Chapter 3: Using the Speed Dial Application

Introduction

This chapter describes how to add, update, and delete a Speed Dial button label. Up to 108 Speed Dial buttons are allowed, each containing a name and corresponding telephone number.

Entering Data on Speed Dial Screens

Review this section if you are unfamiliar with entering data using a telephone dialpad or using softkeys for editing functions.

Entering Characters Using the Dialpad

Use the dialpad keys 0 through 9, * and # to enter characters in a Name or Number field. To select a field, press the Line/Feature button on either side of the field to which you want to move.

When entering a name, the first press of a dialpad key displays the first alphabetic character associated with that key to the right of the current cursor position. This character is shown in upper case and the cursor does not move. A subsequent press of the same key replaces the character shown with the next alphabetic character assigned to that key (still in upper case), or the number assigned to that key, if all three alphabetic characters have been displayed.

For example, pressing the “2” on your dialpad displays the letter “A.” Pressing the 2 key again replaces the A with a “B,” pressing it again replaces the B with a “C” and pressing it again replaces the C with a “2.” Pressing it again redisplays the letter “A,” and so on. Pressing a different key moves the cursor one position to the right, displaying the first alphabetic character associated with that key. All letters after the first display by default in lower case. Repeat this key press/entry process to enter the rest of the party’s name. In addition, you can use the

Left Arrow ( ) and Right Arrow ( ) softkeys to move the cursor to the left or right, respectively.

When entering a telephone number in the Number field, your 4620 IP Telephone recognizes a key press as a number (or typographic character such as * or #) and automatically moves the cursor to the right.

Note:

You can enter text while on a call, but you automatically exit text entry mode if you go off-hook (either by the headset/handset or by a fixed button like Transfer). You also exit text entry mode if you cause another screen to display (for example,

by pressing Save or Cancel, or pressing the button).
