The Hookflash Function
When you initiate the hookflash function, it automatically lets you:
• Speed up the connection after you dial a phone number.
• Answer an incoming call that occurs when you’re dialing a phone number.
• Use special (supplementary) cellular services which may be available in your cellular service area.
How to Use the Hookflash Function
Depending on your phone, there are two ways to initiate the Hookflash function:
• Press the dedicated “HOOKFLASH” or “FLASH” key on your telephone.
• Press the hang-up or switch-hook mechanism on your phone once quickly (approximately 1/2 second).

the option of responding to the second call while putting the first call on hold. You can also disable
the call waiting option during a particular call. Contact your service provider to activate Call Waiting.
Three-Way Calling
Three-Way Calling enables you to set up a three-way conversation with two other different-num-
bered users. Contact your service provider to activate Three-Way Calling.
Call Forwarding
Call Forwarding enables you to forward all your incoming calls to another phone number, even if
your telephone is turned off. You can continue to make calls from your telephone when Call
Forwarding is activated. Contact your service provider to activate Call Forwarding.
Caller ID
Caller ID notifies you who is calling by displaying the caller's number on the telephone's display
when an incoming call comes through with a ring. This feature is available only with a telephone that
has an LCD display on it. Contact your service provider to activate Caller ID.
Voice Mail Service
Voice Mail capability allows the terminal to receive voice mail messages. Contact your service
provider to activate Voice Mail Service.
DIGITAL DATA SERVICE
The SX4e features a DB-9 digital computer fax/data port for connection to a personal computer (PC)
-

. When connected to a PC, the SX4e’s PC interface is capable of sending and receiv-
ing digital fax and data transmissions, sending and receiving e-mail communications, and browsing
the Internet. (Data speeds may vary depending upon your cellular network.)
PC Data Connection
A data cable -

count the number of PIN connections in the serial port of your PC (see below). If there are 9 PIN con-
nections in the PC serial port, a DB-9 (female) to DB-9 (male) cable is required. If there are 25 PIN
connections in the PC serial port, a DB-25 (female) to DB-9 (male) cable is required -
See Figure 9.
