Assign Favorites
You can assign favorites to line keys on VVX Expansion Modules and automatically call contacts using the
line keys on the expansion modules. When you assign favorites on your phone, favorites are assigned to
the next available line key on the expansion module regardless of the index number. You can reorder your
favorites once they are created by changing the value of their index number. See the section
Favorites
for more information.
To assign a favorite on the VVX Expansion Module:
1 Press and hold an available line key on your expansion module.
2 From the Add Contact screen, enter the contact's information, including a unique favorite index,
and select Save.

available line on your expansion module and not necessarily the line corresponding to the line key
you pressed to assign the favorite.
