone
System.
Do
not
connect
any
other
type
of
analog
device
to
green
ports.
Reliable
faxing
requires
a
very
efficient
timing
source.
Your
Fonality
Phone
System
gets
internal
timing
from
the
T1/PRI
card.
The
analog
card
installed
for
faxing
has
been
specially
configured
to
connect
to
the
T1/PRI
card
via
a
jumper
cable.
For
this
reason,
the
T1/PRI
card
must
be
installed
in
the
first
PCI/PCIe
slot
and
the
analog
card
installed
in
the
second
PCI/PCIe
slot.
Fax
ports
are
unique
and
cannot
be
configured
as
any
other
type
of
port
(e.g.
analog
phone
or
overhead
paging
system).
Please
refer
to
Figure
5.2.1.1
when
connecting
your
fax
machines
and
analog
phones
to
a
fax‐ready
Fonality
Phone
System.
