Auto-dialing using Esi-Dex
. . . On an ESI phone with a two-line display
1. While your station is idle (or just after receiving internal dial tone), repeatedly press ESI-DEX to
select the desired Dex:
Notes: System Dex and Location Dex aren’t available on every system.
For the remainder of this example, we’ll assume you selected Personal Dex. However, the
procedure is the same for any of the other Dexes.
2. Choose the desired name from the selected Dex, using one of two methods.
Either:
(a.) Scroll — Press the scroll keys (

and

) to look up and down through the Dex until you find
the name (names will appear in the order in which they were stored in the Dex).
. . . Or . . .
(b.) Dial-by-name — Dial up to the first three characters
1
of the extension, department, or guest
mailbox name. For example: if you want to call John Doe, dial 5 6 4 (because it spells J O H).
You’ll begin to see names that begin with those letters. You can then use the scroll keys (

and

) until you find the desired name and number.
3. Press ESI-DEX again to dial the number.

(LOC) or Personal Dex (PER) — or press RELEASE to cancel the procedure.
Notes: System Dex and Location Dex aren’t available on every system.
For the remainder of this example, we’ll assume you selected Personal Dex. However, the
procedure is the same for any of the other Dexes.
