Hello. I am looking for a device that will accept an RS232 input signal, and will decode this is a DTMF (phone - tone) signal. This would allow us to use a terminal to dial out on our phones (we have a tremendous phone list assembled on our UNIX system). We just need a device (if one exists) to do this transference. Does anyone know of such a device????? Please reply to my email address if at all possible as I do not usually read this newsgroup (I've got too many to keep up on already!). Thank you very much....

Sure, it is called a "modem". Just get an autodial modem and pick up the phone after it is done dialing.
