WinXP Pro + Fax Console + Caller ID

[Guest x]

Hello,

 

 

 

i been breaking my head over this. What type of modem does Windows XP Pro.

Fax Services require in order for Fax Console to recognize and fill in the

"Caller ID" field?

 

 

 

1. i have tried 3 different modems (generic, generic, robotics)

 

2. all three different modems recognize the caller id when using AT+VCID=1

string, via HyperTerminal

 

3. in modem Control Panel, the string AT+VCID=1 is typed in the Advanced tab

"Extra initialization commands"

 

 

 

but, yet Fax Console will not display the caller id.

 

 

 

Any guidance or ideas are much greatly appriciated.

Are you talking about when the fax is received it should show the

senders ID on the top of the page when printed. Just like a

standard fax machine does. Normally they print the company name and

phone #. Is this what you are after?

If so then you do nothing. The one time I had it loaded it just did

it. I thought it was a factor of the sender having those items

configured in their fax machine. I know that both setting up the fax

software in XP and on a machine both have a place to put those to pieces

of info. And I don't think the caller ID feature on your phone is used

for this, it comes from the sender.

 

Of course this is all my observations, I don't have too much facts to

back it up except just plain of hands on. And its been 1-2 years since

I did it. So I could be wrong. Just FYI.

Thx for the reply Al, but what i am referring to is:

1. Open (if installed) Fax Console

2. in the GUI you will see headings on the columns (one of them says Caller

ID)

3. when you recieve a fax, the Senders CAller ID is displayed

 

4. Yes, i have caller id feature turn on my telephone line

5. no i am not talking about TSID

6. no i am not talking about CSID

 

thx....
