Send touch tones during a call

Dual tone multi-frequency tone system is used by all touch-tone telephones.
Touch tones assign a specific frequency, or tone, to each key so that it can easily
be identified by a microprocessor. Touch tones allow you to communicate with
voice mailboxes, computerized telephony systems, etc.
To send touch tones during a call, you have two methods:
• Type the digits with the communicator keyboard. No menu or command button
selection is needed before starting to type the digits. Each keystroke generates
a touch tone which is transmitted while the call is active.
• Alternatively,
1 Press Send tone. The touch tones sequences you have stored in the contact
card of the person you are talking with are shown. For information on how
to store touch tones sequences, see page 122.
2 Select a touch tones sequence. You can edit the sequence. If there are no stored
sequences, you can type a new touch tones sequence into the input field.
3 Press Send tone.
Note: You can send touch tones during a conference call by typing the digits
with the communicator keyboard, but you cannot access stored touch
tone sequences.
