Programming Macros
If you frequently perform a console task that requires several keystrokes,
you can automate the task using a macro. A macro is a series of
keystrokes that you assign to a single key. Instead of repeating the
keystrokes each time you want to perform a task, you can press the macro
key to execute all the keystrokes at once.
Macros are designed to facilitate the transfer of calls to voice mail or for
recovering calls released to the wrong extension. You can also use macro
keys for one-button dialing of frequently called telephone numbers;
programming macros for other uses is not recommended.
The unlabelled key on the console (circled in the illustration below) is
available for programming as a macro key. You can also reprogram the
Trunk Group and Set Page keys and use them as macro keys instead.
