When you need to enter one or more tone signals, press the "*" key and then press the appropriate numeric keys.
To change back to pulse mode, simply hang up (the dialling mode automatically changes back to the setting of Option Setting 9 when you hang up).
PBX operations
If your fax is connected to a PBX, you can use it to perform the following operations:
♦Making enquiry calls: During a call, you can put the other party on hold, make a further call to a third party, and then go back to your original caller.
