Page 13

INSTALLING THE UNIT

I. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The FAX-200 can be plugged into any standard power (110 VAC) outlet. Make sure that the outlet is grounded and that it is not on the same line as appliances or office machines which tend to draw a lot of power in a very short period of time, such as refrigerators, copiers, etc. The

FAX-200 power requirements are listed in the SPECIFICATIONS.

After you plug in the power cord into the outlet, the LCD will display:

PRESS STOP KEY

Press STOP. If you have not inserted the paper roll into the unit, "ADD PAPER" message

appears. If you have already inserted the paper roll, the unit is ready for use. The LCD will display the date and time as follows:

01/01/89 00:00

This LCD reading is referred to as the "standby mode" and it indicates that the unit is ready to perform its functions. Later, we will show you how to set the date and time.

NOTE: THE FAX-200 DOES NOT HA VE A POWER ON/OFF SWITCH.

II. SINGLE-LINE TELEPHONE CONNECTIONS

The FAX-200 must always be connected to the power outlet prior to making the telephone line connection. Similarly, when disconnecting the unit, the telephone line connection should be removed before unplugging the unit. This procedure is necessary because the unit relies on the power outlet's ground for your protection from any possibly hazardous electrical conditions that may arise on the telephone network.

The simplest way to connect the Brother FAX-200 unit to the public switched telephone network (phone company lines) is to use a single telephone line. The connection is particularly simple if you have a modular wall jack. The most common modular jack is referred to as the

USOC RJ11C jack, if you have such a jack, follow the instructions below. If your wall jack is

not modular, it is very easy to convert the wall plug to a modular form. Conversion is very simple and conversion kits are available from your local phone company, an electronics / computer store (e.g., Radio Shack) or the AT&T phone stores.

To connect your FAX-200 to the telephone line, follow these steps:

• Connect one end of the curled handset cord to the handset and the second end to the

RJ7 jack on the side of the handset cradle.

• Take the telephone cord which is also included in the carton and connect one of its plugs

to the LINE jack in the back of the FAX-200 unit and the second plug to your modular wall jack (USOC RJ11C). Now, the FAX-200 is connected to the telephone network.

Please see the illustration on the next page for the telephone connections.

MODULAR PLUG TO WALL OUTLET

Page 14

If you have MODULAR PHONE JACKS (USOC RJ11C), simply plug the phone cord into the wall jack.

If you have the older 4-PRONG JACK, you must use a modular 4-prong adapter USOC RJA1X. Plug the adapter into the wall jack and then plug the phone card into the adapter. Then, follow the instructions above.

III. MULTI-LINE TELEPHONE CONNECTIONS

Most offices have key systems or PBXs. While in many cases it is relatively easy to connect the

FAX-200 to a key system or a PBX, we suggest that you contact the organization which

installed your company's telephone system and ask them to connect the FAX-200 to the system. If the FAX-200 is connected to a key system, ask your installer to connect the FAX-

200 to the last line on the system. This way, the FAX-200 will not be activated by every phone

call coming into your office. The preferred solution is to ask the phone company to assign a separate line to the facsimile unit. In this case, you can leave the unit on 24 hours a day and derive full benefits from its automatic, unattended operations capabilities.

IV. INSERTING THE RECORDING PAPER ROLL INTO THE UNIT

To insert the paper roll, follow the directions given below. Before reading the instructions for inserting the recording paper into the unit, please consider these important notes:

NOTE 1 : The recording paper is heat-sensitive. Avoid exposure to high temperature, high humidity

or direct sunlight. Keep the received documents (or copied documents) away from high

temperature, direct sunlight, high humidity, alcohol, blueprints. Otherwise the documents

may become discolored.

NOTE 2: The use of Brother Recording Paper is specifically recommended for this unit. The use of

paper not authorized by Brother may adversely affect the unit's performance and may void Brother's product warranty.

Brother Recording Paper has a red stripe indicator. Its appearance on your received or copied documents is a warning that the paper roll will be running out shortly. Replace the paper roll when you see the red stripe. Furthermore, Brother Recording Paper has a black stripe at the end of the roll. If you have not changed the paper at the appearance of the red stripe, the unit will automatically stop when the black stripe appears. This feature works only with Brother Recording Paper on Brother facsimile units. Please note that Brother Recording Paper rolls are overwound (i.e., contain extra paper) so that you are not wasting paper when you remove the roll when the indicator appears.

