ECM (Error Correction Mode) is a function that conducts checking and correction to ensure that corrupted images are not sent when an error occurs during image reception. Here, specify whether the ECM function is used for reception. If you use ECM reception, error checking is carried out by both the sender and recipient during communication, so the ECM function must also be enabled at the sender’s end. ECM reception may slow down communication because error checking and correction are conducted during communication. Note also that even when ECM reception is enabled, errors may still occur depending on the state of the phone lines. Enable ECM transmission on the machine to reduce the number of errors that occur when the machine sends data. [ECM TX] |
