Voice Operations
This section provides information on how to use the 8400B Plus Data Module
for voice dialing.
NOTE:
The host PBX must be administered to support voice and data calls.
Using the 8400B Plus for Voice Dialing
The 8400B Plus Data Module is equipped with a voice-dial feature that allows
you to place voice telephone calls from the attached terminal device. To place a
voice call, just tell the 8400B Plus Data Module to use pulse dialing by including
the P dial modifier. (For data calls, tell it to use tone dialing by including the T
dial modifier.) If you fail to specify the type of dialing to be used for a call, a data
call will be made.
If you have a speakerphone, the 8400B Plus Data Module will normally turn it
on when a voice call is being dialed. You may option the 8400B Plus Data
Module to inhibit the speakerphone or delay activating it until after dialing is
complete by setting the appropriate installation options. For more information on
installation options, see Chapter 2.
If your telephone does not have a speakerphone, you may lift the handset at
any time before, during, or after the call is dialed.
Voice calls can be originated from the PC, but you must use the telephone to
hang up a call.
Dialing Instructions
When a voice call is made using the PC, the telephone number should be given
to the 8400B Plus Data Module in a single AT dial command as indicated in the
example below.
