Outgoing Calls

To initiate a call:

1.

Connect a headset to the AirCard, if one is not already
connected.

Note: If you tap the Send button
without entering a number, the
AirCard redials the last number
you dialed.

2.

Enter the number you want to dial by tapping the number
buttons on the dial pad.

3.

Tap the

Send

button.

As the call is being dialed, Watcher displays “Dialing” and the
phone number.

You can also initiate a call from the call log. The call log is
displayed when you select

Tools > Call Log

and is described on

page 63.

Incoming Calls

Note: The Options window,
displayed when you select Tools
> Options
, allows you to
customize the sound played
when you receive an incoming
call and to enable and disable
the Silent Ringer feature.

Depending on how certain features are configured, when you
receive an incoming call the following occurs:

On Handheld PCs, if Watcher is in compact view, it
switches to full view.

A sound is played, unless the Silent Ringer feature is
enabled.

If you have Caller ID, the phone number and, if available,
the name of the caller are displayed.

If the Data tab is displayed, Watcher switches the display
to the Voice tab.

Note: If an incoming call occurs
while you have a data
connection, your caller will get a
busy signal or be put through to
your voice mail box.

To answer a call:

1.

Connect the headset, if it is not already connected, and put
it on.

2.

Tap the

Send

button. (Or, if the Any-Key Answer feature is

enabled, tap any key except

End

or

.)
