DosFax LITE User’s Guide iii Overview 1

Sending a document facsimile (fax) with DosFax LITE is easy. After you install DosFax LITE, you simply use the Print command from DOS or any DOS application. You install DosFax LITE as an application and as two TSRs (Terminate but Stay Resident, or memory resident, programs). Then, when in DOS, your print output is redirected from your printer, captured, converted to a fax image, and sent to the fax communication TSR for transmission directly to a fax device. You can send conveniently from your word processor, desktop publishing package, or forms processing package-in fact, from any DOS application. You can also send directly from the DosFax LITE application called Administrator.

Receiving faxes with DosFax LITE is just as easy. Faxes arrive and are logged in while you are in DOS or any DOS application, without interrupting what you are doing. Received faxes are automatically stored for viewing at your convenience.

b) Swapping

The DosFax LITE Capture TSR, during loading, analyzes the availability of extended memory (XMS) and expanded memory (EMS) in your system. The TSR swaps to that memory, if available, to function and to optimize its perfor- mance. If XMS or EMS is not available, the TSR will swap to a file instead. The default is XMS and EMS swapping enabled. If you wish to disable the TSR’s use of EMS or XMS, deselect the corresponding option.

c)Modem Strings

i) Initialize - This character string initializes the fax/modem when the DosFax LITE Communication TSR is loaded. You can specify up to 39 characters of data. All data is sent directly to the fax/modem, except the following characters: “N’ specifies a 2 second pause, and “\“ specifies a carriage return. (To put the backslash character, “\“, in your string, enter “\\“.) For example, to reset the fax/modem and then set the wait time to 60 seconds, type

ATZ0\MATS7=60\

ii) Terminate - This character string executes when the DosFax LITE Communication TSR is removed from memory. The string form is the same as for initialize.

d) Hot Keys - You may customize TSR “hot keys” for Re- ceive/Abort, Capture Start, Send, Stop, Pause and Status. Specify your own hot key sequences by typing them in the corresponding TSR hot key field in the dialog box according to the following nomenclature:

2-14 DosFax LITE User’s Guide Installing DosFax LITE Changing the DosFax LITE Configuration Operating DosFax LITE and WinFax LITE at the Same Time

WinFax LITE is the Windows version of DosFax LITE. Both products look and work very much alike. In fact, they can share the same logs and phonebook on systems where both programs exist. Nevertheless, their operating environments-DOS and Windows, respectively-are very different. As such, you should only attempt to operate in each environment with the product designed for that environment. For example, it is not recom- mended you use DosFax LITE for sending or receiving faxes in the DOS window in Windows; use only WinFax LITE when working in Windows.

Note: If you use WinFax LITE and DosFax LITE together, do not load the WinFax (receive in DOS) TSR. The DosFax LITE Communication TSR, when loaded, will perform the receive function in DOS. When you enter Windows, the DosFax LITE Communication TSR is temporarily disabled and will re-enable automatically when you exit Windows.

DosFax LITE User’s Guide 2-15 Sending Faxes 3

This section explains in detail the process of sending a fax, and describes related activities including: l monitoring the progress of faxes you have sent, and l rescheduling or cancelling faxes.

DosFax LITE provides two methods of sending a fax. n Sending from any DOS application

Generate a fax of the document you are working on in your current DOS application such as word processing, desktop publishing, forms, spreadsheet or database. Add a cover page, if desired, before sending.

DosFax LITE’s Capture (print) and Communication (send/receive) TSRs fit seamlessly into your DOS environment and work easily with all your DOS applications. w Sending from DosFax LITE Administrator

Sending from DosFax LITE Administrator is best suited to sending brief fax messages “on the fly”. Type or insert a short text block into a predefined DosFax LITE fax cover page.

These two methods share the same basic procedure with some minor differences. The following chapters highlight the differences.

The following tables tell you how to select program menus, commands, fields, options and list items using the keyboard and using a mouse.

DosFax LITE User’s Guide 3-3 Sending from a DOS Application Sending Faxes Sending from a DOS Application

After you load DosFax LITE Communication and Capture TSRs, you can send a fax without leaving the DOS application in which you prepared your document.

Normally, DosFax LITE Communication and Capture TSRs are loaded as part of your AUTOEXEC.BAT file each time you start your computer. However, if they are not already loaded, do all following steps; otherwise, start at step 3 to send a fax.

1. You must first load the DosFax LITE Communication TSR. Go to the directory in which DosFax LITE resides and, at the DOS prompt, type . . .

