Features

Telex 80 for Network

With Telex 80 you can perform all traditional telex functions significantly faster and more economically than with the traditional telex machine. With multiple PCs connected in a network, the telex functions are available from each PC in the LAN network, and all transmitted and received telexes are accessible and can be viewed on any of the PCs. Therefore Telex 80 for Network is the ideal solution for companies who want decentralized and direct access to telex messaging from a number of PC's.

Your telex message is prepared with your standard word processing program - or you may use the word processor integrated into the klient program, TelexFax/Win. Once written, the telex message is transferred to the Telex 80 box, which automatically transmits the message to the previously entered number on one of the telex linies. Reception and optional printing of telex is fully automatic and independent of the normal functions of the LAN server connected to the Telex 80 box. It even works if the LAN server is turned off. All incoming telexes are stored in the memory of the Telex 80 box, and can be printed automatically on a printer connected to the Telex 80 board. Transmission of telex messages however require the LAN server to be on, but messages sent from the PC workstations

Telex 80 - the most advanced Telex system today
Telex 80 contains a large number of features and user facilities, which combined with its modular design and field upgradability, makes it the most advanced telex processor on the market today for handling multiple telex lines in your company. The following gives a short summary of the many features of the Telex 80, which makes it the easiest and most problem-free telex solution today.

Telex around the clock: Normally the Telex 80 will try to send the telex message as soon as possible according to the priority given by the user. However, in many cases you may want to send the message at a pre-programmed time and/or date. Just write your message using the appropriate command and transfer it to Telex 80, which takes care of the rest.

Priority: A ten-level priority system enables critical messages to be given preference over other messages.

Call intervals: Call intervals may be defined by the supervisor to tune the system to match the present needs.

Re-dialing: Re-dialing is performed automatically by Telex 80 in case the receiver is occupied, out of order etc.

Dialog: The dialog function is a must for many users of telex. When using Telex 80 each user can enter into dialog and it is possible to have as many simultaneous dialogs as there are telex interfaces in the Telex 80.

Logs: Logs for in- and outgoing messages secure the system and reduce the administration to a minimum.

Auto storage/delete: The auto storage function secures that copies of all messages are stored in or deleted from Telex 80 according to instructions.

Follow up on messages: To follow up on messages stored in Telex 80, the user opens the TelexFax/Win and can now view, print, change, move, delete and reactivate any telex message within the rights of a given operator.

Security: To obtain a secure as well as a non-restrictive system, each operator must log on using a unique password. Another feature is that the operator can protect any outgoing message from heing read or manipulated by any other operator. Furthermore, incoming messages can he protected from all operators, with exception of the supervisor. Finally, only the supervisor has access to sensitive functions.

User alphabet: User individual alphabets may be defined for automatic translation into valid telex characters including expansion on a 1:15 basis.

Short numbers: An almost unlimited number of user-defined short numbers, including answer backs, may be defined and stored in Telex 80.

Modular design: Modularity is one of the basic concepts of the Telex 80 Systems. Hence you can start with the smallest System 2 with 1 telex line interface and up to 5 terminal interfaces and field upgrade it up to 4 telex line interfaces, I teletex interface and 8 terminal interfaces.

Memory extension: Memory in Telex 80 is as big as 128 KB of which 80 KB is at the users disposal.
Memory may be field upgraded to 256 KB all of which is at users disposal.

Teletex interface: A teletex interface is optional to field upgrade Telex 80 System 2 and 3 for direct connection to the teletex network

Printer connection: A Centronics Parallel printer interface is standard for automatic printing of all in- and outgoing messages, logs etc.

Battery back-up: In case of power failure, data stored in Telex 80 is maintained by an integrated rechargeable battery with power for at least 30 days back up.
