This type of call only occurs if your system supports call waiting. ❑ 3-Way Calling: The second party you dialed during a three-way call. This type of call only occurs if your service provider supports three-way calling. ❑ Emergency: All emergency calls, like 911.
■ Speed dialing (see page 48). With speed dialing, you enter the memory location of the number (assigned in your phone book) and press the Send/Talk key . ■ Touch dialing (see page 48).

You can likewise transition clear connections to secure ones.
Phone Book Your phone contains an electronic phone book in which you can save phone numbers, both clear and secure, with an associated name. There are 99 “memory locations” in the phone book or slots for this information. Each memory location holds up to 32 digits: 10 characters for a clear number, 10 characters for a secure number, and 12 characters for a name.
implemented, you may or may not know the secure number but it is embedded in your phone. When placing a secure call, your phone checks your phone book or history list to determine if you ever made a secure connection with the party you are calling. If so, it continues to place the call. If not, it performs a checking process called “call setup” (see page 29). During this setup, it sends signals to make sure this phone is a secure phone.
