Notes
•
If the active call is a CSD call, and a waiting call is received, then the ME produces a BREAK while still in
online mode, and displays
-
the +CCWA URC (as above) when the ME goes back to command mode while the waiting call is still active
and can be accepted;
-
or the ^SCWA URC (as above) when the ME goes back to command mode after the waiting call has
ended.
•
With the
command, it is possible to establish a multiparty call or to set the active voice call on hold
and then accept a waiting voice call (not possible with fax and data call). See also
•
Users should be aware that if call waiting is activated (
=1), the presentation of URCs needs to be
enabled, too (
=1).
Otherwise, on the one hand, a waiting caller would be kept waiting due to lack of BUSY signals, while, on the
other hand, the waiting call would not be indicated to the called party.
•
command offers a broad range of options according to the GSM specifications. However, when
you attempt to enable call waiting for a
for which the service is not provisioned or not supported ,
the setting will not take effect regardless of the response returned. The responses in these cases vary with
the network (for example "OK", "Operation not allowed", "Operation not supported" etc.). To make sure check
the current call waiting settings with
=2.
•
command has been implemented with the full set of
parameters according to 3GPP
TS 27.007
. For actual applicability of SS call waiting to a specific service or service group (a specific
value) please consult table A.1 of 3GPP TS 22.004
•
Despite the specifications stated in 3GPP TS 22.004
call waiting is not handled uniformly among all net-
, Annex A, provides the following specification:
"The applicability of call waiting refers to the telecommunication service of the active call and not of the waiting
call. The incoming, waiting, call may be of any kind." Nevertheless, networks do differ on the actual imple-
mentation of the service. For example, the activation of call waiting for
works to send a call waiting indication if a call "of any kind" comes in during an active fax call, but others may
(with the same settings active) indicate a waiting fax call during any kind of active call. Thus, the only reliable
way to receive or prevent a call waiting indication under any circumstances and in any network, is to activate
or deactivate call waiting for all tele- and bearer services (
255).
