En-Bloc Dialing - Broadconnect IP Office 1408 User Manual

2.1 En-Bloc Dialing

By default, when you start dialing a number on your phone, the phone immediately connects to the telephone system and
starts passing the digits you dial to the phone system. You cannot correct the digits you have already dialed except by
ending the call and starting again. Also if you pause dialing for too long the phone system may think that you have
finished dialing and will attempt to connect the call using only the digits you have completed dialing so far.
En-bloc dialing allows you to compose and edit the number to dial on your phone's display before it is sent to the phone
system to be dialed.
Through the phone's menus you can select whether you want to use traditional or en-bloc dialing when making calls. Your
chosen setting is then applied whenever you are using a phone that supports en-bloc dialing.
