1.5.4.4 Dial Type Selection
Description
The dialling mode (rotary or tone) can be selected for each analogue trunk through system programming
regardless of the originating extension (under contract with the telephone company).
There are the following modes:
Mode Description
DTMF (Dual Tone
Multi-Frequency) The dialling signal from an extension is converted to tone dialling.
DTMF signals are transmitted to the trunk.
Pulse Dial (Rotary) The dialling signal from an extension is converted to rotary dialling.
Rotary pulses are transmitted to the trunk.
Conditions
•
Pulse to Tone Conversion
It is possible for an extension user to temporarily switch from Pulse mode to DTMF mode so that the user
can access special services such as computer-accessed long distance calling or voice mail services. To
switch to DTMF mode, wait for a preprogrammed time period (Default: five seconds) after the trunk is
connected, or press . This feature works only on trunks set to Pulse mode. DTMF mode cannot be
changed to Pulse mode.
•
It is possible to select the pulse rate for a trunk port that has been set to Pulse mode. There are two pulse
rates: Low (10 pps) and High (20 pps).
•
It is possible to assign the minimum duration of the DTMF signal sent to a trunk port that has been set to
DTMF mode.
