DTMF Dual Tone Multi Frequency. A system of coded signals
used by touch-tone telephones in which a specific sound,
frequency or tone is assigned to each key so that the
signal can be easily recognized by a computer. The codes
enable data input and control of voice-processing
systems. DTMF signals can pass through the entire
connection to the destination device and therefore are
used for remote control after the connection with the MCU
is established.
E1 Line A 2Mb digital switched line used in Europe.
