Section 2 Speedcall - AT&T SPIRIT 308 Administration Manual

SECTION 2 SpeedCall

The SpeedCall feature is an important time saver for users. SpeedCall numbers are dialed by
using a two-digit code. There are two kinds of SpeedCall numbers: personal and system.
Personal SpeedCall numbers are entered by the users of the sets. These numbers are available
only at the telephone where they are stored. Each user may store 16 personal SpeedCall numbers.
System SpeedCall numbers are stored in the system memory and are for the use of all the
users in the system. The system can store 70 system SpeedCall numbers; of these 70, 50 are
unrestricted and 20 are restricted (see below).
Restricted and Unrestricted SpeedCall Numbers
Unrestricted SpeedCall numbers (including toll numbers) may be called by using a two-digit
code from any telephone in the system that has full permission to an outside line, including
telephones restricted from making outside calls or toll calls. For this reason, emergency
numbers such as FIRE, POLICE, and AMBULANCE, should be entered as unrestricted numbers.
Unrestricted numbers are stored with codes 30-79.
The Outside Service restrictions (see page 16) you may have assigned to each telephone apply to
numbers stored with codes 80-99, which are restricted SpeedCall numbers. The number 911
can be dialed from any telephone set that has at least one line with full line use permission
and does not require entering as a SpeedCall number.
In summary,
Unrestricted SpeedCall numbers:
may be called from any telephone regardless of OUTSIDE SERVICE customization.
Restricted SpeedCall numbers:
may be called from telephones with Unrestricted OUTSIDE SERVICE.
may be called from telephones with Toll Restricted OUTSIDE SERVICE, if the numbers are local.
may not be called from telephones with Outward Restricted OUTSIDE SERVICE.
SpeedCall Directories
Be sure you keep an accurate directory of the numbers you have stored in the system SpeedCall
memory. Since numbers may be erased and added often, it's a good idea to make a simple
directory that can be copied as often as necessary. Photocopy the sample System SpeedCall
Directory on page 28.
