Some telephone companies use equipment that requires
pulse dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you
need to enter tone dialing digits, you can switch-over to tone
dialing during the call. For example, entering your bank
account number after you have called your bank.
Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once
your call connects, press
✱
/tone
. Enter the desired number.
These digits will be sent as tone dialing. This special
number can be stored in a memory location. This is referred
to as Chain Dialing. Once the call ends, the tone mode is
canceled and pulse dialing mode resumes.
