2. Description
We have received reports of communication problems (various error codes), and loss of
dial tone in speaker mode, when using AR-FX2 with certain revisions of British Telecom’s
‘Home Highway’ / ‘Business Highway’ ISDN system. As a countermeasure, an updated
firmware version for the AR-FX2 is available, and this can be applied by sending the Fax
PWB to TP Serviceco for reprogramming.
Any Fax firmware versions lower than 5.03 could exhibit the symptoms listed above, but
please note that they do not occur when the machine is used on analogue telephone lines.
Upgrade is not necessary unless communication problems are experienced when using
AR-FX2 on one of the BT ISDN services. To check the firmware version currently installed,
with the copier in FAX mode, enter Simulation mode (CLEAR – INTERRUPT – ZERO –
INTERRUPT), then enter main code 22 and sub code 14. The currently installed version
should then be displayed on the screen of the A1R-PA1.
The cost for reprogramming of AR-FX2’s Fax PWB is £10.00 plus return carriage, and
VAT. For more details, contact TP Serviceco on 0161 626 4067.
