Phone/Dialing Settings
Dialing Modes This affects how Pocket Informant sends the phone number string to your phone via IR or Bluetooth. Unmodied means that the string is sent exactly as it is in the phone number eld. Numbers only means that any characters are skipped and only send numbers since some phones do not like having the parentheses or dashes sent. Parsed for my area code means that the area code is extracted from the number which is useful when dialing via DTMF. Force Area Codes If you want area codes to always show up in a phone dial, select this option. Dial Prex If you need to enter a dial prex such as 71*, you can enter that here. Long Distance Prex You can enter here the code needed for dialing long distance. It is usually 1 in the United States, for example. International Dialing Number If you have a number you have to dial rst when calling internationally such as a passcode, enter that number here. Country Codes Enter your country codes here. Area Codes Enter your area codes here. If you have multiple codes such as in Houston, enter them with a comma separating them and no spaces.
