I am dialing from
The I am dialing from field is used to save different sets of dialing properties. It is
used when you have a computer (such as a lap top) that you use at different
locations. The settings for the different locations can be saved under different
names in the I am dialing from field. You can then quickly change to the new
settings when you switch locations.
For example, you may have a lap top computer that you use at both the north and
south locations. If the north and south locations have different dialing requirements
(such as call waiting in the north but not in the south), you can set up two different
sets of dialing properties in the I am dialing from field. Then, when you switch
locations, you can change the dialing properties by changing the name that appears
in the I am dialing from field.
Creating a new location
When you create a new location, you are creating the name that is used to access the
new set of dialing properties. After you create the location, any changes made to
Dialing Properties dialog box are saved with this name.
To create a new location:
1. Click the New button.
A dialog box appears confirming that a new location was created.
2. Ensure the text in the I am dialing from field is highlighted.
3. Enter the name of the new location.
4. Change the other fields on the Dialing Properties dialog box to match the
dialing properties required for this location.
These fields are described later in this section.
5. Click the Apply button to store the changes with the new location.
