4. Type the telephone number in the second space on the line. The modem
ignores spaces and hyphens in the telephone number. Use the following
special symbols to specify how you want the modem to dial the telephone
number:
l comma(,): causes the modem to pause for two seconds before con-
tinuing to dial.
l W: causes the modem to wait for a second dial tone before continu-
ing to dial.
Use this symbol if you have to dial 9, wait for a dial tone, and then
dial the telephone number to place a call outside your house tele-
phone system.
l P: indicates pulse dialing (with a dial), instead of tone (with a key-
pad).
For example, if you are using a pulse telephone with your modem,
and your house telephone system requires dialing a 9 before placing
an outside call, you would enter the telephone number as:
P9W555,333,4444
NOTE See your modem documentation for more details on special dialing com-
mands.
