Programming System Speed Dial

System Speed Dial numbers and names can be programmed by the installer or at any adminis-

trator endpoint.

Speed Dial Numbers

System Speed Dial numbers can contain up to 48 digits each and can include hookflashes and/

or pauses for dialing a series of numbers. For example, the Speed Dial number can contain an

SCC local number, a pause, an access code, and the phone number. To use PBX trunks in

Speed Dial numbers, enter the other system’s trunk access codes followed by a pause. The

lengths of the hookflash and the pause are determined by the programmable CO Hookflash and

Pause Digit timers.

To program System Speed Dial numbers, use one of the following methods:

• Use the dialpad to manually dial the number. To backspace, press .

• Press to enter the last number dialed or saved at the endpoint (up to 48 digits).

• Press one of the Speed Dial buttons on the Inter-Tel endpoint to enter the outside phone

number (up to 16 digits) programmed under that button.

Speed Dial Names

Speed dial names can contain up to 16 characters.

Dialpad buttons are used to enter letters, numbers, and punctuation in English/Spanish, or Jap-

anese (Katakana). When programming Speed Dial names, you can press or

USE

ALPHA MODE/USE NUMERIC MODE

menu button to switch between alphanumeric and

numeric modes.

To program Speed Dial names:

• In numeric mode, the dialpad buttons are used to enter numbers 0–9, the pound ( )

button is used for entering a hyphen (-), and the asterisk ( ) button is used for entering

a colon (:). For example, 1 00 would enter “1:00” in numeric mode.

• In alphanumeric mode, dialpad buttons are used to enter letters, numbers, and punctu-

ation. The number of times a button is pressed determines which character is entered.

For example, 533266 would enter “JEAN.” When adjoining characters are located

under the same button, press to advance to the next character. For example, 66

6667776 would enter “NORM.”

If you make a mistake, use the button to backspace. Or, press or

CANCEL at any

time to cancel the operation (the name and number in memory remains unchanged and the dis-

play shows FEATURE CANCELED). Once the feature is cancelled, start over.
