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 * / tone on the handset, or * / tone 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.

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.

note

The tone feature only applies when the dial mode is set to pulse.
