Multitech Fax Finder

Multitech Analog Fax Finder

The Multitech Analog Fax Finder will require an FXS Gateway to register as an extension on the PBX. Once configured, the fax finder will be connected to the FXS Gateway to receive and send calls. Inbound calls define their recipient by sending DP Digits inband when the Fax Finder answers the call.

• Register your FXS Gateway (Grandstream, PAP2, or IPr20) as an extension to the PBX.
  • Ensure that the DTMF modes in the PBX and the FXS Gateway match
• Navigate to Call Routing=>Incoming
• Point the desired Fax DID to the extension created for the Fax Finder
• Click the box with ... to set DP Digits
  • The DP Digits should correspond to the User that was created in the Fax Finder. This way, when the Fax Finder answers, the PBX plays the digits into the line and the Fax Finder can email the fax to the correct recipient.

Multitech SIP Fax Finder

The Multitech SIP Fax Finder will register to the PBX as a SIP provider. Once configured, calls will be sent to the Fax Finder via an Outbound Dialing Route. The digits dialed outbound will be read by the Fax Finder to define the recipient of the fax.
