Features
Speed Dial
System Speed Dial numbers are programmed by using the Labeling feature. The
programmed labels include the name of the business or person being called and
the number dialed. When a person with a display telephone uses a Speed Dial
code to dial the number, the number being dialed appears on the display unless it
is a marked Speed Dial number.
For numbers that include confidential information, such as passwords or account
billing numbers, the listing can be specifically designated in system programming
to suppress the number dialed so that users with display telephones see only the
code that is dialed (600–729) and not the number dialed. This is called a marked
System Speed Dial code. When a number is dialed using a marked System
Speed Dial code, any calling restrictions (such as toll or outward restrictions)
assigned to the extension are overridden. In addition, the System Speed Dial
code is printed on Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) reports instead of
the number.
The range of numbers available for System Speed Dial codes is 600 through 729;
this range cannot be changed.
The codes are available to all users except QCC operators. On multiline
telephones, line buttons can be programmed with individual 3-digit System Speed
Dial codes. Each System Speed Dial code must be programmed on a separate
button.
System Speed Dial numbers are stored in the System Directory. MLX display
telephone users can search the directory and select a listing by pressing a display
button to dial the number. Users with analog multiline display or nondisplay
telephones dial the same numbers either by using the 3-digit System Speed Dial
codes or by programming individual System Speed Dial codes onto buttons.
Personal Speed Dial
Personal Speed Dial allows a user to program up to 24 numbers that can be
dialed using a 2-digit code. Personal Speed Dial is used only by single-line
telephone users and users with multiline telephones having 16 or fewer buttons—
for example, MLX-5, MLX-5D, MLX-10, MLX-10D, or MLX-16DP telephones.
Personal Speed Dial may be used by digital data workstations and modem
data-only workstations, but all numbers must be programmed for the
communications device through centralized telephone programming.
Personal Speed Dial allows a user to dial a 2-digit code for long numbers that may
require, for example, account codes, long-distance company access codes, and
area codes. In Hybrid/PBX mode, a Personal Speed Dial number also can include
pool dial-out codes or the ARS code. When dial-out codes are included, Pause
characters may be required immediately following the dial-out code to allow time
to receive the telephone company dial tone.
