Setting Up the Dialer as a Toll Restrictor
In this section we tell you how to set up your dialer as a toll restrictor. If you don't want to do this, please go to Settings on page 12.
Setting up the dialer as a toll restrictor prevents people from making toll calls on your line. You can define which toll calls are restricted. Some of the possible call types you can restrict are:
•All toll calls
•All international toll calls
•All toll calls to a particular country
•All domestic toll calls
•All calls to
•Calls to particular destinations
If you want to restrict all calls other than hotline calls, please see the section Universal Call Blocking under Hotline Security on pages 5 & 6.
To set up the dialer as a toll restrictor, you will have to do four things. They are:
•Tell the dialer how many digits there are in a domestic toll call
•Tell the dialer what the domestic toll prefix is
•Tell the dialer what the international toll prefix is
•Program numbers to restrict
You may optionally allow some numbers within a restricted area. For example, you may restrict all calls to a particular country, except for the phone number of a relative who lives in that country.
Note: The domestic toll call length and prefix, and the international prefix, are set to the North American standards by default. So in North America, if you don't change these defaults, you just have to program the numbers you want to restrict.
