recognizing numbers when you use the Call command.

Adapt Digits

voice recognition of phone numbers.
Adaptation takes about 60 seconds.
Erases any digit adaptation you have done
and resets digit recognition to the factory
default. If you have not adapted digits, this
option is grayed out.
Sensitivity
In VSuite, Sensitivity controls the balance between rejecting too much, which
means the phone frequently does not recognize names, numbers, or commands,
and rejecting too little, which means it frequently recognizes something even if
nothing was said.
When VSuite rejects an utterance, it displays a message such as “Please
repeat…” or “No match found.” If you frequently experience these messages,
you might be able to get better recognition by adjusting the Sensitivity setting
toward Reject Less.
If you frequently experience false activations (VSuite detects a wrong match),
you might be able to get better performance by adjusting the Sensitivity setting
toward Reject More.
