Dial Type Selection
Description
Used to select the desired dialing mode for each CO line regardless of originating call
extension (rotary or tone).
There are two dialing modes available:
DTMF (Dual Tone Multi-Frequency) Mode
The dialing signal from an extension, either tone or rotary, is converted to tone dialing.
DTMF signals are transmitted to the CO line.
Pulse Dial (Rotary) Mode
The dialing signal from an extension, either tone or rotary, is converted to rotary dialing.
Rotary pulses are transmitted to the CO line.
Conditions
• Pulse to Tone Conversion
The extension user can convert the pre-assigned rotary dialing mode to DTMF mode
temporarily. DTMF mode cannot be changed to rotary.
• DISA
Either DTMF or rotary dialing can be assigned for the DISA (Direct Inward System Access)
outgoing line. With DISA, Pulse to Tone Conversion is not possible.
• If you specify "Pulse" as "Dial Type" of a trunk line, select an appropriate pulse speed,
pulse break ratio, and inter-digit pause for the line, if necessary. If you specify "DTMF,"
select an appropriate DTMF duration for the line in "Card Properties" screen, if necessary.
Please refer to "Card Type" of Section "1.2 Slot Assignment" in the Programming Guide
for further information on "Card Properties."
