Telephone
44
You can send DTMF tones to the network to, for example,
access automated phone services, voice mailboxes, or
banking systems.
You can send DTMF tones automatically if you have added
a DTMF tone to the DTMF field in a contact card in
Contacts application. You can also send DTMF tones
manually in the Dialler view of Telephone. The manual
method of transmitting DTMF tones is recommended when
the DTMF tone string is short.
To send DTMF tone strings automatically during a
call, press , and select Options > Send DTMF.... If
there is a DTMF string for the currently active call in
Contacts, the Send DTMF dialog opens. Tap Send to
send the DTMF tone automatically, or Enter manually
to use the Dialler view. The Dialler view opens
automatically if there is no DTMF string for the call in
Contacts.
To enter DTMF tones manually during a call, tap
Dialler or press . Enter the DTMF string.
Tip: There are 2 special characters that you can use by
double-tapping * on the keypad:
• p (pause) - Causes a three-second pause between
the digits in a DTMF tone string. All digits that
follow the pause are treated as DTMF tones.
• w (wait) - Pauses the sending of DTMF digits until
you tap Send. The rest of the string is sent to the
network. All digits that follow the wait are treated
as DTMF tones.
You can add DTMF tones to the DTMF field in a contact
card.
