2. Setting Up and Using OpenLCR
Your fax machine features OpenLCR technology, which helps you save money on long distance and international phone calls (both fax and voice) by automatically routing each call for the best available rate.
OpenLCR service is free of charge. The only cost to you is that of a periodic call
(usually once every three months) to OpenLCR to receive the latest rate data. (Once you ha v e reg istere d with OpenL CR, y our fax machine automa tical ly mak e s this call.)
All calls routed by OpenLCR are consolidated on your monthly phone bill.
To take advantage of this f eature , you will need to register with OpenLCR and down load the ra te data to your fa x machi ne.
You can register with OpenLCR by fax, phone, or through OpenLCR’s Web site (www.OpenLCR.com).
OpenLCR
2. Setting Up
Before regist ering, be sure to read the inf ormation on the F ax Transmission Test
and OpenLCR Line Activation Form and Terms of Service sheet in clude d wit h your fax machine. If you have any questions, call OpenLCR at 970-206-1207.
OpenLCR uses Caller ID f or identific ation purposes when yo ur fa x calls OpenLCR
to receive rate information. Even if you have requested your telephone company to withhold your Caller ID information when you place calls, your fax will still automatically transmit this information only when it calls OpenLCR.
It is possible to register for and use OpenLCR if you do not subscribe to a Caller
ID service; however, in some instances where rate data must be changed on an emergency basis, your fax may not be able to respond automatically to OpenLCR’s call to notify your fax that it must receive new rate data. If this occurs, old, incorrect data will continue to be used.
Please note that the agreement you enter into by registering is between you and
OpenLCR; it is not between you and any carriers. OpenLCR service is only available in the U.S.A.

OpenLCR will also program the

Registering through OpenLCR’s Web site
You can also register at OpenLCR’s Web site , www.OpenLCR.com. After registering you will need to receive the rate data manually (service is not activated until your fax receives the rate data). See Downloading (receiving) the rate data manually on the following page.
If you move, you must re-register!
The rate data that you receiv e is based on the address you provide when registering with OpenLCR. If you move, the rate data will not be correct for your new location. In this case, repeat the registration procedure to give OpenLCR your new address.
Note: If you wish to connect more than one OpenLCR-ena bled de vice to the same line, please call OpenLCR at 970-206-1207. If you replace an old OpenLCR-enabled device with a new one, you must re-register with OpenLCR to use the new device.
Note: OpenLCR cannot be used if your fax machine is connected to a Private Branch Exchange (PBX).
Downloading (receiving) the rate data manually
Your fax machine will automatically call OpenLCR and do wnload upd ated rate data about once every three months. Normally you will not need to download the rate data manually.
If you register through OpenLCR’s
Web site, you must manually download the rate data to activate service.
If the fax machine is unplugged or
some other interruption occurs in the power, you will need to manually dow nlo ad the r ate data.

OpenLCR as shown below. The test is free of charge and does not place you under any obligation to register with OpenLCR.
If the test sheet is successfully
transmitted, it will be faxed back to you on the same connection. This lets you confirm that your setup is okay.
After receiving the test sheet, the
current date and time will automatically be programmed in your fax machine. This saves you the trouble of setting the date and time in the fax y ou r sel f.
