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 such as in rural areas. The default
setting is tone dialing. Depending on your dialing system, set the mode as follows:
1) When the phone is in the standby mode, press
menu/mute
.
2) Press
-/
to move the pointer to “
Dial Mode
”.
3) Press
select/chan
and the display will show the current
setting. (The initial setting is Tone.)
4) Press
+
or
-/
to change the selection.
5) Press
select/chan
, and you will hear a confirmation tone.
6) Press
end
to exit.
• 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 26.)
