Answer Mode
Menu 8-3
This menu option allows you to select how to answer an
incoming call. The following options are available:
By any Key
: The phone answers when you press any
key except .
By send key
: The phone answers only when you press
.
Tone Length
Menu 8-4
The tone length setting enables you to select
normal
or
long
DTMF (dual-tone multi-frequency) tones. When you
use a teleservice (such as your bank account) and press
the keys to enter numbers into the teleservice, you are
sending DTMF tones. The system used by the bank or
other service determines if you need short or long DTMF
tones. If the service is digital (which most are these
days) short DTMF will almost always work. However,
some new systems and almost all older (analog)
systems require you to use long DTMF tones. Many
home answering machines require long DTMF tones.
