Selecting dialling mode/
options (ISDN)
The
keypad
function allows you to control
certain features by entering sequences of
characters and digits.
The
keypad
function must be activated
when you connect your base to an ISDN
PABX or exchange (e.g., Centrex) that is con-
trolled using
keypad
protocol. The digits/
characters 0–9, * and # are sent as
keypad
information elements. Please ask your serv-
ice provider about the information and
codes you can transmit.
Setting options
You can switch between the
Auto. Tone Dial
,
Auto. Keypad
and
Dial of * and #
settings.
Auto. Tone Dial
Once normal dialling has been activated,
* and # are not transmitted during dial-
ling and if * and # are entered it is not pos-
sible to switch to the keypad.
Auto. Keypad
Once * or # have been entered, this set-
ting automatically switches signalling
during dialling to the keypad. This auto-
matic switchover is needed for giving
commands to the exchange or PABX.
Dial of * and #
Once
Dial of * and #
has been activated,
the * and # characters are transmitted
during dialling as commands to the
exchange or PABX.
Regardless of the setting options above,
after dialling or during a call the phone
switches automatically to tone dialling
(DTMF), e.g., for remote control of an
answering machine.
