ANUAL
Variable Dial Time (Auto SEND Delay) Option
When you place a call, your
Phonecell SX3
automatically sends the phone
number over the cellular network after you dial the last digit – just like a landline
phone. However, to make sure you have enough time to dial the last digit, a 3-
second
Auto SEND Delay
is programmed into the unit. This delay also affects
Special Functions such as
Call Forwarding (see Special Cellular Services below)
.
You can set the Auto SEND Delay from
2
to
20
seconds using an ordinary tone-
dial
(DTMF)
phone, which is sometimes referred to as a POTS
(Plain Old
Telephone Service)
phone. Note: you cannot change the delay while you’re
making a call.
How To Adjust the Auto SEND Delay -
Pick up the telephone handset and
listen for dial tone. Then, enter the User-Programming mode by pressing:
#
*
0
*
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 #
The dial tone should change to a steady “Programming” tone and the LED
indicator on the front of your Phonecell should blink alternately RED and
GREEN to indicate that you’re now in the Programming mode.
Next, press:
#
*
11
*
<Auto SEND Delay> #
The
< >
brackets represent the Auto SEND Delay. You must enter a value
between
2
and
20
seconds.
(For instance, to enter a 5-second delay, press:
#
*
11
*
5 #.)
If you enter the delay incorrectly, you’ll hear three short beeps followed by the
programming tone. That’s your cue to re-try the steps above. If correct, you’ll
hear the programming tone again. Hang up. Your Phonecell is ready for use.
Special Cellular Services
Your
Phonecell SX3
is compatible with a variety of special services such as call
forwarding, call waiting, and more. Depending upon your cellular provider, these
services may be available on a subscription basis. However, certain dialing
sequences must be entered, which vary among service providers.
Please consult
your service provider for the dialing instructions for your system.
Call Forwarding –
After you hear a dial tone on your telephone handset, dial the
code required by the service provider, wait for a minimum of
3
seconds or press
the HOOKFLASH.* Your Phonecell automatically transmits the call-forwarding
information. Listen for the cellular carrier response. Then, hang up the phone. If
you don’t wait for the response, your forwarding request may not be fulfilled.
*You can set this delay for 2 to 20 seconds. See the Variable Dial Time section
above. NOTE: please wait 1 second longer than the delay programmed (i.e. for
the 3-second delay mentioned above, wait 4 seconds).
Call Waiting
– If your cellular provider requires codes to be entered involving dig-
its
1-9
,
*
, and
#
to answer a waiting call, the Out-of-Band Signaling option must be
enabled.
See the Data After SEND option on page 17.
