The +, #, *, p, w, -, [space] characters

The communicator allows you to insert special tones or pauses within a string of numbers for communications that require more complex input.

You can enter numbers and the following char- acters in the Tel, DTMF and Fax fields.

Tel field: +, #, *, p, w, -, [space]

DTMF field: #, *, p, w, -, [space]

Fax field: +, -, [space]

You may also enter these characters in alternate Tel, DTMF and Fax fields - for example, Tel (office).

For information on the functions of these char- acters see table 3-1.

When storing phone numbers or DTMF (touch tone) sequences, you can use hyphens and spaces to customize the appearance. This will not affect the way the numbers or DTMF tones will be dialed.

The “+” character

When sending SMS messages, some GSM1900 networks require that a “+” (plus) character pre- cede the area code and phone number. As the communicator has a specific place for GSM tele- phone numbers (Tel (GSM)), it is recommended

that you enter all GSM phone numbers in the format:

+1-area code-7 digit number.
