Setting Up the Dialer as a Hotline
If you do not want to program a hotline number but do want to restrict access to toll numbers, see Setting Up the Dialer as a Toll Restrictor (page 9). Otherwise please read below about programming a hotline number and trigger. If you want to, you can also set the dialer up as a Toll Restrictor after you have programmed a hotline number.
Programming a Hotline Phone Number
This section tells you how to program the number you want the dialer to dial when a trigger occurs.
To program a hotline phone number, do the following.
1.Take your phone
2.Press # 0 #
3.Enter the hotline phone number
4.Press # #
5.Listen for two confirmation beeps
6.Place your phone
If you wish, you can program a complicated hotline number, consisting of a sequence of numbers separated by pauses and other items. See the section Advanced Hotline Number Programming to learn how to do this.
Programming a Trigger
Before you can use your dialer, you will need to select the trigger that will tell the dialer when to dial the hotline number you programmed.
The available triggers are:
•N seconds after coming off-hook, where N is from 1 to 9.
•Dial tone. This is good for situations where you want someone to be able to dial without dialer involvement by dialing as soon as the dialer detects dial tone after someone comes
•Someone presses the first digit of the hotline phone number for a long time (more than .6 seconds). This is good for situations where you want someone to be able to dial normally most of the time, and to be able to trigger the dialer by holding down the button of the first tone dialed. This only works for phones that generate a tone during the whole time you're pushing the button.
•On
