Creating a Speed Dial Key

The normal function of the speed dial option allows you to dial a number quickly by pressing a key configured for speed dialing. You can program the keys on the 6865i to speed dial outside numbers, dial directly to another person’s line or extension, or set it up to quickly access features such as Caller ID (*69) and voicemail.

The speed dial function can be set using the IP phone UI or the Aastra Web UI.

Note:

You can use a speed dial key while on an active call by placing the active call on hold first, and then pressing the speed dial key.

You can create speed dial keys using any of the following methods:

Using the Aastra Web UI at the paths:

Operation > Programmable Keys

Operation > Keypad Speed Dial

By pressing and holding a programmable key or keypad key

Using the IP phone UI at the path:

Options > Preferences > Speed Dial Edit

Speed Dial Prefix

The speed dial feature also allows you to specify a preset string of numbers followed by a + that the phone dials auto- matically after pressing the speed dial key. You can use this feature for numbers that contain long prefixes.

For example, if you had the following speed dial configuration in the Aastra Web UI:

Key 1

Type: Speeddial

Value: 1234567+

Line: 2

Then, after you press key 1 on the phone, the prefix number displays on the phone screen. The phone proceeds to dial the prefix number automatically and pauses for you to enter the remaining phone number using the keypad on the phone.

Use the following procedures to set speed dial on the 6865i IP phone.
