[Asterisk-Users] incoming fax x100p

[Jim Sneeringer]

There is a special extension, called "fax," that you use to specify where
you want incoming fax calls to go.  It detects faxes by the CNG tone and
sends them where you specify.  Here is an example:

 exten => fax,1,Dial(${Fax}) ; Use Zap channel for 2004 instead of ${Fax}

There are some faxes that do not send CNG tones, so this will occasionally
fail for that reason. You might also send calls that time out to the fax
extension, or you can use distinctive ringing, as someone else suggested.

Let me know how this works for you. I am still having trouble with garbled
fax transmissions once I get a connection to the fax, and I would be
interested in your experience sending and receiving faxes.

Jim

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] incoming fax x100p

Hello all

I notice there have been many mails flying about regarding fax softare 
and hylafax..
I have what i thought would be a simpler solution but i am still a bit 
lost with it.
I have a normal fax machine installed as extension 2004 on a sipura.
I also have a X100P.
I think i am right in saying that the X100P can tell if a fax is coming 
in , does that mean i can redirect an incoming fax to ext 2004? of 
course i could be missing the plot completely and the X100P does can not 
do this.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Simon
