D. Choose the dialing mode
Most phone systems use tone dialing which sends DTMF tones through the
phone lines. However some phone systems still use pulse dialing. Pulse
dialing is often found in rural areas. The default setting is tone dialing.
Depending on your dialing system, set the mode as follows:
1) Press
menu/enter
.
2) Press
▲
or
▼
and select “
Tone/Pulse
”.
3) Press
menu/enter
, and the display will show the
current setting. (The initial setting is Tone.)
4) Press
▲
or
▼
to change the selection.
5) Press
menu/enter
to confirm your selection.
6) The display will automatically change to the
Menu Screen after 3 to 5 seconds.
• If you are not sure of your dialing system, set the unit to tone dialing.
Make a trial call. If the call connects, leave the setting as is, otherwise
set the unit to pulse dialing.
• If your phone system requires pulse dialing and you need to send the
DTMF tones for certain situations during a call, you may “switch-over” to
tone dialing. (Refer to “Tone Dialing Switch-over” on page 21.)
Make sure your battery
pack is fully charged
before choosing the
dialing mode.
