Most phone systems use tone dialing, which sends DTMF tones through the phone lines.
However, some phone systems still use pulse dialing such as in rural areas. The default
setting is tone dialing. Depending on your dialing system, set the dial mode. To set the dial
mode, see “Setting the Dial Mode” on page E32.
• 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 DTMF tones in certain
situations during a call, you may Switch Over to tone dialing (refer to “Tone Dialing
Switch-over” on page E41).
