I dialed an airline automated infomation system the other day
and it allowed responses to be either tone or pulse encoded.

The tones could be detected at any time, but you had to wait till
after a beep for the pulse code to be recognised.

What mechanism to they use to detect the pulses?

Can you buy equipment that will respond to tones and pulses?

Are pulses only able to be detected on an incoming analog line,
or could they also be detected on an ISDN line from a call
originating in the POTS network?

Thanks for your help,

I have forgotten to ask a few more questions:

	6) What speed do they offer?(64kbps, 128kbps, etc?)

It's fairly detailed. See below for how to get the information.

 s>         3) Who provides International ISDN connection in Australia?

OTC, automatically available when you have the Telecom connection. It's
known as OTC Switched Digital.

$3.60 for the first minute then $1.00 per minute.

Ring the AOTC Consultancy and Information Centre 008 077 222, and ask for
the ISDN Macrolink and Microlink price guide. They should be able to give
you a contact for OTC in Sydney who can tell you about OTC Switched Digital
(International ISDN). 

Macrolink (ISDN Primary Rate) is 30 * 64 kbps B channels plus a 64 kbps D
channel. Microlink (ISDN Basic Rate) is 2 * 64 kbps B channels plus a 16
kbps D channel.

Microsoft Product Support in North Ryde, Sydney (02) 870 2133, (008) 252 291
uses what sounds like the same system. Tone dial sequences are recognised 
immediately (I have my 'phone programmed to spit a whole shitload of tones at it
so I get in the queue in next to no time) They advertise that pulse diallers must wait until the big-balls baritone stops speaking before they start hittin

Various manufacturers can supply equipment that can handle telephone
pulses and tones. The only examples that I can state are those from 
Digital, the old DECTalk and the newer DECvoice.

DECvoice comes in several forms, one being a QBUS board that plugs
into a VAX and allows voice sampling/playback, voice synthesis and
telephone pulse/tone handling.
