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 transmission. Here, specify whether the ECM function is used for transmissions. If you use ECM transmission, error checking is carried out by both the sender and recipient during communication, so the ECM function must also be enabled at the receiving end. ECM transmission may slow down communication because error checking and corrections are carried out during transmission. Note also that even when ECM transmission is enabled, errors may still occur depending on the state of the phone lines. Enable ECM reception on the machine to reduce the number of errors that occur when the machine receives data. [ECM RX] |
