Abbreviated Dialing
Note: Before you can use this feature, AD buttons must first be assigned by your system manager. (These AD locations can be assigned to actual buttons, or you may be able to access them with the softkeys.)
If you hear the intercept tone while programming, start over from the beginning.
You may be able to use the following softkey features with Abbreviated Dialing (Press <Menu> and then the softkey below the feature abbreviation):
•Program (labeled Prog) - You can program a telephone number, extension, or feature access code on an AD button.
•Pause (labeled Pause) - A
•Mark (labeled Mark) - Numbers included after a Mark on an AD button are dialed in
•Wait (labeled Wait) - Numbers included after a Wait on an AD button are delayed 5 to 25 seconds until the telephone receives dial tone from the switch.
•Suppress (labeled Spres) - Suppressed numbers are dialed but not shown on the display (an “s” appears instead). Used for passwords or authorization codes.
