Calling Outside My Home Area Code
• Any calls outside your Home Area Code LOCAL calls? – Select either None or
Only Calls to These Area+Office Codes.
• Local Area+Office Codes – This entry is only presented when you chose Only Call
to These Area+Office Codes in the previous step. The pull down listing shows the
codes (area code plus prefix codes) that are considered to be a local call from your
location. Click the C button to display the "Change Dial Rules" screen.
• To Add Local Area+Prefix Codes – Enter the six digit area+prefix code and
click Add. The wild card character ‘#’ can be entered at the end of a prefix
code entry to represent a range of codes. For example, 602### would represent
all prefix codes in area code 602.
• To Delete Local Area+Prefix Codes – Highlight a prefix entry and click Delete
button. The delete button removes the entire entry from the list, thus if the
entry has a wild card, then it removes all codes represented by the wild card.
• To Delete a Specific Area+Prefix Code – To delete one prefix code that is part
of a range of codes entered using a wild card character, enter the prefix code to
be considered not local in the Long Distance box and click Add.
• For Long Distance Calls add +1 – Check the box when you need to have a leading
one ("1") added when making long distance calls outside your home area code.
Test a Phone Number
Dialing plans can become complex. Use these boxes to enter different telephone
numbers and check to see the number that will be dialed. The dialed number should
be identical to what you need to dial when using your phone.
