Although this equipment can use either Pulse or Tone signalling, only the
performance of the Tone signalling is subject to regulatory requirements for correct
operation. It is therefore strongly recommended that the equipment is set to use
the Tone signalling for access to public or private emergency services. The Tone
signalling also provides faster call set up.
