Introduction

Before you start

Before you start there are a few terms and concepts you should be familiar with:
Abbreviations
Automatic dialing features
There are three automatic dialing features available:
One number can be stored and then automatically dialed by pressing the Auto Dial key.
A list of numbers is stored by the Speed Call Controller. Any of these numbers can be dialed automatically
by pressing the Speed Call key or by entering the Speed Call SPRE code, and then entering the code
assigned to the desired number.
One number can be stored after it has been dialed, either before or during the connection, and then can
be dialed again later, automatically.
Codes
There are a number of codes you will use in operating the console. The System Administrator is
responsible for providing you with a list of all the codes you need. There are a few types of codes:
An authorization code permits you to temporarily override the access restrictions assigned to a
caller's extension.
A route access code directs a call over a certain route to reach a specific destination. You may dial a code
to represent the trunk over which the call is to travel (over an "outside line," such as a public network,
WATS, or Tie trunk line) or to represent an attendant console to which you wish to place or transfer a call.
