Pulse dialing

(1/5) > >>

AndroidsOfTara:
I know that the OBi110 only supports DTMF, but has anyone attempted dialing with a rotary phone with a device such as this:

between the phone and the OBi?

It is a pulse to tone converter that would allow me to fully utilize my collection of old rotary phones with my OBi.

For $49.95 you're better off to get a nice modern phone...

Thanks, but I *like* using using my old phones. Hence the reason for my question.....

MichiganTelephone:
If you can find an old Mitel Smart1 dialer, they did pulse to tone conversion if I recall correctly.  Just be aware that they are kind of a bear to program, particularly if you are doing it from the phone and not by using a serial cable.  And also be aware that if you can't find the programming guide somewhere you will never be able to figure out how to program them — they are definitely NOT "plug and play."

I just received a Dialgizmo this weekend, and can confirm that it works great with my OBi100 (and I assume the OBi110 as well). It's a slick device, and the company is responsive. If you do order one, tell them Josh sent you. :)
