6. Data and Fax Calls

Your phone can function as a fax/modem when

connected to your PC or laptop computer via the optional

DLR-3 Data Cable (available through your local Nokia

dealer). You must also have the appropriate fax or data

software installed and configured to send and receive

data or faxes through your phone.

Can I receive a data or fax call while a voice call

is in progress?

Yes. Your phone will display either Data call or Fax call,

depending on the type of incoming call. If no cable is

connected, the phone will display Fax call, connect data

cable or Data call, connect data cable. If you have Caller

ID, the caller’s name or number will also be displayed.

You must first terminate the voice call, then launch the

appropriate data or fax software and allow the software

to accept the incoming call.

Can I receive other calls while a data or fax call

is in progress?

No. The caller will receive a busy signal.

Can I place a voice call while a data or fax call is

in progress?

No. If a voice call is attempted while a data or fax call is

in progress, the phone will display End data call? Press

End to end the data call or Back to return to the data or

fax call in progress.

Getting started

Make sure your phone is connected to your computer via

the optional DLR-3 Data Cable and your computer

recognizes the new hardware.

See the installation and configuration instructions supplied with

the DLR-3 cable for more information.
