System information
SETTING UP THE APPLICATION 49
Some system options use special characters
to control certain functions of the telephone
system (for example, pause, hook-switch
flash, and disconnect). Because your
responses during the technician’s conver-
sation are limited to the keys on the touch-
tone telephone, press the following digits
to indicate the special dialing characters.
For example, to change the external line
access string (system option 310) to 8
followed by a pause, you press 8#00.
