General Toshiba eBridge question.

[Baphomet]

When you are adding contacts to the address book using TopAccess, and you need to put a pause within the phone number (after the number and before a long-distance authorization code), how do you do it?

At the walk up panel you would press the monitor/pause button and the pause is represented with a dash "-" but if you put a dash in the number in TopAccess then the fax doesn't recognize it as a pause and just ignores it. I have tried commas, but no luck either.

Thanks if you can answer this.

Hmm... the topaccess manual says that a "-" is supposed to add a "three second pause." I'm looking at the eb2a-topaccessguidev00.pdf file under e283 in techtogo. Might be different for ebridge1? It's on PDF page 93. Hope this helps...

Ran into this once and luckily they didn't have many numbers. So I did it from the panel. I would like to know the TA way also.

I think you are right that there is a difference. Here is the excerpt you are talking about for the eBridge2:


Now look at the equivalent page from the eBridge1 manual:



Notice how the line about adding a dash is missing. It WAS an eBridge1 one machine I was working with, so I believe you might have answered my question. Thanks
