Notes about data calls
• Avoid terminating a call by pressing your phone’s key. This action may cause your data application to lock up
temporarily and could cause loss of data.
• Data calls cannot be initiated using your phone’s keypad. All data calls must be initiated using the data software.
• Any touch tones (DTMF tones) needed for calling cards, special long-distance access numbers, etc. must be programmed into
the dialing string.
• OTHER DATA APPLICATIONS
There are several other types of telecommunications applications that can be used with your Nokia phone and your computer. Some
of these include:
• Terminal Programs - used
to connect to BBS services (bulletin board system) and mainframe or mini-mainframe
computers. Quarterdeck’s Procomm Plus, Microsoft HyperTerminal, Microsoft Works (Communications Module), R-Link,
and P-Term are just a few examples of this type of program.
• Remote Administration - used to remotely access your home or office computer for file sharing or remote control.
Symantec’s PCAnywhere, McAfee’s Remote Desktop and Reach Out, Farallon’s Timbuktu, Claris’ Apple Remote Access, and
Attachmate’s EXTRA! are a few examples of this type of program.
• On-line Services - used to access the Internet, or discussion and information forums within the service. On-line services
provide their own proprietary software interface for accessing their service. America Online
,
CompuServe
,
MSN (Microsoft
Network)
,
and
Prodigy
are just a few on-line service providers that use their own proprietary software.

applications or services.
