Changing from Tone to Pulse Dialing
Phones can communicate with the telephone network in two different
ways: tone (DTMF) or pulse dialing. If you know your phone company uses
pulse dialing or you can't make your test call, follow these steps:
With the phone in standby, press
SELECT/MENU
.
Use
UP
or
DOWN
to highlight
Global Setup
, then press
SELECT/MENU
.
Use
UP
or
DOWN
to highlight
Dial mode
, then press
SELECT/MENU
.
Highlight
Pulse
, then press
SELECT/MENU
. The phone sounds a
confirmation tone. Try making another test call.
If you use pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones during a call (if
you're using an automated response system, for example), press to
temporarily switch to tone dialing. When the call ends, the phone
automatically returns to pulse dialing mode.
