About Call Filtering

Spb Phone Suite provides you with the ability to filter your incoming calls. You can:

- Accept all calls. No limitation for the incoming calls.
- Accept all but black list. You can edit the phone number "black list" -- these will be ignored by your phone.
- Accept white list only. You can edit the phone number “white list”. Only calls from these numbers will be accepted by your phone, all others will be ignored.
- Ignore all. All incoming calls will be ignored.

When adding numbers to the black list or the white list you can use wildcard masks. '?' stands for any digit and '*' stands for any sequence of digits or other symbols appropriate for phone numbers.

About Profiles

Profiles in Spb Phone Suite are the best way to quickly (or in some cases automatically) change the whole range of phone settings on your PDA.

For the most common situations you can customize the standard profiles, like Normal, Silent, and Loud (these are common to all mobile phones).

You can also create and customize your own profiles.

Each profile can be easily selected right from the Today plug-in without opening any menus.

Spb Phone Suite also supports profiles rules that are activated automatically in certain situations:

- Appointment Rule: This rule works according to your appointment status. In the rule settings you can specify the status and the categories in which the appointment rule will be activated. The appointment with status "busy" is used as the default rule (applied to all categories).
- Hardware Rule: This rule works according to your hardware status. In the rule settings you can select one or more of the hardware plugs choices. When the selected plug is matched, the profile using this hardware rule will be activated.
- Time Rule: This rule works according to your days and time status. In the rule settings you can select the time interval and the days in which the profile based on time rule will be activated. Note that if a day is in black it is selected, if white deselected.
- Normal Rule: This rule works according to the other rules status. The profile will automatically switch back to the "Normal" or to the selected profile when the other rules are not valid any more.

When two or more of these situations occur simultaneously, (for example, meeting + headset) then the profile rule with a higher priority is activated. You can find the list of all profiles by tapping Options->Profiles. Profiles are grouped by priority in descending order. You can change the order as well as disable or enable any profile rule from its context menu.

When selecting a profile from the Today plug-in, you can set it to activate for a specific length of time. To do so, just tap the profile selecting button on the plug-in, tap-and-hold on a desired profile and then specify a time interval from the Set to Time menu item. The selected profile will now be active for this period of time.

- Appointment Rule: This rule works according to your appointment status. In the rule settings you can specify the status and the categories in which the appointment rule will be activated. The appointment with status "busy" is used as the default rule (applied to all categories).

- Time Rule: This rule works according to your days and time status. In the rule settings you can select the time interval and the days in which the profile based on time rule will be activated. Note that if a day is in black it is selected, if white deselected.
