Tone Signaling
You may have noticed that when you dial a number at your console,
you don’t hear any of the tones or pulses normally associated with
telephones. You don’t hear tones because your console
‘communicates’ with the rest of your telephone system with different
types of signals.
However, there are times when you need to send tones in order to
complete your call. Typically, special services such as voice mail
require passwords or other information in the form of tones before
allowing access.
To generate tones
Once the connection is made and you are prompted to enter digits:
1. Press Tones.
The Tones indicator in the Console Status area appears dimmed
when tone signaling is turned off.
2. Dial the code.
To turn off tone signaling
•Press Release
to disconnect your console from the call. Tone signaling stops
automatically.
or
•Press Tones again to turn off the tones.
