appears in the display. Your
phone is now configured to a specific type for your
next incoming call.
Note! The NextCallType setting will be reset to Voice call
after every incoming call. If you plan to receive several
data calls, reset the feature after you complete each call.
Making Data and Fax Calls
When your phone and computer are properly set up,
your phone will go into Data/Fax profile as soon as your
fax or file transfer software is started. You are then ready
to send a fax, or initiate data calls, as with any other
modem.
Review the instructions from your mobile service pro-
vider that describe the procedures and rules for making
and receiving data calls in your area.
Note! Your phone will remain in Data/Fax profile until your
phone cable is disconnected.
Note! To avoid unnecessary airtime charges, terminate your
data calls as soon as you have finished transferring files
by pressing the
NO
key. Some software can be set to do
this automatically.
Making Voice Calls While Connected to Your Computer
You can originate voice calls while your phone is in
Data/Fax profile and you are not on a data call. You can
receive voice calls if the
NextCallType is set to Voice
Call.
Your Ericsson mobile phone enables you to initiate voice
calls from Windows applications when connected to the
Ericsson Voice Call Dialer. This is particularly useful if
you have contact cards with phone numbers in a contact
management application. You can open a contact card,
click on the phone icon, and originate a call using your
Ericsson mobile phone. Then you simply pick up your
mobile phone and continue the call. The Ericsson Voice
Call Dialer is compatible with most contact manager
software packages. Refer to the “Manual Installation of
Your Modem Driver” or “Voice Call Dialer” section at
the end of this chapter for help with installing this driver
for some operating systems.
Disconnecting
Disconnect your Ericsson mobile phone from your com-
puter by disconnecting the cable from your phone and
the serial port from your computer. When your fax pro-
gram is stopped or when your interface cable is discon-
nected, your phone will exit Data/Fax profile and return
to the previously selected profile.

Rapid or Travel Charger

travel charger during data operation, do the following:

Book Manager Accessory Kit into your phone.
