3. Configuration Commands

Configuration Commands Summary

Not all commands are available with every CP Fax board. For the capabilities available on the boards installed in the host system, see the appropriate hardware installation guide for the specific board.

The Dispatcher and the firmware may be customized with commands in the registry. The GDK configuration commands used in the registry and their functions are summarized in Table 6. The remainder of this chapter is an alphabetical list of configuration commands.

NOTE:

In the following table, the term "on-the-fly" refers to files converted automatically at the time of transmission on the CP Fax board.
