2-330 Saved Number Dial
In the Behind Switch mode, when a user manually dials an outside number that
includes a dial-out code (for example an Automatic Route Selection or pool dial-
out code) required by the host system, the pauses required to wait for dial tone
from some host systems are not automatically stored when Saved Number Dial
is used. As a result, the user may either hear a fast busy signal or reach a wrong
number when redialing the stored number by using Saved Number Dial.
The number of Saved Number Dial buttons that can be programmed on each
multiline telephone is limited only by the number of available programmable
buttons.
A maximum of 16 digits is saved by Saved Number Dial.
Since the type of line button (Personal Line or Intercom/System Access) used
to make the call is not stored, the user must select the appropriate line button
before using Saved Number Dial to redial a number.
Unlike Last Number Dial, Saved Number Dial allows users to make calls to
other numbers without affecting the number that is stored on the
programmed button.
The green LED next to the programmed Saved Number Dial button does not
go on when the feature is used.
Saved Number Dial does not store numbers dialed via an Extension,
Personal, or System Directory; an inside Auto Dial button; a System Speed
Dial code; or a DSS button.
If the multiline telephone user dials an incomplete number and presses the
Saved Number Dial button before hanging up, the digits are saved.
If a user dials a telephone number and, after the call is connected, dials
additional digits such as an account number or password, Saved Number
Dial saves all the digits, including those dialed after the call is connected. In
addition, if someone other than the owner of a display telephone presses the
Saved Number Dial button, all dialed digits are shown on the display,
including confidential information such as passwords or account codes.
Before pressing a Saved Number Dial button, the user must select the same
type of line that was used to make the call originally. For example, if the user
saved an extension number, he or she must select a System Access or
Intercom button before pressing the Saved Number Dial button.
If the number dialed with an outside Auto Dial button or Personal Speed Dial
code includes a special character such as Pause or Stop, the special
character does not work when the number is redialed via Saved Number
Dial.