FAXCOM

and then press ENTER. The following message appears on the screen . . .

initializing Modem Please Wait!

When the fax/modem is successfully initialized and the DosFax LITE Communication TSR loaded, confirmation appears on the screen.

2. You must next load the DosFax LITE Capture TSR so you can send your application’s print output for faxing. Type . . .

FAXCAP

and then press ENTER. When the TSR is successfully loaded, confirmation appears on the screen.

Notes: l The sequence in which Communication and Capture TSRs is loaded is crucial. You must load FAXCOM before FAXCAP. Failure to do so may cause data in conventional memory above 320K to be swapped out temporarily to EMS or XMS memory, or to disk. In addition, any network TSRs, such as IPX and NET3, must be loaded before DosFax LITE TSRs.

3-4 DosFax LITE User’s Guide Sending Faxes Sending from a DOS Application

l To unload DosFax LITE Communication and Capture TSRs from memory, simply add -U to the end of each TSR load command. You must type and then ENTER the following commands in this order . . .

FAXCAP -u FAXCOM -u

DosFax LITE TSR and Capture unloaded messages appear on the screen.

l While the DosFax LITE Communication TSR is loaded, do not load any other communication TSR. If another communication TSR is loaded, unload it before continuing.

3. You can now start up a DOS application and prepare a document for faxing. When you are ready to fax your document, you must first switch Capture on to redirect your print output. Hold down left CTRL and SHIFT keys simultaneously and then press C. Three beeps sound.

Capture may be toggled on and off as necessary. Once Capture is on, it remains on until you:

t Cancel capture by holding down left CTRL and SHIFT keys simultaneously and then press x (two beeps sound), or

l Send your document(s) as a fax by holding down left CTRL and SHIFT keys simultaneously and then press F.

While Capture is on, you can return to normal printing by entering the Capture Pause mode. Hold down left CTRL and SHIFT keys simultaneously and then press P to suspend capture temporarily so you can print normally. Three beeps sound.

Capture Pause may also be toggled on and off as necessary. Once Capture Pause is on, it remains on until you use the same key sequence-hold down left CTRL and SHIFT keys simultaneously and then press P (or C) to return to Capture.

To view Capture/Pause status, at any time, hold down left CTRL and SHIFT keys simultaneously and then press I. Press any key to continue.

Note: You can redefine TSR hot keys to meet your particular requirements. Refer to Hot Keys, page 2-12.

4. Print your document as you would normally by following all the printing procedures specified in your DOS application.

Note: DosFax LITE emulates an Epson FX85 dot matrix printer. To “capture print”, in your DOS application you must first select an Epson model printer. (Refer to Appendix B, Printing to Fax, and Fonts for information on compatible printers.)

Hint: Capture works independent of the DOS application. This means, when Capture is on, you can continuously capture and append documents from many applications. When you are ready to send them, they become a single fax transmission.

5. To send the document(s) as a fax, hold down left CTRL and SHIFT keys simultaneously and then press F. The Fax Send dialog box appears on the screen.

Note: You do not need to capture data to send a fax from DOS. You can always send a cover page with a brief note at any time.

6. Fill in the appropriate details in the Fax Send dialog box as follows:

a) Recipient

TO - Type in the name of the intended recipient (a person, company name or a combination of the two). To select a name from your online phonebook, use the Select button. The To field is filled in automatically from your phonebook selection.

Number - Select the Number field and type in the fax telephone number of the intended recipient. The actual number dialed by the fax system is formed by appending this number to the Prefix number. If you select a name from your online phonebook, this field is filled in automatically.

DosFax LITE User’s Guide 3-7 Sending from a DOS Application Sending Faxes Prefix -The prefix is a digit or series of digits that must be dialed before dialing the actual fax number. The dial prefix can be up to 9 characters in length.

For example, many PBX office systems require “9” be dialed to obtain an outside line. In this case, you select this field and type “9,“. (The comma adds a short pause before the rest of the telephone number is dialed.) This dial prefix would then always be dialed prior to calling the fax number.

The default value of the dial prefix is set in the Fax/Modem Setup dialog box that is accessible via the Setup command (refer to page 5-12). This value is automatically placed in the Fax Send dialog box, and you typically will not need to change it.

Select - Use this command to view and choose from entries in your online fax phonebook. The Phonebook Entries dialog box appears on the screen. (The following shows sample phonebook selections.)

box, you can select a different recipient or group by selecting the appropriate name.

