Pause Digit Entry
When storing a number, you can program your phone so that it will not only dial
a number but also pause and enter another series of numbers such as a personal
PIN or password. This feature is particularly useful for automated services such
as voice mail and banking systems.
Here’s how it works! Let’s say you have a company voice mail account that you
frequently check while on travel. And, to access that account you must do the
following:
•Dial your work number;
•Press # while the voice mail greeting is being played; and
•Enter your personal PIN to access your messages.
You can program your i2000 phone to enter all of the above informatio n for
you. All you have to do is separate each entry with a pause. If you were to
program your phone to automatically input the above information, the stored
data would look like this 17035551234P#P1234. In this example , the first
eleven digits represent the number that must be dialed to access your voi ce mail.
The P represents a 3 second pause. The # interrupts your greeting. The
second P represents another 3 second pause. The last four digits represent yo ur
personal PIN.
You can use this feature not only to enter personal PINs and passwords but also
to have the phone automatically select menu options (i.e., press 1 to hear
messages).
To create a three-second pause follow the steps below:
NOTE:You can enter up to 20 numbers/characters in a single entry,
stored or dialed.
NOTE:If you use a system that will not let you enter an option until the
automated message has played in its entirety, you can program
your phone to pause for more than 3 seconds. For example, per-
forming the above step twice will program two pauses and
cause your phone to wait 6 seconds before entering the next set
of numbers.
Press and hold * for two seconds. The pause symbol (P) will appear.
