Switchboard compatibility
Setting the TONE or
PULSE mode
Your Diverse 2015 is preset to
TONE dialling – where you hear a
tone beep each time you dial a
number. Tone dialling is suitable for
all modern digital exchanges and
switchboards. So you will only need
to use this if your switchboard uses
pulse dialling. If you cannot make a
call with TONE dialling, you may
need to switch to PULSE dialling.
To set PULSE dialling
• Press the STO button then the #
button.
• Press the 1 button.
• Enter the current system code
(default 0000).
• Press the LNR button.
• Press the buttons 0, 3, 3.
• Press the STO button to set pulse
dialling.
Your Diverse 2015 can be connected
to all compatible switchboards.
For a list of suitable switchboards,
phone Diverse Helpline on
0345 908070 or BT on 154.
Entering external access codes for
older switchboards.
When you use your telephone on a
switchboard you may need to
program a delay after you have
dialled the access code. This
enables the switchboard to pick up
an external line. By storing the
access code your switchboard uses,
for example ‘9’, you can set this
delay to be inserted automatically.
You will still need to dial the access
code each time before calling any
telephone number you want.
