Some Guidelines for Configuring Enhanced Feature Keys

The following guidelines will help you to configure enhanced feature keys (EFKs) efficiently:
●
Activation of EFK functions requires valid macro construction.
●
All failures are logged at level 4 (minor).
●
If two macros have the same name, the first one will be used and the subsequent ones will be
ignored.
A sequence of characters prefixed with "!" are parsed as a macro name. The exception is the speed
●
dial reference, which starts with "!" and contains digits only.
A sequence of characters prefixed with "^" is the action string.
●
"'!" and "^" macro prefixes cannot be mixed in the same macro line.
●
The sequence of characters must be prefixed by either "!" or "^" so it will be processed as an
●
enhanced feature key. All macro references and action strings added to the local directory contact
field must be prefixed by either "!" or "^".
Action strings used in soft key definitions do not need to be prefixed by "^". However, the "!" prefix
●
must be used if macros or speed dials are referenced.
A sequence of macro names in the same macro is supported (for example, "!m1!m2" ).
●
A sequence of speed dial references is supported (for example, "!1!2" ).
●
A sequence of macro names and speed dial references is supported (for example, "!m1!2!m2" ).
●
Macro names that appear in the local contact directory must follow the format "!<macro name>" ,
●
where <macro name> must match an <elklist> mname entry. The maximum macro length is 100
characters.
●
A sequence of macros is supported, but cannot be mixed with other action types.
Action strings that appear in the local contact directory must follow the format "^<action string>".
●
Action strings can reference other macros or speed dial indexes. Protection against recursive
macro calls exists (the enhanced feature keys fails once you reach 50 macro substitutions).
