•
If you are not sure of
your dialing system,
make a trial call. If the
call connects, leave the
setting as is, otherwise
set for 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
14).
