The Dial Tones command generates tones called Dual Tone Multiple Frequency (DTMF) Tones or Touch-Tones™. The Dial Tones command is a synchronous command that can be used to dial a telephone. The tone characters are 0-9, #, *, and A, B, C, D (in uppercase only). A non-tone character generates a silent interval between dialed digits. Note that white space characters (tabs, spaces) should not be used as dial tone characters.
