Description
The Directory feature is a built-in, interactive telephone book that stores listings
of names and telephone or extension numbers. Users with MLX display
telephones can dial numbers by selecting listings from the display.
Directory listings are divided into three types:
■
■
■
System Directory: Names and numbers of outside contacts (such as
clients and suppliers). These listings are created in system
programming and are assigned System Speed Dial codes to allow users
with telephones other than MLX display telephones to dial these listings
in the directory. See Speed Dial for details.
Extension Directory: System extensions and the names of the users
assigned to them. This directory can only be accessed with a name,
Names are added to the directory by using the Labeling feature of
system programming. (MLX display telephones only.)
Personal Directory: Individual users’ listings of names and numbers
(outside telephone numbers and extensions). This directory is available
on MLX-20L telephones only and is accessible only at the telephone
where created.
System Directory
System Directory listings are established and changed only through system
programming using the Labeling feature. Each listing consists of a three-digit
Speed Dial number, an 11-character name field, and a 40-digit number field.
Up to 130 listings are stored. Any listing can be specifically designated to
suppress the display of a confidential number. When dialing a number
designated or marked in this way, users see only the System Speed Dial code
associated with the listing. A marked System Speed Dial code can be identified
in the System Directory report by an asterisk preceding the telephone number.
When a marked System Speed Dial code is used to dial a number, any calling
restrictions associated with that number (such as outward or toll restrictions) are
overridden.
