What is a “Dialing Location” and what would I use it for?

A Dialing Location is part of the Windows CE operating system. It is a set of rules that modify how phone numders are dialed, including area codes and special pre- fixes. You can define different Dialing Locations to simplify fax management situations. For example you could:

•Set your “Home” Dialing Location to disable call waiting by dialing the relevant prefix, e.g. *70 in the US before every fax number automatically.

•Set your “Work” Dialing Location to reach an outside line by dialing the relevant prefix, e.g. 9, before every fax number automically.

•Create a new Dialing Location for faxing from an area code or country you travel to regularly.

•Create a new Dialing Location for each different calling card you might want to use.

Why are phone numbers no longer dialing correctly when I try to send a fax?

This could be a problem with your Dialing Location or Dialing Patterns settings. To dial from a different area code or from a phone with special requirements you need to change your Dialing Location settings. To solve the problem, you can configure and select a new Dialing Location for the phone from which you want to dial.

How do I send fax to another country?

When you add a recipient, make sure sure to enter the correct country code for that person in the Country field. You do not need to add the international access code (011 in the US) to the recipient’s phone number. This is automatically dialed by bFAX™ to access an international phone line if your dialing locations are set correctly.
