Secrets of modern communication: mysterious tone mode
Have you ever wondered why when you dial a number on your mobile phone you hear a beep, and at home on a stationary device - clicks? Or why, when dialing an additional prefix in the support service, they say to us: "Make sure that the phone's tone mode is on"? But what is it and how to activate it?
Pulse and tone mode are two ways by which the PBX can transmit information about which number you have dialed. When dialing a number in the pulse mode, you hear a click. Their number depends on the number you clicked. Therefore, when dialing a unit, we hear one click, and when typing zero, we hear ten.
They are in every major city, so that you can easily become their subscriber. If your network supports tone dialing, you still need to contact your fixed line operator to activate this service, as well as related additional functions. For example, caller ID and blocking of calls from certain subscribers.
Another interesting feature, available if tone mode is connected, is the ability to hold a call. So you can always answer an important call, and your friends and colleagues will not be annoyed by your constant employment.
Using tone dialing mode, remember that the additional services associated with it are often paid separately and should be supported by your fixed-device model.
In short, today there are two dialing modes: tone and pulse. The tone mode is more modern and is used by default in mobile phones, which allows their owners to use a number of functions of modern networks. In addition, he has no shortcomings in the "old" impulse set.