Page 15

To insert the paper roll, follow these directions:

1. To open the paper cover, press the button which is located at the right edge of the top of the machine.

2. Hold the recording paper roll so that the free end of the paper points towards you

from the top of the roll. Be sure not to

set the recording paper upside-down. If this happens, you will not get any images on reception or copying.

4. Push the cover unit until you hear a click.

5. Press STOP. The automatic cutter will cut

off excess paper and the unit will go into the standby mode (ready). The LCD will change to:

6. If you forgot to press STOP, the unit will

go into the standby mode as soon as

someone calls it.

V. INSERTING THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENT TRAY

The original document tray consists of document tray, Call Directory and Quick-Reference Card,

and wire paper holder. The Call Directory Card and the Quick-Reference Card can be inserted into the back side of the tray in the following step.

1. Turn the tray face down. Also hold the Call Directory Card and the Quick-Reference Card face down. Insert either left or right leg (positioned at the bottom of the Cards) into the slit of the tray and then insert another leg. See Illustration 1 below.

2. Slide the Cards down along the slits. Put the upper part of the Cards below the two protrusions coming out face to face at the top middle of the tray. (The tray must still face down.) Slide the Cards down to the bottom of the slits.

3. Now turn the tray face up.

A wire paper holder also comes with this tray and can be easily installed into the tray. Locate small holes at the top of the tray. Insert the legs of the paper holder into the holes. Make sure the other end of the wire protrude upwards as shown below. Pre-installation is complete.

Insert the above tray into the slots at the top of the unit as shown in the Illustration 2 below.

II. HOW TO TRANSMIT DOCUMENTS A. Preparing to transmit documents

You can start using the unit once it is plugged in, connected to the telephone network, has paper inside of it and the LCD is in the standby mode. If you are satisfied with the factory settings for various parameters (and, most of the users hardly ever have to change these settings), you can start using the machine immediately.

Basically, the only difference between transmission and copying is that for transmission you must dial a telephone number before pressing the START/COPY button!

The only programing most users do is to set the date and time and to program their fax number and name that they appear on the received document. All other programming can be postponed for when you need some specific capability.

Also, bear in mind that the FAX-200 has an LCD which will display helpful prompts. Furthermore, you can abort sending a document by pressing the STOP button.

Page 21

B. Transmitting documents

Now, you are ready to transmit your document. The exact procedure for transmission depends

on your selection of one of these methods:

• Manual dialing

• One-touch dialing

• Speed dialing

It Is a manual transmission if you first pick up the handset or press the HOOK button and then dial (either manual dialing, one-touch dialing or speed dialing). If you use one-touch dial or speed dial and then press the START button, this is an automatic transmission.

1. One-touch dialing

m. HOW TO RECEIVE DOCUMENTS

There are two methods for receiving documents with your FAX-200 unit:

• Automatic Reception

• Manual Reception

NOTE: If a telephone connected in parallel with the unit is used during receipt of a document,

the received document may include distorted characters.

A. Automatic Reception

The factory setting is for AUTO. ANSWER to be ON and for the unit to pick up the reception on the first ring. Therefore, if you are satisfied with this setting, there is absolutely nothing you

have to do to receive documents automatically, except to make sure that the unit is plugged in

and that there is enough recording paper in the unit.

If for some reason you prefer for the unit to pick up automatically on the fourth (4) ring, you

can reprogram the AUTO. ANSWER function using the simple procedure described in the

PROGRAMMING THE UNIT section of the Manual.

Usually, the reason for this is as follows. The fax unit is on your desk and you can pick up the phone before the unit has rung four times. If you hear a voice, you simply answer the caller. If you hear fax tones, you can receive the document manually (see below).. Of course, you can leave the handset on-hook and press HOOK. Then you will hear the rings and the voice or fax tones over the monitor. If you hear fax tones, press START.

