Intercom Dial Tone (#309)

This System Programming procedure determines the type of dial tone that the system provides at an extension. It may be necessary to change this setting to Machine (outside line) dial tone for an autodialing device, such as a fax or modem, that has trouble making calls. For example, if you have a modem that checks for outside line dial tone before dialing, use this procedure to change from Regular to Machine dial tone.

Considerations

Use this procedure only if an autodialing device has trouble making calls.

Valid Entries

1 = Regular dial tone

2 = Machine (outside line) dial tone
