Synchronizing Phonebook Entries - NEC 535 Manual

Synchronizing Phonebook Entries

The following phonebook fields are synchronized depending upon the server capabilities:
Name
l
Home phone
l
Work phone
l
Mobile phone
l
Fax
l
Email 1 and 2 (depending on server capability)
l
Info 1 and 2 (depending on server capability)
l
The following limitations apply to phonebook synchronization:
The NEC 535M wireless phone truncates or shortens an entry to the allowed number of
l
characters if it exceeds the length supported in the phonebook. The Name field allows 30
characters for the name and the Number field allows 40 characters for the phone number.
The NEC 535M wireless phone does not have any checking for Email addresses. Any
l
alphanumeric string may be entered as an Email address. The wireless phone uses ";" as a
delimiter and truncates the Email address if it exceeds the length allowed in the phonebook.
Only the entries from the "Phone" phonebook are synchronized. The entries stored in the
l
SIM phonebook are not synchronized.
Alphanumeric phone numbers are converted to numeric equivalent when synchronized to
l
the wireless phone. For example, 1-800-Flowers is stored as 18003569377. The wireless
phone can only store numeric entries without any spaces.
By default, a name entered in the phone is treated as the last name only. If you enter a
l
comma (,) within the name, the word before the comma is treated as the last name and the
word after the comma is treated as the first name. During synchronization, an entry of "Doe,
John" treats "Doe" as the last name and "John" as the first name. An entry of "John Doe"
without a comma treats "John" as the last name and "Doe" as the first name.
Contacts with only a first name display on the NEC 535M wireless phone with a space
l
(masking the comma character) followed by the first name. These entries are not sorted
alphabetically and appear at the end of the phonebook list.
Since the synchronization software allows more fields for the name such as middle name, last
name, first name, prefix (Mr., Mrs., Ms, etc), suffix (Senior, Junior, III, etc), the wireless phone
preserves the format by adding ";" as required. You may see some entries in the format: Last
Name, First Name; Middle Name; Prefix; Suffix.
