Tone/Pulse Dialing
With some older Central Offices, you may have to make calls on outside lines
programmed for rotary dial pulses. This feature enables you, while on these lines, to
switch to tone dial to access remote equipment (such as an answering machine)
requiring touchtones.
Note With ISDN calls, when Tone Dial Select is pressed, all of the digits entered
after that point will be sent with touchtones.
³ To change Tone Dialing
1. Access an outside line.
2. Dial a telephone number.
3. While on the call, press
Tone Dial Select. Although the outside line is
programmed for rotary dial pulses, access the outside line and dial the telephone
number like any other call described in this user guide.
The Tone LED lights steady red and you are able to send touchtones with your dial
pad. The feature is cancelled when the call is completed.
