Tone Dialing Switch-over
Some telephone companies use equipment that require pulse dialing (sometimes
referred to as rotary dialing). If you need to enter tone dialing digits, you can
switch-over to tone dialing during the call. An example of this could be entering your
bank account number after you have called your bank. The digits of your bank account
can be entered using DTMF tones.
Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once
your call connects, press
*
// ttoonnee
on the handset, or
*
//
ttoonnee
on the base. Enter the desired number (like in example
above the bank account number). These digits will be sent
as tone dialing. This special number can be stored in a
memory location. This is referred to as Chain Dialing (See
page 20). Once the call ends, the tone mode is canceled
and pulse dialing mode resumes.
The tone feature only
applies when the dial
mode is set to pulse.

Traveling Out-of-Range
During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit,
noise increases. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, your call will
terminate within 30 seconds.
