Telular SX3i Variable Dial Time Auto Send Delay Option, Special Cellular Services, # * 11* 5 #

Phonecell Operation – Continued

Variable Dial Time (Auto SEND Delay) Option

When you place a call, your Phonecell SX3 automatically sends the phone num- ber over the cellular network after you dial the last digit – just like a landline phone. However, to make sure you have enough time to dial the last digit, a 3- second Auto SEND Delay is programmed into the unit. This delay also affects Special Functions such as Call Forwarding (see Special Cellular Services below).

You can set the Auto SEND Delay from 2 to 20 seconds using an ordinary tone- dial (DTMF) phone, which is sometimes referred to as a POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) phone. Note: you cannot change the delay while you are mak- ing a call.

How To Adjust the Auto SEND Delay - Pick up the telephone handset and listen for dial tone. Then, enter the User-Programming mode by pressing:

Φ# * 0 * 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 #

The dial tone should change to a steady “Programming” tone and the LED indicator on the front of your Phonecell should blink alternately RED and GREEN to indicate that you’re now in the Programming mode.

Next, press: Φ# * 11 * <Auto SEND Delay> #

The < > brackets represent the Auto SEND Delay. You must enter a value between 2 and 20 seconds. (For instance, to enter a 5-second delay, press:

# * 11* 5 #.)

If you enter the delay incorrectly, you’ll hear three short beeps followed by the programming tone. That is your cue to re-try the steps above. If correct, you’ll hear the programming tone again. Hang up. Your Phonecell is ready for use.

Special Cellular Services

Your Phonecell SX3 is compatible with a variety of special services such as call forwarding, call waiting, and more. Depending upon your cellular provider, these services may be available on a subscription basis. However, certain dialing sequences must be entered, which vary among service providers. Please consult your service provider for the dialing instructions for your system.

Call Forwarding – After you hear a dial tone on your telephone handset, dial the code required by the service provider, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds or press the HOOKFLASH.* Your Phonecell automatically transmits the call-forwarding information. Listen for the cellular carrier response. Then, hang up the phone. If you don’t wait for the response, your forwarding request may not be fulfilled.

*You can set this delay for 2 to 20 seconds. See the Variable Dial Time section above. NOTE: please wait 1 second longer than the delay programmed (i.e. for the 3-second delay mentioned above, wait 4 seconds).

Call Waiting – If your cellular provider requires codes to be entered involving dig- its 1-9, *, and # to answer a waiting call, the Out-of-Band Signaling option must be enabled. See the Data After SEND option on page 19.
