Incoming Calls

When you receive an incoming call:

▶A sound is played, unless the Silent Ringer feature is enabled.

▶The keypad is displayed.

▶If you have Caller ID, the phone number and, if available, the name of the caller are displayed.

▶If you are roaming and Call Guard is enabled (page 88), then the card beeps and a screen appears, stating that a roaming rate applies.

Tip: The Options window, displayed when you select MENU > Options, allows you to customize the sound played when you receive an incoming call and to enable and disable the Silent Ringer feature. (See page 77.)

Note: If an incoming call occurs while you have an active data connection, your caller will get a busy signal or be put through to your voicemail box.

To answer a call:

1.Connect a headset to the card, if one is not already connected.

2.Click the TALK button.

The indicator area displays the connection icon ; the message area displays “In Use” and shows the duration of the call.

Tip: If the Any-Key Answer feature is enabled, tap any key except END or BACK. On the Pocket PC, you can also use any of the four application buttons. On the notebook and Handheld PC, you can also use keys on your keyboard: A through Z, 0 through 9 and the * or # key.
