Pause Digit Entry
When storing a number, you can program your phone so that it will not
only dial a number but also pause and enter another series of numbers
such as a personal identification number (PIN) or password. This
feature is particularly useful for automated services such as voice mail
and banking systems.
Here’s how it works! Let’s say you have a company voice mail account
that you frequently check while traveling. And, to access that account
you must do the following:
• Dial your work number;
• Press # while the voice mail greeting is being played; and
• Enter your PIN to access your messages.
You can program your i700plus phone to enter all of the above
information for you. All you have to do is separate each entry with a
pause. If you were to program your phone to automatically input the
above information, the stored data would look like this
17035551234P#P1234. In this example, the first eleven digits represent
the number that must be dialed to access your voice mail. The P
represents a 3 second pause. The # interrupts your greeting. The second
P represents another 3 second pause. The last four digits represent your
PIN.
You can use this feature not only to enter PINs and passwords but also
to have the phone automatically select menu options (i.e., press 1 to hear
messages).
To create a three-second pause follow the steps below:
NOTE: You can enter up to 20 numbers/characters in a single entry,
stored or dialed.
NOTE: If you use a system that will not let you enter an option until
the automated message has played in its entirety, you can pro-
gram your phone to pause for more than 3 seconds. For exam-
ple, performing the above step twice will program two pauses
and cause your phone to wait 6 seconds before entering the
next set of numbers.
Press and hold * for two seconds. The pause symbol (P) will
appear on the display screen.
