Preliminary
Tel-Lynx examines only the first letter of the number type, ignores case, and
does not require a closing parenthesis or a space before the opening
parenthesis. However, no spaces may appear after the opening parenthesis for
the remainder of the name. So the above example could be entered as:
John Smith(w
Tel-Lynx recognizes the following number types within the parentheses:
Business, Fax, Home, Mobile or Cell, and Work.
If your mobile phone can add a note to a given contact, you can set Tel-Lynx's
contact attributes by adding a note (case insensitive). Each contact attribute must
start with a plus '+' and must appear in a separate line in the first lines of the
note. Any line without a valid attribute terminates Tel-Lynx's attribute search. If
an attribute is not specified in the note, it is not changed in Tel-Lynx's phone
book when the contact is imported. The following is a list of attributes that can be
set in this way. Enter the plus '+' followed by the attribute (e.g., Business),
followed by one of the attributes inside brackets (e.g., =Ask). The attributes
inside the brackets are optional.
+Business{=Ask}
If this attribute is present, all phone numbers for this contact will be marked as
business numbers (i.e., the number of a business, not the work number of an
individual contact) in Tel-Lynx, regardless of how they are marked on the mobile
phone. If the value is set to 'Ask', callers from this number will be asked their
name every time they call in; otherwise they will not be asked their name.
The 'Business' phone number type is not specified in the vCard standard, but
many phones support it through a custom or a "Company" phone type. If the
phone type on the mobile phone starts with "Company" or "Business", Tel-Lynx
will assume it is a business phone type.
It is good practice to set the '+Business' attribute for a "Business" contact since a
"Business" contact should only have business numbers assigned to it.
For example, to mark all phone numbers for this contact "business", and to have
Tel-Lynx ask all callers to say their name: +Business=Ask
+Ext={
}{XXXX}
+
Sets the extension for the contact. The extension (represented by 'XXXX') can be
up to 6 digits in length. If the extension is preceded by '
', the contact's home or
+
work phone number is a
local extension
(on the same PBX as Tel- Lynx). If only
the '
' is present, the last digits of the home or work phone are used as the local
+
extension. If a work number is present, the extension is applied to the work
number. Otherwise, the extension is applied to the home number (if present).
For example, to set a local extension: +Ext=
1234
