Programming Special
Characters
When you program Personal Directory listings, Auto Dial
buttons, or Personal Speed Dial codes, you are storing a
sequence of numbers to be dialed automatically. Some
sequences need special characters — for example, press
Hold
to insert a p to pause the dialing sequence after a dial-
out code so the system can seize an outside line before
dialing the number or to separate a phone number from an
extension number.
The following chart describes special characters. Ask your
system manager which special characters are needed and
when to use them.
