Programming Numbers

You can program Flexible Direct Station Selection buttons,
Repertory Dialing buttons, and Personal Speed Dialing codes.
While only PDCs can be programmed into
strings of numbers and special characters may be programmed
into buttons and Personal Speed Dialing codes
(maximum of 28 characters).
This first part of this section describes, with examples, the use of
special characters in numbers to be stored (programmed) in
buttons and Personal Speed Dialing codes
(#20 – #26).
The remaining part of this section gives instructions on how to
actually program these. numbers using either a feature access
code or the Test/Program switch.
Special Characters

as an actual * character. The # may be used as as an actual #
character, as the start of a System Speed Dialing code, or as the
start of end-to-end signaling.
Special characters cannot be stored in
Using * For Pausing
A * (by itself) will produce a 1.5 second pause. For example:

This means: 9 (1.5 second pause) 5557023
Using * as an Actual * Character
If you wish to use a * as an actual * character, you must place a
# before the *. For example, you may wish to program the
Feature Access Code *7O into
