Prefix all Voice calls with ‘1’
When travelling, dialing your phone book
entries may not work without prefixing
the number with the North American long
distance code "1". By setting this option,
the PCS Connection Card will
automatically insert a “1” before dialing
any voice call (data connections are not
affected).
The “1” will not be prefixed to numbers
that start with “1” or an asterisk “*”.
Note:
This includes numbers you enter
manually so it will impact local dialing as
well.
The "1" does not appear on the display.
Tone Length
DTMF (Dual Tone Multi-Frequency) is the
system used by touch tone phones under
which a specific frequency or tone is
assigned to each key. There is a standard
length for these tones. However, some
voicemail systems require a shorter or
longer than normal length tone.
This field allows you to set the card to use
a shorter or longer tone for systems that
require it. The “coninuous” setting will
send the tone until the key or mouse
button is released. The network may limit
the duration of tones over the air.
The default tone length is set to
normal
.
Level
This field allows you to adjust the volume
of the beep that occurs when you click
buttons on the keypad.
