Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) Dialing
This feature allows you to use additional phone services, such as accessing an alternate long distance network, signaling a pager, or banking by phone. The following two sections explain how using Memory and Pause make it easier to send DTMF messages.
Note: If SILENT displays, to turn on the keytone, see Silent Scratchpad on page 46.
