NOTE: You should also set the fax machine to tone dialing and not pulse dialing. Pulse dialing causes voltage spikes on the line that can be mistaken for an incoming ring, and the FaxReceiver will attempt to answer. Copyright 2006 Ri

That means that you will be able to telnet into the FaxReceiver from your desk, enable debug, send a fax to the unit (also from your desk), and figure out what is going wrong. If you change the TELNET port number and don't reboot, the new number takes effect on the *second* new telnet session. i.e. open telnet on default port 23. Change to port

PROBLEM: I have a fax machine used for outgoing faxes connected to a phone splitter with the FaxReceiver. When I try to send a fax, it does not dial.
