Landline dial through (‘L’ models only)
This feature allows an incoming call
received via the mobile connec-
tion to make a new outgoing call
using the landline connection.
This ability provides great cost
savings when you need to
regularly dial landline numbers
from your mobile. Cost savings
will be particularly effective if your
mobile phone and the Burnside unit
are both fitted with paired SIMs (which incur
no charges for calls made between them).
In use, when the Burnside unit answers the incoming call it will either
sound a beep to indicate that a PIN code is required or will give a
dial tone, depending on the selected mode.
Controlling this feature using phone button presses
The unit will respond according to how the options have been set:
•
Show status
- dial
0#9610
- Indicates the current setting.
•
Set to match phonebook
- dial
0#9620
- When set, only incoming
calls from phone numbers registered within the phonebook will be
permitted to make outgoing dial through calls.
•
Set to use PIN
- dial
0#9630
- When set, an incoming caller who
wants to make a dial through call, will need to enter a valid PIN
code (the
) followed by #. If the PIN is
correct the landline dialtone will be heard, otherwise the call will end.
•
Set to allow any caller
- dial
0#9640
- When set, any incoming
caller will be permitted to make a dial through call and will be
presented with the landline dial tone.
•
Set to bar dial through
- dial
0#9650
- Disables the dial through.

The unit will normally respond
by sending an SMS message
back to the number that sent
the command. The response
is either the new status of the
unit or an error message if the
command is not recognised. If
required, you can suppress the
reply by placing a fullstop after
the PIN, e.g.
234
.
Id
will enable
dial through without replying.
Note: It is not possible to guarantee that an SMS will be delivered im-
mediately and there are rare occasions when the message will not be
sent at all.
Controlling this feature using remote text commands
• Send an SMS message to the unit, formatted as follows:
pppp
cc
The first 4 characters (
pppp
)
must be the terminal PIN
(
234
as standard,
0#51240
to change).
Immediately after the terminal PIN
(no space), include the first two
characters (
cc
) of the appropriate
command:
•
ID
ENTITY Enables dial through
only for callers who are listed
within the phonebook.
•
PI
N Enables dial through and
requires PIN entry.
•
NO
Disables the dial through
feature.
Note: The command characters
are not case sensitive.
IMPORTANT: Reliable operation of the dial through is dependant on the
quality of the connection. If the quality of the connection is poor, a wrong
number could be dialled inadvertently. If there is doubt about the quality,
use the PIN entry mode which will give a good indication that the connec-
tion is good enough to accept the PIN number. Calls originating from a
mobile phone should generally be the most reliable due to the way those
dialling tones are created by the network equipment.
