Note: The transfer operation can be made only if
you have one held call and one active call;
all calls are voice calls (fax or data calls
cannot be transferred); and none of the
calls is a conference call.
There are two ways to transfer voice calls from
the phone interface:
1. Press 4 followed by , or
2. Press and hold the Menu key for a second.
Choose the Transfer option in the menu and
press OK, or press Quit to cancel.
Calls can also be transferred from the communi-
cator interface. When you have one call on hold
and another call active, press Call commands
and choose the option Transfer call. Press OK.
Answering a waiting call
Call waiting is a network service which must be
activated before you can use it (see ”Telephone
settings” on page 4-6).
When Call waiting is active, and you receive a
new call while you already have an active voice
call, you will see a note informing you of this.
A waiting call is answered, like any call, by se-
lecting the waiting call and pressing Answer. The
previous call will be put on hold.
Sending DTMF tones
The Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) tones al-
low you to communicate with voice mailboxes,
computerised telephony systems, etc. Besides the
numbers 0 - 9, you can also use the characters p,
w, * and # (for information on the functions of
these characters, see chapter 3 "Contacts: Con-
tact cards - Storing DTMF tones" on page 3-3).
To send a DTMF sequence when you have an ac-
tive call:
1 Key the digits from the communicator inter-
face keyboard. Each keystroke will generate a
DTMF tone which will be transmitted directly.
Or alternatively,
1 Press Send DTMF. A list of stored DTMF se-
quences is shown (for information on how to
store DTMF sequences, see chapter 3 "Con-
tacts: Contact cards - Storing DTMF tones" on
page 3-3).
2 Select a DTMF sequence. You can edit the se-
quence, or, if there are no stored sequences,
you can enter the DTMF string manually into
the field.
3 Press Send to send the DTMF sequence shown
in the input field, at the bottom of the display.
Note: You cannot access the DTMF view during
a conference call. However, you can send
DTMF tones during a conference call by
entering the digits from the keyboard.
Alternating calls
Alternating calls can be made to a fax box, for
example: you initiate the call as a voice call, but
it changes into a fax call when your fax box
starts to send you your faxes.
To make alternating calls you need to add a spe-
cial Tel/Fax field to the contact cards of the re-
cipients of your alternating calls (see chapter 3
"Contacts: Contact cards - Customising contact
cards" on page 3-2).
You can also change the mode of the call from
voice to fax manually by pressing Change mode.
Alternating calls cannot be put on hold or incor-
porated into a conference call.
Incoming faxes, short messages and data
Faxes, short messages and incoming data are re-
ceived automatically, provided that the phone