Select OK when you have chosen the desired recipient or group. The To and Number fields in the Fax Send dialog box are then filled in automatically.

b) Time to send -This field displays the current time on your computer. If you wish to send a fax immediately, do not change the setting displayed here. If you wish to send the fax at a different time, change the hours, minutes or seconds value by selecting the field and typing a new value. Use the left and right arrow keys (t,+) on the keyboard to switch between hours, minutes and seconds.

Scheduling faxes to be sent at other times (refer also to Scheduling Faxes, page 3-15) lets you accommodate international time differences and take advantage of lower telephone rates outside of peak hours.

c) Date to send -This field displays the current date on your computer. If you wish to send a fax immediately, do not change the setting displayed here. If you wish to send the fax on a different date, select the field and type a new value. As with Time to send, switch between month, day and year using the left and right arrow keys (+,-+I on the keyboard.

Note: The DosFax LITE Communication TSR must be loaded in memory if you have scheduled faxes to be sent at future times.

d) Resolution - Select the resolution of the fax transmission as either 200 x 200 dots per inch (dpi) or 200 x 100 dpi.

e) Cover Page - DosFax LITE lets you create a simple fax cover page, on demand, if you have not already prepared one in the application from which you are faxing. The DosFax LITE cover page displays a standard information block (to, from, date, time, number of pages) to which you can add a message, if desired.

One advantage of the DosFax LITE cover page is that it can automatically extract information from sources such as the following . . .

4-14 DosFax LITE User’s Guide Using DosFax LITE Administrator 5

When you send or receive a fax using DosFax LITE, the DosFax LITE Communication TSR performs the actual dialing or places the fax/modem in receive mode, establishes the connection with the remote fax device and transmits or receives the fax image.

DosFax LITE Administrator provides you with information and capabilities that make sending and receiving faxes especially easy and efficient. DosFax LITE Administrator allows you to do the following:

l Change the way DosFax LITE is configured to send and receive faxes.

l View fax send and receive status messages.

l Create and maintain an online phonebook of fax recipients, telephone numbers and broadcast groups.

l List faxes scheduled to be sent and received faxes you have not yet deleted. Obtain information on these events, and view the pages making up any fax event. Manipulate the list by removing events and rescheduling faxes to be sent.

The DosFax LITE Communication TSR monitors the current date and time on your computer, and compares that information with the date and time required to send any faxes you have scheduled for future delivery. When a scheduled time comes up, the DosFax LITE Communication TSR gives the fax/modem the appropriate commands to establish a connection and send the fax. After the fax is sent or a send has been attempted, DosFax LITE Administrator stores information about the event in the send log. If DosFax LITE is set up to receive faxes automatically, the DosFax LITE Communication TSR constantly monitors the line for incoming faxes. As with send events, DosFax LITE Adminis- trator stores information about received faxes in the receive log.

DosFax LITE User’s Guide 5-1 DosFax LITE Administrator Activities Using DosFax LITE Administrator DosFax LITE Administrator Activities

Handling Fax, Events

DosFax LITE lets you send a fax at any date and time in the future. This feature lets you accommodate international time differences and take advantage of lower telephone rates outside of peak hours.

Event List

Whenever you send, schedule to send, or receive a fax, DosFax LITE enters each fax “event” into a list of pending and received items. If the fax is to be sent immediately, transmission occurs almost directly after DosFax LITE processing is completed. If the fax is scheduled for future sending, the event is kept on the pending list until its time and date are current with the time and date on your computer. Received fax events are logged in at the date and time they are received.

The fax event list appears in the DosFax LITE Administrator’s display area as follows:

5-2 DosFax LITE User’s Guide Using DosFax LITE Administrator DosFax LITE Administrator Activities

Each event is listed with the following information from left to right:

l PEND if the fax is scheduled to be sent; RECD if the fax is newly received

l date and time the fax is scheduled to be sent or was received

l number of pages in the fax (including cover page)

l name or fax number of the recipient or calling station, and

l event status.

The event at the top of the list is the next fax to be sent, or the received fax that has been on the list longest. The event list displays a maximum of 100 events at a time; however, you can schedule an unlimited number of faxes.

Event Information

Select the Event Information command from the Fax menu to obtain information on any selected fax event in the event list, including:

l name or fax number of the recipient or calling station

l resolution at which the fax is to be sent or was received

l number of pages sent or received, and

l duration of the send or receive event.

For example:

Note: The preceding example shows zeros in the Pages Sent, Duration and Retries fields because the event is scheduled and has not yet taken place.

Receive Event Information

Refer to the Event Information command, page 5-8, for further details.

