Storing DTMF tones
The Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) tones al-
low you to communicate with voice mailboxes,
computerised telephony systems, etc. For infor-
mation on how to send DTMF tones, see chapter
4 "Telephone: Managing calls - Sending DTMF
tones" on page 4-5, or chapter 13 "Phone inter-
face: Sending DTMF tones" on page 13-3.
• If you only communicate with the contact
using DTMF tones, create a contact card for
the DTMF contact.
• If you need both a voice and a DTMF phone
number for the contact, add a new field to an
existing contact card. The DTMF sequence can
be stored either in the Tel field, after the tele-
phone number, or separately, in a DTMF field.
If you store the sequence in a Tel field, the
phone number and the DTMF sequence must
be separated by one of the DTMF special char-
acters. Label the field (with Change label) so
you can identify the DTMF sequence.
The DTMF special characters are listed in the
following table:

cation events relating to the selected contact.
