System Speed Dial Numbers
Description
This feature lets you program a list of up to 100 frequently-dialed numbers for the
system. Anyone on the system can dial a System Speed Dial number by pressing
f (or # at intercom dial tone on a standard phone) and the three-digit code
from 600 through 699. You can
mark
System Speed Dial numbers to override
dialing restrictions.

■ System Speed Dialing, which lets users dial a number by pressing four
buttons, is different from Auto Dialing, which lets users dial a number by
pressing a single button.
■ For instructions on entering special characters (such as Pause) in a
number, see Special Dialing Functions.
■ Individuals can have up to 20 additional Personal Speed Dial Numbers for
use on their own phones.
■ A System Speed Dial number can begin with a star code; the system
automatically inserts a delay based on the Star Code Dial Delay (#410)
setting. To program, enter a Pause followed by the star code and the phone
number. (For example, press
h*675551001.)

■ If the system is connected to a PBX or Centrex system and a dial-out code
(usually 9) is needed to place calls outside the PBX or Centrex system,
include the dial-out code and one or more pauses (if available) in Speed
Dial numbers that must dial out of the PBX or Centrex system.
