Fax Unit
In this fax unit, the FCU and MBU boards have been
combined. Because of this, the data backup procedure has
been changed.
The optional memory module is the same as previous
models.
The FCU contains the ROM, SRAM and NCU circuits.
Fax Options:
Handset (for the USA): This is a new model.
Extra G3 Interface option: This provides one more analog
line interface. This allows full dual access. Two extra G3
interface options can be installed.
Memory Expansion: This expands the SAF memory and the
page memory (used for image rotation); without this
expansion, the page memory is not big enough for image
rotation at 400 dpi, so transmission at 400 dpi is not
possible.
