Area Codes
Information
The WDCT45-A2 can dial
numbers back directly from
the Caller-ID entered into
the incoming and missed
calls lists. Most often,
Caller-ID is received with
10 digits (3-digit area code
+ 7-digit phone number)
regardless of how many
digits need to be dialed to
call that number. The most
prevalent dialing plans in
use are 7-digit (normal 7-
digit phone-number), 11-
digit (1+area-code+7-digits)
and 10-digits (area-code+7-
digit). When dialing back
from the WDCT45-A2 call lists,
the WDCT45-A2 will try to figure
out if 7, 10, or 11 digits
should be dialed. This is
accomplished by entering
area codes as settings.
There is a "Local Area
Code" and 5 "Regional
Area Code" settings
available. The area code
settings work for dialing
back numbers only when
the Caller-ID received is 10
digits. If the Caller-ID is
anything other than 10
digits, the Area Code
settings are not used to
pre-format the dialed
number.

Local Area Code (7-Digit Dialing)

first 3 digits of the Caller-ID number,
then the first 3 digits are removed
and 7 digits is displayed for dialing.
Regional Area Codes (10-Digit Dialing)
Up to 5 Regional Area Codes can be set.
• If any of the Regional Area Codes
match the first 3 digits of the Caller-
ID number, then the 10 digit number
is displayed for dialing.
• If the neither the Local Area Code
and none of the Regional Area Codes
match the first 3 digits of the 10-digit
Caller-ID, then the telephone number
is formatted as 11-digits (1+10-digit
Caller-ID number).
