System Telephone Features

This chapter contains an alphabetical summary of all features that may be provided
on your telephone. You will only be able to use those features that have been
configured on to your telephone by the system administrator.
NOTE: Each user's phone features are configured by the phone service
provider. It is possible that some system features are not configured on your
phone. If you do not have a feature listed in this chapter and would like to have
it on your phone, contact your system administrator for help.
NOTE: This chapter may cover more than one version of Cisco 7960 phone
(SCCP or MGCP). Although the chapter applies to all types, some information
may apply only to a certain phone configuration. The user is alerted to these
differences by an icon which is shown at left. The icon appears in the left
margin next to where the information differs. For how to identify your phone
configuration, see "Identifying Your 7960 Telephone Type" on page 4.
Feature Activation Digit
Some features require you to dial an activating digit followed by a numeric code
(example: 588). The default value for this activating digit is 5 and it is used
throughout this document. However, your system administrator may choose to use
another digit for this function. In that case, substitute your activating digit for the
default. Operation of all features will be exactly the same.
NOTE: The feature codes ("star codes") listed in these procedures are the
default values for your phone system at the time of installation. They may be
changed by your system administrator. Any list of feature codes given to you
by your system administrator should be used in place of the codes listed here.

Abbreviated Dial

This feature lets a you create, modify, delete, verify and use a personal list of up to
100 Abbreviated Dial codes. Abbreviated Dial codes must be entered as two digits
when programming and dialing (Example: enter 04 instead of 4).

Creating an Abbreviated Dial Code

NOTE: On the 7960 MGCP phone, you may skip the next step.