Removing and Rescheduling Events

From the events list, you can remove pending or received events, and reschedule pending events for different dates and times. Refer to the Remove Event and Reschedule commands, pages 5-7 and 5-17, respectively, for further details.

Monitoring Fax Progress

If you have not enabled Display Call Progress, but you would like to check on how a fax send or receive is proceeding, you can do so from within DosFax LITE Administrator. Fax send and receive status messages appear in the Fax Event Status box below the DosFax LITE Administrator display area.

5-4 DosFax LITE User’s Guide Using DosFax LITE Administrator DosFax LITE Administrator Activities I I

During an actual send or receive, transmission information displays about the modem’s sending/receiving status; number of the page being transmitted; elapsed transmission time, in minutes and seconds; and the other fax device’s station identification.

Logging Fax Events

The send and receive logs provide historical listings of previous fax events. The logs include successful events, cancelled events and those that failed due to conditions such as transmission errors, busy signals, or no reply.

Events are sorted according to the date and time they occurred, with the most recent events appended to the end of the list. Additional information at the bottom of both logs shows more details about your fax transmissions and receptions. In addition, you can resubmit faxes to be sent again, view sent or received faxes and print log reports, among other activities. Refer to Send Log, page 5-18 and Receive Log, page 5-23 for further details.

Setting Up Your Phonebook

DosFax LITE Administrator lets you enter frequently used fax recipients into an online fax directory, or phonebook. You can also combine a number of recipients in a phonebook into a single group, or distribution list. This allows you to send-or broadcast-a single fax to a group of recipients, rather than a separate DosFax LITE User’s Guide Menus and Commands Using DosFax LITE Administrator fax to each recipient. Refer to Phonebook, page 5-27, for information on this feature.

For example, if you send product bulletins to all your dealers and distributors, you could create a phonebook group called “Prod- uct Bulletins”. You would then add the individual phonebook entries for each of your dealer and distributor companies to this phonebook group. You would create your product bulletins in a DOS word processing or desktop publishing application and “print capture” them. When you go to send the bulletins using DosFax LITE and you are asked to enter the fax destination, you would choose the “Product Bulletins” group in the phonebook. DosFax LITE sends the fax to each member of the “Product Bulletins” group.

Menus and Commands

DosFax LITE User’s Guide 6-3 Solving Common Problems

The following are some common problems you may encounter during the installation and operation of DosFax LITE, and how you can probably solve them.

Installing DosFax LITE

Situation

DosFax LITE does not recognize your fax/modem as compatible.

Solution

At the DOS prompt of the directory in which DosFax LITE resides, type . . .

MODEM and then press ENTER. In the dialog box that appears, select Unknown, if not already selected. Select OK and DosFax LITE will test your COM ports to detect the port and type of fax/modem installed. The Checking Port and Modem dialog box that appears displays important information about your fax/modem. If the fax/modem located is not compatible, record the displayed information and contact your fax/modem manufacturer.

Situation

The mouse attached to your computer system is Microsoft compatible and works with several applications. When running DosFax LITE Administrator, the mouse does not work.

DosFax LITE User’s Guide A-1 Sending Faxes Solving Common Problems

Solution

Some applications contain special driver support when using a mouse. DosFax LITE does not because it uses the mouse driver installed before running the application. You must, therefore, load either MOUSE.COM or MOUSE.SYS before starting DosFax LITE in order to use a mouse with DosFax LITE. See your mouse documentation for information.

Situation

When attempting to use a hot key sequence to invoke a function in DosFax LITE, a function from within the current DOS application is invoked instead.

Solution

The setup for DosFax LITE allows you to change the key sequences for invoking TSR program operations. You should find a key sequence not used in any of your applications, and redefine that particular sequence for the TSR program. Refer to Hot Keys on page 2-12.

Sending Faxes

Situation

DosFax LITE stops operating- or “hangs” -as you are starting to send a fax. The “initializing” message appears within DosFax LITE Administrator’s Fax Event Status dialog box-but then nothing else happens.

Solution

This situation arises due to a communication problem between your DosFax LITE software and your fax/modem. Check the following:

1. Ensure your fax/modem is connected to the serial port specified for DosFax LITE when you installed it (for example, “COM 1 - Modem Type: Class2”)

A-2 DosFax LITE User’s Guide Solving Common Problems Sending Faxes

2. If your fax/modem appears to be connected to the specified port, you can further check the connection. At the DOS prompt of the directory in which DosFax LITE resides, type . . .

