Re: Hylafax error

One phase in fax-fax communication is that the fax modems check to see the
fastest data rate that the two modems can exchange information. The
training check frame is the phase of a fax call when the sending fax
transmits a sequence of zeros to the receiving fax machine at the highest
common data rate negotiated during prior phases. This check determines
whether the line quality is adequate to pass information at the desired
rate. If the line quality is good, the receiving fax machine receives this
sequence of zeros without error. If line quality is not good, bit errors
will occur during reception, and the total amount of zeros is not received.

Basically this indicates a line quality issue.  Sometimes this error will
show up when using a VoIP connection.  Using analog FAX machines over VoIP
should be avoided.  Sometimes the connection will work...almost all the
time it won't.

Either the analog line quality is bad (check for loose connections locally
or call your telco to check the line) or the connection is over a VoIP
(which wont work).
Good luck
