Outside Auto Dial

DESCRIPTION

CONSIDERATIONS

You can use the Outside Auto Dial feature to dial frequently used numbers and codes with one touch. These numbers and codes can include telephone numbers, account numbers, and PBX, Centrex, or Custom Calling feature codes.

Whenever instructions tell you to dial an outside number, you can touch an Outside Auto Dial button instead.

If your system uses account numbers on printed call reports, you can

program frequently dialed account numbers on Outside Auto Dial buttons. Then while you have a call in progress for which you need to dial an account code, you can dial the code with one touch.

You can include up to 16 digits and special characters in an Outside Auto Dial number.

You may need to program a pause, stop, or switchhook flash into an Outside Auto Dial sequence, or you may need to switch from rotary to Touch-Tone signals in the middle of a programmed dialing sequence. To do so, you must enter the following special characters when you program the sequence. (For more information about using special characters in a dialing sequence, see “Special Characters in Programmed Dialing Sequences. ” )

To program a pause, touch Hold.

To program a stop, touch Drop.

To program a switchhook flash at the beginning of a programmed dialing sequence, touch Recall and then touch Hold.

To program Touch-Tone Enable, touch Transfer.

If your system is set up for Dial Access to Line Pools, a programmed

 

Outside Auto Dial button number must include a Pool Access code and

 

two pauses before the telephone number. For example, to program an

 

Outside Auto Dial button in a system in which you usually dial the access

 

code 891 before you dial an in-state telephone number, you would dial the

 

Pool Access code, 891, touch Hold twice, and then dial the 7-digit

 

telephone number.

PROGRAMMING

To program an Outside Auto Dial button for your voice terminal, label a

 

button and proceed as follows:

 

1 Enter programming mode.

 

2 Touch the button you want to program.

 

3 Dial *90 and, if required, a Pool Access number and two pauses (touch

 

Hold twice) plus a telephone number or a PBX or Centrex code (if you

 

need to include one or more special characters in the dialing sequence, use

 

the directions under “Considerations” )

 

4 Leave programming mode.
