Note! The NextCallType setting will be reset to Voice call after every incoming call. If you plan to receive several data calls, reset the feature after you complete each call.

Making Data and Fax Calls

When your phone and computer are properly set up, your phone will go into Data/Fax profile as soon as your fax or file transfer software is started. You are then ready to send a fax, or initiate data calls, as with any other modem.

Review the instructions from your mobile service pro- vider that describe the procedures and rules for making and receiving data calls in your area.

Note! Your phone will remain in Data/Fax profile until your phone cable is disconnected.

Note! To avoid unnecessary airtime charges, terminate your data calls as soon as you have finished transferring files by pressing the 12 key. Some software can be set to do this automatically.

Making Voice Calls While Connected to Your Computer

You can originate voice calls while your phone is in Data/Fax profile and you are not on a data call. You can receive voice calls if the NextCallType is set to Voice Call.

￿￿

Your Ericsson mobile phone enables you to initiate voice calls from Windows applications when connected to the Ericsson Voice Call Dialer. This is particularly useful if you have contact cards with phone numbers in a contact management application. You can open a contact card, click on the phone icon, and originate a call using your Ericsson mobile phone. Then you simply pick up your mobile phone and continue the call. The Ericsson Voice Call Dialer is compatible with most contact manager software packages. Refer to the “Manual Installation of Your Modem Driver” or “Voice Call Dialer” section at the end of this chapter for help with installing this driver for some operating systems.

Disconnecting

Disconnect your Ericsson mobile phone from your com- puter by disconnecting the cable from your phone and the serial port from your computer. When your fax pro- gram is stopped or when your interface cable is discon- nected, your phone will exit Data/Fax profile and return to the previously selected profile.
