Setting Up the Dialer as a Toll
Restrictor

In this section we tell you how to set up your dialer as a toll restrictor. If you

don't want to do this, please go to Settings on page 12.
Setting up the dialer as a toll restrictor prevents people from making toll calls
on your line. You can define which toll calls are restricted. Some of the
possible call types you can restrict are:

All toll calls

All international toll calls

All toll calls to a particular country

All domestic toll calls

All calls to fee-based 900 numbers

Calls to particular destinations

If you want to restrict all calls other than hotline calls, please see the section

Universal Call Blocking under Hotline Security on pages 5 & 6.
To set up the dialer as a toll restrictor, you will have to do four things. They
are:

Tell the dialer how many digits there are in a domestic toll call

Tell the dialer what the domestic toll prefix is

Tell the dialer what the international toll prefix is

Program numbers to restrict

You may optionally allow some numbers within a restricted area. For

example, you may restrict all calls to a particular country, except for the

phone number of a relative who lives in that country.

Note: The domestic toll call length and prefix, and the international

prefix, are set to the North American standards by default. So in North

America, if you don't change these defaults, you just have to program

the numbers you want to restrict.
