Users may dial certain numbers frequently, such as the numbers of clients,
suppliers, or branch offices. You can assign and store up to 130 four-character
System Speed Dial codes with a large processor module, and up to 40 with the
small processor module. To call these numbers, users simply dial the
4-character codes—a pound [#] sign or the Feature button followed by three
digits.
Assign System Speed Dial codes to telephone numbers that shouldn't be
displayed on telephones, such as numbers that contain access codes. You can
also assign labels to the System Speed Dial codes. These labels are listed in the
System Directory so that MLX telephone users can search for them and dial
System Speed Dial numbers with the touch of a button.
