7.16 Switching The Dialing Mode
Between Pulse And Tone
If the telephone service in your locality is pulse (rotary
dialing), the installer arranges your telephone to dial in this
manner. If you need to send tones during a dialing sequence
(for example, to send bank-by-telephone tones), you can
convert to tone dialing mode while dialing. The system will
switch back to pulse dialing when you end your call.
