Changing the dialling mode (analogue fixed line)
This section extends the chapter „Connecting the base to the PABX" in the user guide for your
Gigaset phone. It applies to connections via the analogue fixed line.
Changing the dialling mode is only necessary if the PABX the phone is connected
to requires it; see the PABX user manual.
The following dialling modes can be selected:
u
Tone dialling (Tone),
u
Pulse dialling (Pulse).
Regardless of the setting options above, after dialling or during a call, the phone
automatically switches to tone dialling (DTMF) e.g., for controlling an answering
machine remotely.

Switching temporarily to tone dialling (DTMF)
This section extends the chapter „Connecting the base to the PABX" in the user guide for your
Gigaset phone. It applies to connections via the analogue fixed line.
If your PABX still operates with pulse dialling (PD), but you need tone dialling for a
connection (e.g., to listen to the network mailbox), you must switch to tone dialling
for the call.
Prerequisite: You are conducting a call or have already dialled an external number.
*
After the call ends, pulse dialling is automatically reactivated.
