Using Programmable Buttons
For quick access, you can assign feature codes, extensions, speed-dial numbers, trunks, or
other resources to your programmable buttons. You can then press the programmed buttons to
activate features or place calls. See “Default Access Codes“ and “Default Feature Codes” on
page 17 for code lists. You cannot reprogram the default button assignments. See
“Programmable Buttons” on page 5.
To program a button:
1. With the handset on-hook, dial 397.
2. Press the button that you want to program. If the button is:
• not programmed, UNDEFINED KEY appears.
• programmed, the feature or extension programmed for the button appears.
• not programmable, NON-PROGRAMMABLE KEY appears.
3. Enter the feature code, extension number, station speed-dial number, or system speed-
dial number to be assigned to the button. To assign speed-dial numbers to
programmable buttons, see “Assigning Speed-Dial Numbers to Programmable Buttons”
on page 28
After you program a button, you can:
• Press the button to place a call to the assigned extension.
• Press the button to access a system feature.
• Press the button and then hang up to transfer a call to the assigned extension. If the call is
transferred to voice mail you hear repeating double tones.
• Visually monitor the call activity of the assigned extension if the button you assign has a
lamp.
The following table describes the lamp signals and the indicated call activity for a DSS/BLF key
(station speed-dials do not show status).
Additional Programmable Buttons
You can also use the Programmable Key Modules (PKM) to add additional programmable
buttons to your telephone. You can program buttons the same way as those on the associated
telephone as described earlier in this section. Contact your system administrator for details.
NOTE
Before or after assigning the speed-dial number to a programmable button,
make sure the speed-dial number has either a Station Speed Dial bin or
System Speed Dial location assigned to it. For System Speed Dial numbers,
numbers are pre-assigned to the System Speed Dial locations (000 to 999
or 0000 to 4999) by your system administrator. Therefore, you just need to
choose a System Speed Dial location that you want to use (see “Using
System Speed Dial” on page 27 for details). For Station Speed Dial
numbers, you must manually store numbers in the Station Speed Dial bins
(0 to 9). See “Storing Station Speed-Dial Numbers” on page 27.
