MEMORY DIALING

MEMORY DIALING

The VT2900 is capable of two modes of memory dialing. You can dial out by pressing the memory location (e.g.

15)or by entering the person's name (e.g. "BOB). We suggest that numbers be stored with the person's nameto which the number belongs.

When dialing out you can use either the person'sname or the memory location. Use the MEM key to toggle betweenNAME dialingand LOCATION dialing. When you accessthe memory dialing option the NAME indicator will be on to indicate the phone is in NAME dialing mode. If the symbol is off, the phone is in LOCATION dialing mode. Once you have selected a mode, the phone will stay in that mode until it is changed by the user.

Dialing using Location

If you wish to dial out the number stored in a particular memory location (e.g. 15) then do the following:

1.Press the LlNE key to get a dial tone.

2.Press MEM. Check that the NAME symbol is not on the display. If it is on, press MEM again.

3.Enter the memory location you wish to dial out. E.g. 15. The number stored at that location will be shown on the display

and will automatically be dialed out.

The number stored in this location will be dialed out.

You can also review the contents of the memory locations when you are not connected to a line. When the phone is OFF, press MEM and you can scroll through the* memory

locations by using the and # key. If you wish to dial out a number shown press a LINE key. The phone will exit MEMORY,mode and dial the number displayed. Otherwise, press OFF to exit MEMORY mode.

Storing

To program a MEMORY location, do the following:

With the phone in OFF mode, enter the telephone number you wish to store. (16 Digits Maximum).

Enter program mode by pressing and holding the MEMIPROG key. The PROG and MEM indicators will appear in the display.

Enter the memory location (00..19) you wish to store the number in. As soon as the second memory location digit is entered, the NAME indicator will turn on and 6 dashes will appear. If you do not wish to store a name with this number, simply press the MEM key. You should hear a "Happy Tone',if not the programming was in error, and you will needto repeat the process.

Enter a six character name to store with the number. Use the letters on the keypad. For a space, you can use the 1 key. Example: 'PEGGY 'would be entered by pressing 7,3,4,4,9,1 (P-E-G-G-Y-SPACE).Each dash will change to an under score as the letters are entered.

Press MEM to store and exit. A Happy tone will be generated if programming was successful. Otherwise, the unit will generate a sad tone and display:

NOTE: The name MUST have six characters. If the name you wish to enter has less than six characters, use the space symbol to fill in the rest or use part of the person'slast name.

If the name you wish to enter is longer than six characters,just put in the first six characters.

When you dial using NAME, you will usually not need to enter in all six characters. You will only need to enter in as many as needed for the handset to get a match.

For example, if you have stored 'GARY R' and 'GARY J' in the memory then you will need to enter in all six characters before the phone can distinguish which you want.

If you get Duplicate displayed during programming when you are entering the namethere may be severalcauses. Check:

1.You may be already using the same name.

2.There may be a name which is using the same number sequence. For example, 'JENNY'and 'KENNY'.

Enter another name and press MEM.
