Phone services and your WA-700
DSL and other digital phone services
Please note that the WA-700 is designed and certified by the FCC to operate on a
standard telephone line, provided by your local telephone company. DSL, Cable, or
Digital phone service may work with the appropriate in-line filters. If you have questions
or problems using one of those types of phone services, contact that specific phon e
service provider for assistance.
Note:
The
WA-700 dials out using touch tone dialing only.
During power failures, many alternative phone services such as DSL, Digital and Cable
provided phone service DO NOT WORK. Those phone services require that power be on at
the location for the phone to operate. The WA-700 will NOT be able to call out if the
power is out when using these phone services. If you have a standard telephone line, power
is supplied to this line by the telephone company and is usually not affected when power
goes out at the monitored location.
Calls using a calling card or pager phone number
When using a calling card or pager system, you often need to include pauses to ensure that
enough time is allotted to dial the phone number. To get a sense for how much time that may
be needed, call the preferred calling card or pager to gain an understanding of how that
system works. Often times, the calling card or pager system, may announce ―enter your
calling card number followed by the pound (
#
) key.‖ Make sure to include all necessary key
presses as you enter the number. Also, while the card or pager system is talking
(number of
seconds)
, you will need to enter pauses for that time to allow the system adequate time to
accept your telephone number.
