CSI

402020202020202020343332312035353520323430

Received a caller subscriber ID (numeric ID). The value of sender’s number registered in the receiver is transmitted.

The number is entered with ASCII character codes. (Same as TSI)
FCF=40

FIF=020202020202020343332312035353520323430

(ASCII character code 20 = space (S), 30-39 = 0-9, 2b = +)

  • ASCII conversion“SSSSSSSS1234S555S240”
  • If the order is reversed, ”042 555 1234 “
01136

DIS

8020C28AC480D5838018

Receives a digital identification signal (reception capability).

01257

TSI

432020202020202020202031333231313233353330

Sent a transmitting subscriber ID (numeric ID). The value of sender’s number registered in the sender is transmitted.

The number is entered with ASCII character codes. (Same as CSI)

FCF=43

FIF=2020202020202020202031333231313233353330

(ASCII character code 20 = space (S), 30-39 = 0-9, 2b = +)

  • ASCII conversion“SSSSSSSSSS1321123530”
  • If the order is reversed, “0353211231”
01265

DCS 830042F844

Received a digital identification signal (Sending mode).


TCF

Sent a training signal (V17/V29/V27ter only).

01268

CFR 84 Received a confirmation for receive signal.
01331

PIX

FF [33,600 bps (V.34) / MMR / A4 / 8x7.7 / 0(E:0)]

Received the 1st page of image signal. The communication status is described within [ ].

  • Communication speed (Protocol): 33.6kbps (V.34)
  • Coding method: MMR
  • Recording paper width: A4
  • Resolution: 8x7.7 (Fine)
  • Number of line (number of error line): 0(E:0) *. when ECM = OFF
03130

PPS - EOP BF2F0000FD

Received a end of procedure signal (the 1st page finished without next page).

FCF = BF2F, FIF = 0000FD (00 = 1st page, 00 = 1st block, FD = 254 frames)

If the number of frames exceeds 256, separate the pages by PPS-NULL and send them separately.

The frame size of PPS-NULL is always FF.

PPS-MPS is an ECM mode signal.

Use MPS in non-ECM mode.

03131

PPR

BC00000000F8FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Since there was an error in received PIX, specifies the error frame and requests retransmission. (A signal of ECM mode)

Error frame specifying method: “FFFF” (x1) represents 1 to 16 frames.

FFFF x 16 represents 1 to 256 frames.

Since 254 frames were transmitted, 1 is set for 255 to 256 frames.

Set to 1 for a reception error frame.

Since the frame specification is 0000 0000 F8FFF FFFF ..., 35 frames from 1 to 35 succeeded and 219 frames from 36 to 254 have been requested to be retransmitted.

PIX

FF [33,600 bps (V.34) / MMR / A4 / 8x7.7 / 0(E:0)]

Received a frame retransmission request for the 1st page of image signal. Communication status is described within [ ].

  • Communication speed (Protocol): 33.6kbps (V.34)
  • Coding method: MMR
  • Recording paper width: A4
  • Resolution: 8x7.7 (Fine)
  • Number of lines (including error lines): 0 (E: 0) * When ECM = OFF
04770

PPS - EOP BF2F0000DA

Received a end of procedure signal (the 1st page finished without next page).
FCF = BF2F, FIF = 0000DA (00 = 1st page, 00 = 1st block, DA = 219 frames)

04771

PPR

BC0000000000000000000000F0FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Since there was an error in received PIX, specifies the error frame and requests retransmission. (A signal of ECM mode)

How to specify error frames: Regard FFFF as one unit to represent 1 to 16 frames.

FFFF x 16 represents 1 to 256 frames.

Entry 1 to the reception error frame.

Since the frame specification is 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 00F0 FFFF ~, 57 frames 36 to 92 have succeeded and 162 frames with frame numbers 93 to 254 have been requested to be retransmitted.

PIX

FF [33,600 bps(V.34) / MMR / A4 / 8x7.7 / 960(E:1) ]

Received the 1st page of image signal.The communication status is described within [ ].

  • Communication speed (Protocol): 33.6kbps (V.34)
  • Coding method: MMR
  • Recording paper width: A4
  • Resolution: 8x7.7 (fine)
  • Number of line (number of error line) : 960 (E:1) An error occurs after receiving the 960th line
06612

DCN FB

The communication became impossible due to the error. It ended in failure by receiving a disconnect command from the sender.

PROTOCL V.34

Displays the protocol set at the start of communication (V.34 / V.17 / V.20).

SPEED 33.600Bps (3429)

Displays the communication speed at the time of the last communication () indicates the symbol rate.

CODING MMR

Displays the encoding method set at the start of communication (MMR / MR / MH).
