Customizing your Sony CLIÉ Handheld (Preferences)
74
Changing the Network preferences
Adding telephone settings
When you select the
Phone
field, your CLIÉ handheld opens a dialog box in
which you define the telephone number you use to connect with your ISP or
dial-in server. In addition, you can also define a prefix, disable Call Waiting,
and give special instructions for using a calling card.
Note
The
Phone Setup
dialog box works correctly for
AT&T
and Sprint long-
distance services. However, because MCI works differently, MCI customers
need to put the calling card number in the
Phone #
field and the phone number
in the
Use calling card
field.
1
On the Network Preferences screen, tap the Phone field.
The
Phone Setup
screen is displayed.
2
Enter the phone number for your ISP or dial-in server in the
Phone # field.
3
Change the following settings if necessary:
1
Enter the telephone number used to access the modem.
If necessary, enter a dial prefix (such as “9”) to access an outside line,
and tap the
Dial prefix
check box. You can enter a comma in the field
to introduce a “pause” in the dialing sequence. Each comma equals a
two second pause.
2
If the phone line you are using for your CLIÉ handheld has Call
Waiting, select the
Disable call waiting
check box to avoid an
interruption during a modem HotSync
®
operation.
Note
Each telephone company assigns a code to disable Call Waiting. Contact your
local telephone company for the code that is appropriate for you.
