Fax Everywhere Control Panel and Service Panel Reference Guide

for Version 1.00

Message Types

The Fax Everywhere Service Panel and Fax Everywhere Control Panel display the following types of messages: Information, Confirmation, Warning, and Error. These messages have the following properties:

• Information: an information message informs the user about something that is not a problem and presents no choice. Usually an information message window will have only these buttons: OK and Help. Usually you can click the OK button and continue.
  
  
• Confirmation: a confirmation message gives the user a choice, but either choice is usually safe, or at least does not by itself create an immediate danger. A confirmation message window has Yes, No, and Help buttons, or buttons with other words representing the choice.
  
  
• Warning: a warning message describes a condition in which something is wrong and all of the following are true:

  ¨ The user should know about it; and:

  ¨ The user does not necessarily have to correct the problem immediately (although user neglect might cause a problem later); and:

  ¨ The program can complete the user's current command or the current operation; and:

  ¨ The program can continue running.

• Error: an error message describes a condition in which something is wrong and any of the following are true:

  ¨ The user must correct something; or:

  ¨ The program cannot complete the user's current command or the current operation; or:

  ¨ The program cannot continue running; or:

  ¨ Something is fundamentally wrong with the computer (for example, a file system error).
