# Destination Settings -- Advanced

The advanced destination settings are available for Fax, RDT, Email and Pager destinations.

The advanced parameters that can be set for Fax are shown below:

Report Image Resolution -- Used to set the resolution that the Catalyst will use when delivering a report to a fax machine. The fine resolution will improve the quality of the type/fonts used for the report, but will also increase the amount of time needed to deliver the report. The standard resolution should be adequate for most reporting purposes.

Include Cover Page -- Cover page includes information on Catalyst's statistics and counts.

Number of pages per report -- This parameter is only used when a more important session is pending. If there is a notification report pending, the download will stop at the maximum number of pages. The Catalyst will then make appropriate notification calls. Once acknowledged, the Catalyst will call back the fax machine and complete the report. If there are no pending notifications, then this parameter is ignored.

Maximum transmission time per page -- This will prevent a transmission from getting stalled. If a transmission takes too much time, the Catalyst will disconnect. The data will remain marked as undelivered, so the Catalyst will end this session. The Catalyst will make another attempt to download when appropriate.

The advanced parameters that can be set for Alphanumeric Pager are shown below:

Callback String – This is the number that the report will display as the number to call when the report is received. By default, the callback number is the RTU phone number.

Use RTU Phone Number -- This button will retrieve the RTU phone number from the configuration database and place the information here for review.

Pager Terminal Block Size – This parameter controls the fragmentation of reports into blocks. The Range is 120 to 32000.

Note: lowering the terminal block size could introduce message truncation. To verify there are no truncated messages, go to the Channel Status messages and spin through each message. A warning will be given when a truncation is detected.

Report Block Limit – This parameter will control the total length of any report. The Range is 1 to 9 blocks, with the default set to 3 blocks. When the block limit is set to 3, there will be a maximum of three report blocks delivered to the pager.

Pager Identification Number – This number is used during a TAP communication to indicate the target terminal (alphanumeric pager) during the session with the service provider..

Pager Password – Used during a TAP session as a security precaution.

CR/LF Translation –Provides the way to control line layout for any specific terminal.

Exclude Tag Words – Provides a way to prevent all tag words from appearing in any channel status message reported to this destination. Helps reduce the overall report byte count.
