Delay before time-out
When sending or receiving fax messages over a satellite connection, the fax
units at each end of the transmission line must be capable of handling
longer delays without timing out. Some fax machines have an Overseas
mode, which enables the unit to handle the long delays. Make sure that
your fax machine is set to allow long delays before time-out.
To send a fax message (air to ground) (SDU)
The fax machine must be connected to the Phone/Fax interface or the
ISDN interface of the SDU. For an analog fax machine 3.1 kHz Audio
should be used. For an ISDN G4 fax machine UDI must be used, refer to the
AVIATOR 700 Installation and maintenance manual for details how to
configure the ISDN interface.
To send a fax from the SDU, use the prefix 01 for fax, followed by the
called fax number including the country code, followed by #. For more
information how to override call types see To override the default
outgoing call type (SDU) on page 36.
Example: To send a fax to Cobham SATCOM VA (country code 1) over
Classic Aero press the following keys on the fax:
01 1 757 463 9557 #
To send a fax message (ground to air) (SDU)
To send a fax message to the SDU, dial: + <Mobile number> #
• + is the prefix used in front of the country code for international calls.
