Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (P7270 only)
Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) is the system used by touch-tone telephones. DTMF assigns a
specific tone frequency to each key so a microprocessor can easily identify its activation. This allows for
specific tasks such as entering a user ID and password, or selective calling.
