Getting Started
This guide shows you how to set up your Multi-Tech Model
FF200 FaxFinder 2-port fax modem system. The FaxFinder is a
fax server for networked environments. With it, you can receive
faxes as emails and send faxes from any application that can
print.
The FaxFinder operates in two modes: PBX Routing Mode and
POTS Mode1.
PBX Routing Mode. When connected to station ports (2) on a
PBX2, the FF200 functions as a network fax server with full two-
way fax service. Multiple PBX extension numbers are dedicated
to incoming fax traffic which is routed to the FF200. (Two station
ports are needed. Faxes transmitted to any of the PBX’s fax-
dedicated extension numbers all go to the station ports serving
the FF200.) The FF200 converts the incoming faxes into
graphic files that are sent as email attachments to fax recipients
on the ethernet network.
1. The mode is set in the Modem Configuration screen of the
FaxFinder Server software.
2. For FF200 compatibility in PBX Routing Mode, the PBX must
support ‘convergent routing,’ that is, the routing of multiple
extension numbers to a single station port. PBXs lacking this
functionality can still be used with the FaxFinder in POTS
Mode.

Each fax-dedicated PBX extension number is associated with a
particular email address. Fax clients on the network can send
faxes directly from their PCs using any application program that
can print. In response to the ‘Print’ command, the FF200 turns
the ‘print file’ image into a fax. It transmits the fax to the public
phone system (PSTN) or to another PBX extension.
POTS Mode. When connected directly to a regular POTS line
(or to a PBX without convergent routing capability), the FF200
functions as an outgoing fax server with incoming fax service to
an attendant. Outgoing faxes work the same as in PBX Routing
Mode. That is, to send a fax into the public phone system
(PSTN), the client software executes a print-to-file command
from an application program. However, all incoming faxes go to
a single email recipient, the attendant, who then sends them on,
as needed, to the intended recipient.
In both configurations, the FF200, having two fax ports, can
send and receive faxes simultaneously.

Prerequisite: Determining PBX Compatibility &
Configuration
To operate the FF200 FaxFinder system in conjunction with a
PBX and in “PBX Routing Mode,” that PBX must be able to do
convergent routing. That is, it must route incoming calls made to
many PBX extension numbers to a single PBX station port. For
example, fax calls to twenty PBX extension numbers (555-3101
through 555-3120) might be directed to a FaxFinder unit at 555-
3121.This multiple-extension-to-single-port capacity allows
multiple PBX users to have their own unique directory numbers
for receiving faxes.
If you are using the FF200 in conjunction with a PBX and in
“PBX Routing Mode,” be sure that the PBX has this multiple-
extension-to-single-port capacity and that this capacity is
activated.

How PBX Routing Works
The PBX routes several incoming extension numbers to one
station port. When an incoming call is received by the PBX for
one of these extension numbers, the PBX will ring the station
port to which the FF200 is installed. The FF200 will detect the
ring and go off hook . When the PBX detects that the line has
been seized, it will send DTMF digits to the FF200 identifying the
extension number for which the fax was intended.
The FF200 will receive the fax and then check these DTMF
digits against the numbers in the FaxFinder Phone Book.
The FaxFinder Phone Book is an “inbound phonebook,” that is,
it’s a list of individuals who may receive faxes on the FaxFinder
system.
If a match is exists, the FaxFinder will direct the fax to the
matched recipient. The FaxFinder exports the fax as a TIFF file
and sends it to the matched recipient as an email attachment.
If no match exists, the FaxFinder will direct the fax to the
“Unassigned Number” email address in the FaxFinder Phone
Book.
If you are operating the FF200 in conjunction with an Avaya
Magix PBX or with an Avaya Definity PBX, then select “PBX
Mode Code” as the routing option. “PBX Mode Code” is a
special, proprietary type of PBX routing that works only with
those PBXs.