B. Manual Reception

To switch the unit to the MANUAL RECEPTION mode, you have to turn off the AUTO ANSWER mode. This is done by following the simple instructions on page 27.

When you hear a ring, pick up the handset and, if you hear a voice, start the conversation. If you hear fax tones, press START.

NOTE: Do not leave the document in the feeder when the unit is set to Manual reception

mode. The unit can not receive document.

Page 26

IMPORTANT TRANSMISSION INFORMATION:

When inserting documents into the feeder, hoid the documents by both hands. Take your hands off the documents immediately once the first page of the documents has started to be fed into the feeder.

Do not transmit or copy very thick pages (over 0.12mm thick). If you have to transmit such pages, use a photocopier (not the FAX-200) to make a copy and transmit the copy instead.

Do not transmit or copy wrinkled, wet, or coated documents. Make a photocopy and transmit it instead.

Do not transmit or copy documents printed on thick photographic paper, metal or textiles. Make a photocopy and transmit it instead.

Do not transmit or copy documents that are too thin (tissue paper, tracing paper, etc.) The

thinnest paper suitable for transmission is 0.055mm. Make a photocopy and transmit it instead.

Remove all staples and paper clips from the documents to be transmitted. Do not transmit or copy documents held together by scotch tape. Photocopy them and

transmit the photocopy.

Do not load the feeder with more than five (5) documents at a time.

Transmit carrier sheets and glossy papers one at a time.

Do not transmit documents of different sizes and/or thickness together.

When transmitting more than one document at a time using the ADF, make sure that they are

between 0.06 and 0.09mm thick. Otherwise, transmit one by one, or use a photocopier to make

copies and transmit them instead.

Scannable area that can be guaranteed is the shaded area in the following picture.

USING THE UNIT AS A TELEPHONE

To use this unit as a telephone, you have the following choices:

• Manual dialing

• One-touch dialing

• Speed-dialing

All of these can be made in the ON-HOOK or OFF-HOOK mode. To use the three ways of dialing, follow the same instructions as for facsimile dialing, except you do not set a document into the feeder.

And the REDIAL function is also available.

PROGRAMMING THE UNIT

THE FAX-200 has many capabilities. These can be programmed by the user. The method for programming these will be described when we address a specific capability. Here, we will address a number of fundamental operations.

Important: Perform all programming operations without a document in the feeder.

I. SETTING THE DATE AND TIME

The date and time display is referred to as the standby mode of the LCD. When in this mode, the LCD initially displays:

MM/DDA'Y HH:MM

The initial factory setting date and time is "01/0.1/89 00:00". This will change to the actual date and time after you complete the steps below.

• Press FUNCTION. The unit will go into the FUNCTION mode and the LCD will display:

FUNCTION(0-9)?

Press "6". The LCD will revert to the standby setting, except that there will be a cursor under the first "M". Input the correct 2-digit number for the month (from 01 to 12).

As the month is completed, the cursor will move to the first "D" where you input the

correct number for the day (01 to 31). Continue this process until the entire date and

time is registered. Note that this unit uses the 24 hour clock, i.e., 9:15PM is shown as

21:15. Press SET twice. From this point on, the standby mode of the LCD will display the

correct date and time.

II. REGISTERING YOUR FAX TELEPHONE NUMBER ID

Your fax unit's telephone ID number is used as an RTl/TTI number to identify your messages at the remode location. When programmed, the number may be printed on documents received at the distant end. It may also appear on their LCD display or transaction journals if these are features of their equipment. You can register your telephone number up to 22 digits at a time, all 22 digits can be seen by scrolling the LCD by using the cursor keys.

• Start by putting the unit into the FUNCTION mode (see above). Press "1" and the unit will go into the REGISTRATION & SETTING mode and the LCD will display:

Press 1. If there is no other number registered, the LCD will display:

FAX:_

Input the appropriate numbers by using the ten key pad. As you press a number, the

digit appears at the current position of the cursor.

If you wish to input a space, press the right cursor key and the cursor moves to the next position.

When the input for fax telephone number ID has been completed, pressing NEXT will

bring you to the COMPANY NAME/DESTINATION NAME registration. And if you do not touch any key for around 10 seconds after you have entered your fax telephone number ID, it will be automatically registered and the LCD will revert to the standby mode.

the cursor to "3". Enter "1".

