Alternating calls

During an alternating call, you may change the mode of the call from voice to fax. Alternating calls can be made to a fax mailbox, for example: you initiate the call as a voice call, but it changes into a fax call when your fax mailbox starts to send you your faxes.

To make alternating calls you need to add a spe- cial Tel/Fax field to the contact cards of the ser- vices of your alternating calls (see Chapter 3 "Contacts: Contact cards - Customizing contact cards" on page 3-3).

You can also change a voice call into a fax call by pressing Change mode. Alternating calls cannot be put on hold or incorporated into a conference call.
