Dialling
When using special computer services, such as alternate long
distance carriers, credit card calls, or bank-by-phone, you
must dial the telephone number of the service and wait for the
computer to answer before continuing. The length of time
before the computer answers can vary, so using a pre-
programmed pause after a service number is not advised.
However, you can store your ID number, for example, in one
memory location, and the rest of the information, such as your
card number, in another memory location.
Dial the phone number of the special service first. Then, when
the service answers, dial the rest of the information, such as a
long-distance number. We call this procedure Chain Dialling.
1 Lift the handset and place a call to the service.
2 Press a One-Touch button holding the
additional information, when the computer
answers.
•Speed Dial and Group numbers cannot be used for
Chain Dialling.