FAX: 201 1

Anything to the right of the cursor will be erased.

-AUTO ANS

NOTE: You may use the PAUSE button to insert a pause, yet this inputs a "P". Then your

RTI/TTI number will appear like 201 PillP5881 both on the display and in print. If you

do not like this, use the cursor right key to insert a space as mentioned above.

Page 29

III. REGISTERING YOUR COMPANY NAME/DESTINATION NAME

You can register up to 22 (twenty two) alphanumeric characters for your company name/ ID.

• Press NEXT after you've registered the RTI/TTi. The LCD displays:

NAME;

Input is accomplished by using the character chart on the next page. Please note that you must use the 2-digit code for each alpha or numerical character in your station ID.

When the input for the STATION ID has been completed, pressing NEXT will return you to the RTI/TTI setting. And if you do not touch any key for around 10 seconds after you

have entered your STATION ID, it will be automatically registered and the LCD will revert to the standby mode.

■ PASSWORD

Clearing a Registered Company Name / Destination Name

• To clear a company name/destination name, bring the name up on the LCD again: NAME:£ROTHER

Enter the 2-digit code for a blank (0,0) using the ten key pad. This erases the registration entirely. The LCD shows:

NAME:

— AUTO ANS ^ PASSWORD

■AUTO ANS

■ PASSWORD

Correcting Mis-registration

• To change a character already registered, move the cursor under the character to be

changed, then oven/vrite the character with the correct 2-digit code. For example, if you input BRATHER instead of BROTHER, bring the cursor to "A" and enter the 2-digit code for "O". The correction will be shown on the display.

• To correct a missing character, move the cursor to the place where the character is

missing and put in the 2-digit code for the missing character. Then reinput all characters succeeding the missing character. For example, if you entered BRTHER and

forgot the "O", move cursor under the "T" then input 2-digit code for "0","T", "H", "E"

and "R".

I. TEMPORARY REGISTRATION SETTINGS

While you may be satisfied with the programmed settings of the unit for virtually all of your operations, there may be instances when you wish to change one or more of the settings. For example, normally, you use STANDARD RESOLUTION. However, you have to transmit a photograph. Since this is likely to be a rather infrequent type of transmission, you might wish

to change it for the duration of this one transmission only. This is accomplished via temporary

settings. After the completion of the transmission, the unit automatically reverts to your

permanent settings (either the ones you've programmed or the factory settings if you left those).

REMINDER: You can set the RESOLUTION and CONTRAST In two ways - Temporary or

A. Making Temporary Settings

1. Set a document into the feeder. If you do not do so, you will NOT be able to

access the menu for making temporary settings. Instead, you will get the normal FUNCTION MODE menu which you've used while getting ready to program the unit. With the document in the feeder, the LCD will display:

Permanent (See p.24 ~ 25). The difference when setting is whether you

put a document in the feeder (temporary) or not (permanent). The Temporary Registration Settings are valid only for as long as the document for which they were set is being transmitted. Once the transmission has been completed, the settings wiii revert to the User Switch Settings or to the factory settings (if you did not program your own).

LCD reads:

PRINTER ERROR

SCANNER ERROR

When any of these errors occur, the buzzer beeps for 6 seconds continuously.

Error / Malfunction

No recording paper

2. Communication error

When a communication error occurs, the buzzer beeps intermittently for 6 seconds and the LCD displays a message, "COMM ERROR". A report is printed by the unit:

**************************

COMMUNICATION ERROR REPORT MM/DDA'Y

DESTINATION: MODE: ERROR PAGE RESULT

BROTHER INDUSTRIES G3 STANDARD

*************************

******************************************

The number in ERROR PAGE shows that the page at that number and the pages after it were

not transmitted properly. For example, if you transmitted 3 pages and the number in ERROR PAGE is 02, only the first page was transmitted properly, and the second and third pages were not.

If the unit detects the black mark on the paper indicating the approaching end of the roll, the LCD will display: ADD PAPER. However, even if a new roll is inserted, the report or list will not

be outputted any more. When red stripe appears on the paper replace the old paper roll with new one.
