to the MENU. Each dialing file will hold up to
100,000 phone numbers.
To enter numbers within your default (local)
area code (see 4 Select File), simply enter the
number just like you would dial it on a phone on that
line, then press #; i.e. 786-1234 would be entered as
follows:
7 8 6 1 2 3 4 #
To enter other local area code numbers (see 4
Select File), enter the area code, phone number then
#; i.e. 916-786-1234 would be entered as follows:
9 1 6 7 8 6 1 2 3 4 #
Full long distance numbers, like 1-916-786-
1234, would be entered as follows:
1 9 1 6 7 8 6 1 2 3 4 #
If you just enter a seven digit number, the
system will add the default area code and long
distance digit to complete the number; but, during
dialing, these will be automatically removed.
Likewise, if you enter a local area code number, the
system will add the long distance digit; but, it will
remove the digit when it dials the number.
• Chaining Entries
Chaining entries allows you to use special
codes at the beginning of a phone number. You can
chain as many entries together as you need to. If the
last file entry is a chained entry, the system will not
allow you to exit NUMBER ENTRY mode; you
have to enter a regular number to exit. To chain an
entry to the next one, enter a * as the last character
in the entry string. If the entry is already 16 digits
long, pressing * will save it and make it a chained
entry.
Special Codes
Special Codes make the system perform
different functions before dialing a normal phone
number. Special codes MUST have their own entry,
they cannot be part of a telephone number. The
following is a list of the special codes the BA-1000
allows:
*00 – Dial the next touch tone digit for 5
seconds.
*01 to 09 – Pause for 1 to 9 seconds.
*1 – Wait for return dial tone.
*2 – Wait for 5 seconds of silence.
*3 – Dial a touch tone *.
*4 – Dial a touch tone #
*5 – Dial the rest of the phone number string as
touch tones.

new number. When you press #, the new number

press #; or you can press any digit to clear the
display, then enter a new 4 digit end suffix (no *’s
allowed), followed by #. The end suffix is the last
four digits in the phone number that you don’t want
to go past. Once this is entered, the system will
show the following:
