Placing a Data Call
Keep in mind: You will not be able to place a data or fax call
through your phone’s keypad, using Last 10 Dialed, or with
Caller ID. All data and fax calls must be placed through your
computer.
Your phone will automatically redial 3 times (or until it is
successful). If the call is not connected after 3 tries, the display
will return to idle.
Ending a Data Call
Keep in mind: Some of the normal ways to end a call, like
pressing the Smart Button or closing the phone, will not work.
Keep in mind: If you set pre-arrangement before the call, your
phone will remain in pre-arranged status when the data call is
ended. You will see either
Fax Ready or Data Ready . See page
120 for more information.
Note: Disconnecting the cable or turning OFF your phone will
also end a data call, but they may disrupt your computer. See
page 131 for more information.
1. Connect Make sure the cable is connected properly.
2. Place
Call Open the application on your computer, like a
fax or dial-up application, and place the call
through the application on your computer.
The phone will display the number your com-
puter is calling (or the name if in the internal
Phone Book). You will see: Connecting.
Close Always close the connection through the
application on your computer. See the soft-
ware user’s guide for more help. Your phone
will return to the idle display.
