Receiving a Fax with Direct Aircraft Dialing
The fax machine in the air should be set to answer automatically.
1. The ground party calls 1-888 aircall number assigned to the airborne
fax machine.
2. The airborne fax answers and receives.
E3. Receiving a Fax via the CPI
To receive an incoming fax via the CPI you must use a handset that
has Aircraft Alerting enabled. It will also be required to have an
Inplane number assigned to the Fax Port to allow the call to be trans-
ferred.
There are two methods of accomplishing this, Call Forwarding or Call
Transfer. Call Forwarding must be established before the incoming fax
call is received. Please see Section I, C2 “Call Forwarding” for more
information.
For the Call Transfer feature, the user must make an Inplane
Conference call to the Fax port’s Inplane Number.
NOTE 1: The fax machine in the aircraft should be set to answer automatically.
NOTE 2: CDBR-2 ports configured for Fax, Modem, or PC are never alerted for
incoming calls to the Aircraft Terminal ID (which is used for incoming
GroundCell calls).
The procedure is as follows:
1. Using the fax machine on the ground, the ground party calls the
Cell Phone Number.
2. The user in the aircraft answers the incoming call at any ringing
handset.
3. The user in the aircraft presses “+” (Put Call on Hold).
4. The user in the aircraft presses “2” (Inplane) followed by the Fax
Port’s Inplane Number.
5. The fax machine in the aircraft answers.
6. The user in the aircraft presses “+” (add call to conference).
7. The user in the aircraft puts the handset on-hook.
NOTE: Call Forwarding and Call Transferring a fax call will require the fax
machine to be connected to a CDBR-2 analog port (J5 or J6) strapped
for “FAX.” Call Forwarded handsets are automatically unforwarded on
ARTU power down.
