2 Programmable feature keys

Note: Certain items shown in the menu above may not be applicable to your
specific ESI system. Consult your System Administrator for more information.
Programmable feature keys
There are two methods for programming your phone:
• Direct programming — Select the key you want to program, and hold it down for at
least two seconds. This not only initiates programming but also lets you immediately
program that specific key.
• Traditional programming — Press PROG/HELP. The Verbal User Guide will speak to
you, walking you through the full menu, during which you can choose the appropriate
option.
The programmable feature keys can be programmed as:
• Line keys — If programmed with a two-digit line number, the key will become a line
key providing lamp information and outside line access.
• Station keys — If programmed with a three- or four-digit extension number, the key
will provide station lamp status and direct station access and transfer.
• Speed-dial keys — Can be used for automatic dialing of frequently called outside
numbers. Enter the line access code (9, 8, or 7) plus the phone number.
• Additional-feature keys — Depending on your system, these may include day/night
control, service observing, agent log-on, system speed dial, personal greeting, etc. See
the System Administrator for assistance.
Once you have programmed a programmable feature key, the default system name for
the item (e.g., a person's name for a station key) will appear. You can customize that
name (up to 10 characters in length) on a per-extension basis by using your phone's
dialpad.
