Using Pulse Dialing 103 Ringing feature on the manager's telephone and has specified 4 rings (a typical setting). When a call comes in to the manager on that extension, the assistant's telephone rings 4 times before the call audibly rings on the manager's telephone. Even during the first silent rings, the line's status light on the manager's telephone flashes, allowing the manager to answer the call if required. Using Pulse Dialing In some locations, analog telephone users must dial telephone calls using pulse dialing instead of tone dialing (also called Dual Tone Multi Frequency, or DTMF, dialing). Your administrator must configure the Analog Line Card ports for pulse dialing. Examples: ■ Some of your telephone lines are provided by a telephone company that supports only pulse dialing while other lines are provided by a different telephone company that supports DTMF dialing. ■ Your organization's telephone service provider offers low-cost, pulse-dialing-only service. ■ In some situations, you must switch to DTMF dialing during a call. For example, if your call is answered by an automated attendant that requires that you enter information from your telephone keypad, you must typically enter the information using DTMF dialing. To change from pulse dialing to DTMF during a call: 1 Press Feature + 891. 2 Your connection is switched from pulse to tone (DTMF) for the remainder of the call. When you hang up, the port you were using on the Analog Line Card reverts to pulse dialing mode. Your administrator can map a button on your telephone so that you can press the button to change from pulse dialing to DTMF during a call. When you hang up, the port that you were using on the Analog Line Card reverts to pulse dialing mode.
