11.5 Technical Reference
The following section contains additional technical information about the WiMAX
Modem features described in this chapter.
11.5.1 The Flash Key
Flashing means to press the hook for a short period of time (a few hundred
milliseconds) before releasing it. On newer telephones, there should be a "flash"
key (button) that generates the signal electronically. If the flash key is not
available, you can tap (press and immediately release) the hook by hand to
achieve the same effect. However, using the flash key is preferred since the
timing is much more precise. The WiMAX Modem may interpret manual tapping as
hanging up if the duration is too long
You can invoke all the supplementary services by using the flash key.
11.5.2 Europe Type Supplementary Phone Services
This section describes how to use supplementary phone services with the Europe
Type Call Service Mode. Commands for supplementary services are listed in the
table below.
After pressing the flash key, if you do not issue the sub-command before the
default sub-command timeout (2 seconds) expires or issue an invalid sub-
command, the current operation will be aborted.
European Call Hold allows you to put a call (A) on hold by pressing the flash key.
