Any-Key Answer

This field allows you to enable and disable

 

the Any-Key Answer feature.

 

When enabled, you can answer an

 

incoming call by tapping any button on the

 

dial pad except END and CLR. (On the

 

Pocket PC, you can also use any of the

 

four application buttons. On the Handheld

 

PC, you can also use keys on your

 

keyboard: A through Z, 0 through 9 and the

 

* or # key.)

 

When disabled, you must tap the SEND

 

key to answer incoming calls.

 

Use the check box to enable and disable

 

the feature. (The feature is enabled when

 

checked.)

 

 

Tone Length

DTMF (Dual Tone Multi-Frequency) is the

 

system used by touch tone phones under

 

which a specific frequency or tone is

 

assigned to each key. There is a standard

 

length for these tones. However, some

 

voice mail systems require a shorter or

 

longer than normal length tone.

 

This field allows you to set the AirCard to

 

use a shorter or longer tone for systems

 

that require it.

 

The recommendation is to select normal

 

unless your service provider indicates that

 

a different tone length is required.

 

 

Level

This field allows you to adjust the volume of

 

the beep that occurs when you tap buttons

 

on the dial pad.

 

From the drop-down list, select a number.

 

A higher number will give a louder beep.

 

 

Mute

When DTMF mute is enabled, there is no

 

audible tone while the AirCard dials.

 

Use the check box to enable and disable

 

the feature. (The feature is enabled when

 

checked.)
