Using a calling card
The Use calling card field enables you to use your calling card when dialing your
wireless service provider or Intranet server. Keep in mind that there is usually a
delay before you enter your calling card number. When you define your calling
card number, you need to add commas at the beginning to compensate for this
delay. Each comma delays transmission of your calling card number for two
seconds.
To use a calling card:
1. Tap the Use calling card check box to select it.
2. Enter your calling card number on the Use calling card line.
NOTE
The Phone Setup dialog box works correctly for AT&T and Sprint long-
distance services. However, because MCI works differently, MCI customers
need to put the calling card number in the Phone # field and the phone number
in the Use calling card field.
TIP
It’s a good idea to add at least three commas before your calling card
number to compensate for the cue delay.
3. Press Function + Enter
