Data and fax software setup
[ 34 ]

You should only have to make this modification once; the modem configuration is usually saved as a part of your data or fax
program settings. Please refer to the documentation or online help files for your data program for more information.
Prearrange data and fax call settings from phone menu options
Your phone contains a menu option that should be used to configure your phone for inbound data and fax calls. This option uses
the phone menu to prearrange inbound data and fax calls, rather than entering customized modem initialization strings into your
data or fax software.
1 From the Start screen, press Menu 4-1-8-1 (Settings > Call settings > Data/fax calls > Incoming data/fax call).
2 Scroll to highlight the desired type of inbound call (Data calls only, Fax calls only).
3 Press Select to confirm your choice.
4 Press to return to the Start screen.
Phone display
When the software has sent the proper command to your phone, the phone displays a message indicating it is ready for the
incoming data or fax call.
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 power off and back on to restore normal voice call reception. However, it is still possible to place calls
with the phone and PC connected while in prearranged data/fax call mode.
Notes about data and fax calls
• Do not terminate digital data or fax calls by pressing the key. This action may cause your data or fax application to
lock up temporarily and could cause loss of data. Use your data or fax software to terminate data or fax calls.
• Data or fax calls cannot be initiated using your phone keypad. All calls must be initiated using the data or fax software.
• Any touch tones (DTMF tones) needed for calling cards, special long-distance access numbers, etc. must be programmed into
the dialing string.
