Using SPOT as a Normal Phone

Dialling & Ringing Setup

You can configure various aspects of your SPOT.

LD or MF Dialling:

All phone lines in the UK support LD dialling which uses
a series of clicks for each number dialled. Almost all lines
also support MF dialling which uses a tone for each
number dialled. MF dialling is faster, more reliable and
provides access to special services. SPOT starts in MF
mode by default. If it does not appear to dial properly,
switch to LD dialling. If this cures the problem, then you
have a LD only telephone line.

To setup SPOT dialling & ringer controls:

1. Without picking up the handset, press 

SETUP

. Whilst the

lamp flashes (for approximately four seconds), select 

one

of the following options:
– To set LD dialling, press 

1

.

– To set MF dialling, press 

2.

– To switch the ringer off, press 

5

.

– To switch the ringer on, press 

6

.

2. After the four seconds, the lamp stays on. Press the

SPEAKER

 key to put the SPOT back to idle.

Switching from LD to MF During a Call

If you use LD dialling, after your call connects you can
switch to MF dialling. You need to do this if you dial a
service which expect you to use MF keys.

To switch from LD to MF during a call:

1. Press 

∗∗

. Any following key presses send MF tones to the

telephone line rather than LD pulses.

2. When the call ends, this setting automatically cancels

and returns the SPOT to LD dialling.
