Insert a pause
What is a pause?
Do you frequently call an automated service number
that includes interactive voice prompts? A service
that requests passwords or steps you through menu
choices, like your bank or your voicemail?
If so, you can save a great deal of time by storing the
service number and all of the required responses into
a one-touch memory key. It takes a little patience to
set up, but once it is stored, whenever you press the
one-touch key, the phone does all of the work for you!
Automated service messages always include a few
seconds before each prompt begins. So when you
program the one-touch key, you must insert one or
more pauses to wait for each prompt to begin. After
pauses, you enter the additional numbers that the
prompt requires.
In the CSC1000 phone, a pause is three seconds
long. To insert a pause while storing a number, you
