How do or can I generate DTMF tone thru a system using PRI with DID #'s. The customer needs the last four didget tones for a fax modem in his server to able him to route faxes based on the DID # received. I have a block of five DID #'s programmed to ATA ext. going to the fax modem. It will send and recieve a fax fine but the DTMF tones needed for the fax server are not passing the key system.

thanks for any help
 
first an ata is a single line device and can only handle 1 call at a time

"There are those who would make you believe there are no choices left.That they have the last word and its final.To those who try the world is wide open choices many.To those who dont only death awaits you.
 
a station port terminates a call - you'll need a trunk to pass the call onto another terminal

examples: the same interface should be present on teh fax server as well
E&M
T1
PRI

Phone Co -> PRI -> Norstar -> trunk -> Fax server
 
You either need a VMI interface for 'loop start with dtmf' but those are manufacture discontinued and hard to find, or use an E&M interface or T1 as above.
