Features
Rotary signaling can be set for Delay or No Delay. Delay is the factory setting,
which makes the rotary pulse inaudible to the telephone user and delays
sending the dialed number from the control unit to the trunk until the user is
finished dialing.
Considerations and Constraints
Tie trunks are set up either to send signals to or receive signals from another
PBX, or they are set up to be bidirectional—to send and receive signals. If the
system has bidirectional tie trunks, the signaling can be set for both directions
independently. For example, outgoing (outmode) signaling can be rotary and
incoming (inmode) can be touch-tone. The local telephone company should be
consulted for more information.
The audible feedback for touch-tones generated when a user presses a dialpad
button can be heard by any user who shares a Personal Line or a Shared SA
button with the telephone that is used to make a call. Therefore, when dialing
confidential numbers such as passwords or account information, the user
should take precautions, such as activating Privacy, to prevent others from
hearing the touch-tones.
Touch-tone dial mode cannot be programmed for DID trunks that are
immediate-start.
Touch-tone dial mode cannot be programmed for incoming, immediate tie
trunks.
Touch-tone, single-line telephone users cannot make calls using individual
trunks programmed for rotary operation. The touch-tone signals generated from
the telephone while dialing are transmitted to the central office at the same time
the rotary signals are sent by the system. The central office receives both
signals and cannot process the call.
Mode Differences
In the Behind Switch mode, the factory setting for rotary signaling should be
changed to No Delay.
