Using the DTMF Mode. Activating / Deactivating DTMF
You want to be able to use your phone to control other equipment or to access certain services, such as
remote polling of an answering machine or telebanking. For these services you need the DTMF mode.
In the DTMF mode each key press generates a tone. If for example you key in a call number during a call,
your call partner will hear the tone signals.
You can use the configuration mode ("DTMF" menu) to specify whether the DTMF mode should be
generally activated or deactivated.
If the DTMF mode is generally deactivated, you can use the *-key to activate it temporarily (and deactivate
it again) during the call.
Making a call on a third-party phone
You want to make a call on a third-party phone using your personal settings, for example on a colleagues
phone or in a meeting room.
You can activate a third-party phone to make an internal or external call using your personal settings,
even if the phone is locked for external calls.
You can activate the phone for a business [A] or private [C] call.
The called party's display shows your personal phone number and not the number of the phone from
which you are making your call.
Any call charges incurred will be charged to you.