MODEM

and then press ENTER. Select Unknown in the dialog box that appears. DosFax LITE will test your COM ports to detect the port and type of fax/modem installed. The Checking Port and Modem dialog box that appears displays important information about your fax/modem. If the fax/modem located is compatible, select Continue to initialize and set up your fax/modem for DosFax LITE. If not, record the displayed information and contact your fax/modem manufacturer.

Situation

You receive “No carrier” messages and are unable to send faxes to international destinations.

Solution

Increasing the value of the wait time for carrier/dial tone on your fax/modem can alleviate this problem. Add the following setting to the Init String field of the Fax/Modem Setup dialog box (accessible from DOS via the SETUP command):

ATS7=n

where “n” is an increased carrier wait time value in seconds. For example, you may wish to increase a 30 second wait time to 40 or 45 seconds.

Attempt to send another fax to an international destination.

Situation

Your fax will not send to a fax machine connected to a switching device that automatically directs the call to either the fax machine or answering machine.

DosFax LITE User’s Guide A-3 Sending Faxes Solving Common Problems

Solution

When sending a fax, DosFax LITE could encounter a phone line switcher. Phone line switchers attempt to detect if a fax device is calling and, if so, to redirect the call to the fax machine. Detection may take several seconds. To ensure DosFax LITE allows enough time to make a connection, add the following initialization string in the DosFax LITE setup

ATS7=90

DosFax LITE will then wait up to 90 seconds to make a connection.

Situation

Some printers emulate the Epson FX85 dot matrix printer. DosFax LITE also emulates this printer. However, because printers that emulate other printers may also have extra enhancements, such as additional fonts, when attempting to fax with these enhancements the results are not correct.

Solution

DosFax LITE is designed to emulate the popular Epson FX85 printer standard. Any enhancements that do not comply with these standards, such as additional fonts, will not be recognized by DosFax LITE. Refer to Appendix B for more information.

A-4 DosFax LITE User’s Guide Solving Common Problems Receiving Faxes Receiving Faxes

Situation

Your telephone line is for both voice and fax calls, and DosFax LITE answers all calls, including voice calls.

Solution

Until the telephone is answered, the type of incoming call cannot be determined. You can purchase an automatic fax line switcher that will answer the telephone and direct the call as required. Or, if you prefer, you can contact your phone company about a service called “Identacall”. Identacall gives you up to three different phone numbers, each with its own unique ring pattern. One number would then detect the fax ring pattern and send the call to DosFax LITE; another number would detect voice calls only. The best solution, however, is to have a dedicated fax line installed by your phone company.

Situation

When you start up DosFax LITE, the following message appears:

Modem is not responding

Solution

Check the following:

1. Make sure your fax/modem is properly installed and switched on.

2. Go to the directory in which DosFax LITE resides and, at the DOS prompt, type . . .

MODEM

and then press ENTER.

DosFax LITE User’s Guide A-5 Receiving Faxes Solving Common Problems In the dialog box that appears, select Unknown, if not already already selected. Select OK and DosFax LITE will test your COM ports to detect the port and type of fax/modem installed. The Checking Port and Modem dialog box that appears displays important information about your fax/modem. If the fax/modem responds and is compatible, select Continue to initialize and set up your fax/modem for DosFax LITE. If not, record the displayed information and contact your fax/modem manufacturer.

Situation

The following error message appears when you attempt to print or view a specific page in a received fax:

Invalid Image File

Solution

This message appears when there were several transmission errors during the fax reception. Ask the sender to fax again the specific pages you cannot print or display.

A-6 DosFax LITE User’s Guide Printing to Fax, and Fonts B

DosFax LITE emulates the Epson FX85 dot matrix printer and earlier Epson models, and can send documents as faxes from any DOS application that can print to an Epson printer.

It is simple to “print to fax”:

1. Load the DosFax LITE Capture TSR, FAXCAP.EXE.

2. In your DOS application, select an Epson model printer for your output and prepare your document for printing normally.

Note: Choose an Epson printer that is the closest Epson model to an Epson FX85 dot matrix printer. For Epson emulation, DosFax LITE provides 10, 12 and 16 pitch fonts. When printing to your real printer, select any appropriate printer model.

3. Switch Capture on by holding down left CTRL and SHIFT keys simultaneously and then press C.

4. Print to the parallel (LPT) port DosFax LITE is configured for. DosFax LITE captures the print data, but instead of printing to paper, it converts your print output to a fax image for sending.

Hint: Assign different parallel ports for printing and for faxing. For example, define your real printer on LPTl for actual printing and an Epson printer on LPT2 for DosFax LITE print capture. Then, when faxing, you need only switch printer ports within your application.
