Pulse Dialing

In some locations, analog telephone users must dial telephone calls using

 

pulse dialing instead of tone dialing (also called Dual Tone Multi

 

Frequency, or DTMF, dialing).

 

Your administrator configures Analog Line Card ports for pulse dialing.

Examples:

Some of your telephone lines are provided by a telephone company that supports only pulse dialing while other lines are provided by a different telephone company that support DTMF dialing.

Your organization’s telephone service provider offers low-cost, pulse-dialing-only service.

In some situations, you must switch to DTMF dialing during a call. For example, if your call is answered by an automated attendant that requires that you enter information from your telephone keypad, you must typically enter the information using DTMF dialing.

Using a Feature Code To change from pulse dialing to DTMF during a call:

1Press the Feature button and 891.
