2 When you receive a call, Data call or Fax call appears and an alert sounds.
3 Terminate the data call from your data software; fax calls typically terminate
automatically.
Note: Avoid terminating a call by pressing the End key . This may cause your data or
fax application to temporarily lock up and could cause loss of data.
• MANUAL SELECTION OF INCOMING DATA/FAX CALLS
Certain service providers require that you preset your phone to receive the incoming
data or fax call, rather than having the phone automatically detect the call type.
Note: Check with your service provider to see if “pre-arrangement” of data and/or fax
calls is necessary.
Most popular data and fax programs allow you to send additional initialization
commands to the modem when the program is launched, or when the modem is
instructed to receive a call. You will need to modify your phone’s modem
configuration in the data or fax software so that it sends the following special
initialization string to the modem.
TO PRESET YOUR PHONE TO RECEIVE A DATA CALL:
AT+CSP=1
TO PRESET YOUR PHONE TO RECEIVE A FAX CALL:
AT+CSP=2
You should only have to make this modification once; these settings typically are
saved as a part of your data or fax program’s settings. Please refer to the
documentation or online help files for your data or fax application when modifying
your modem’s initialization string.
When the software has sent the proper command to your phone, the phone will
display Data reception only or Fax reception only momentarily, along with either a
d or f status indicator at the start screen.
Once your phone is preset for either data or fax reception, you cannot receive
incoming voice calls. You must either remove the data cable or turn the phone’s
power off and back on to restore normal voice call reception.
• GETTING STARTED
Make sure your phone is connected to your computer via the optional RS-232C Data
Cable and your computer recognizes the new hardware.
See the installation and configuration instructions supplied with RS-232C cable for
more information.
• CONFIGURING YOUR DATA OR FAX SOFTWARE
Once properly connected and configured, your PC will recognize your phone as an
external fax/modem. However, your fax or data software may already be configured
to use the existing PCMCIA or internal modem.
Before you can use your phone to send and receive data or faxes, you must
reconfigure your fax or data software so that it uses your phone rather than your
existing modem. You may consider creating a separate set of dialing properties to
use when your phone is connected, rather than changing any existing settings.
Please refer to the documentation or online help files for your data or fax application
when creating new dialing configurations, or modifying existing settings.
• TO START A DATA OR FAX CALL
Note: The restrict calls feature may affect any data/fax calls you attempt.
If you experience problems, check your call restrictions.
1 Initiate a data or fax call using your data or fax software configured for your phone.
2 When trying to connect to the network, the phone displays Connecting... Once
connected, the text Data call (or Fax call) remains on the display for the duration
of the data or fax call.
3 Terminate the data call from your data software; fax calls typically terminate
automatically.
Note: Avoid terminating a call by pressing the End key. This may cause your data or
fax application to temporarily lock up and could cause loss of data.
Note: Data or fax calls cannot be initiated using your phone’s keypad. All data and
fax calls must be initiated using the data or fax software.
Note: Any touch tones (DTMF tones) needed for calling cards, special long-distance
access numbers, etc. must be programmed into the dialing string.
• TO RECEIVE A DATA OR FAX CALL
Your phone must be connected to your PC via the data cable.
1 The appropriate data or fax software must be running. Consider setting your data
or fax software to automatically answer incoming calls so you can receive them
while away from your PC.
