- For TOUCH-TONE or TOUCH CALLING, the following is true,
-
- Low |
- Group |
- (hertz)|
- |
- --------|-------|-------|-------|
- 697 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
- --------|-------|-------|-------|
- 770 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
- --------|-------|-------|-------|
- 852 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
- --------|-------|-------|-------|
- 941 | * | 0 | # |
- --------|-------|-------|-------|---------------------
- | 1209 | 1336 | 1477 | High group (hertz)
-
- Each digit is composed of one frequency from the low group and one frequency
- from the high group. The frequencies have been chsen to minimize voice
- simulation.
-
-
- If you are using another system, the above chart will not hold true, but this
- is what is found in 'most' phones here in the US.
