Operational Features

Speeddial Prefixes

The normal function of the Speeddial option allows you to configure a specific key on the phone to dial a number quickly by pressing the configured key. For example, if you had the following Speeddial configuration in the configura- tion files:

softkey1 type: speeddial

softkey1 label: Office

softkey1 value: 5552345

softkey1 line: 1

after you press softkey1 on the phone, it dials the Office number at 555-2345 on line 1.

A new feature for the Speeddial option allows you to configure a preset string of numbers followed by a “+”. This feature allows the phone to speeddial a prefix number and then pause to let you enter the remaining phone number. You can use this feature for numbers that contain long prefixes. For example, if you had the following Speeddial configuration in the configuration files:

softkey2 type: speeddial

softkey2 label: Europe Office

softkey2 value: 1234567+

softkey2 line: 2

after you press softkey2 on the phone, it dials the prefix number automatically and pauses for you to enter the remaining number using the keypad on the phone.

You can configure the Speeddial prefix using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

Enabling/Disabling Ability to Add or Edit a Speeddial Key

The IP Phones allow you to set a parameter, “speeddial edit” using the configuration files that allows you to enable or disable the ability to add a Speeddial key or edit a Speeddial key from the IP Phone UI. Disabling this parameter prevents a user from adding or editing a Speeddial key.

The default for this parameter is enabled, allowing you to create and edit Speeddial keys on the phone using the Press- and-hold feature, softkeys, programmable keys, expansion module keys and key pad, Speeddial menu in the IP Phone UI, and the SAVE TO key.

If this parameter is set to disabled, it blocks the user from using any of the features on the phone to create or edit a Speeddial key.

Enabling/Disabling the Ability to Add or Edit a Speeddial Key Using the Configuration Files

Use the following procedure to enable/disable the ability to add and edit a Speeddial key.

Configuration Files

For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “” on page A-191.
