Zoom Dialer 26 manual Routing Commands, #93##, Bypassing the Dialer in AutoRoute Mode

Example: If your local area code is 555, take your phone off-hook and enter #94 555 ##.

After getting this command, the dialer will no longer auto- route calls within your local calling area. (Note: your local calling area may include from one to about ten area codes. You only have to enter your own area code. The dialer knows all the other area codes in your local calling area.)

Note: If you skip this step and you will use the dialer to auto-route North American domestic calls, you must be sure you want to route all numbers that start with 1, even if they are Internet access numbers. Be careful about this, or you may get a big phone bill for Internet access!

If you later decide that you do want to route local calls that start with 1, take your phone off-hook and enter

#93##

If you want to tell the dialer a new local area code—for example, if you move—and you don’t want the dialer to route local calls that start with 1, use the #93## command first, and then use the #94 <local area code>## command detailed above for your new area code.

(Note: Entering #93## will also reset any other special routing commands you may have entered. These other commands are detailed in the Routing Commands

section below.)
