FOR YOUR INFORMATION

Types of Numbers

When you store a number as a One-Touch or as a Speed-Dial number, you have a choice of choosing the type of number. There are 4 options:

1.FAX (A fax number).

2.TEL (A telephone number).

3.F/T (Both a fax number and a telephone number)

4.CHAIN (A number, usually an access code, for chain dialing).

Chain Dialing

Chaindialingisusedtostoreaverylongdialingsequence.Youcanspread the number over two or more keys if you register the first key(s) in the sequence as type “Chain”. Chain tells the system that the dialing sequence is not completed and that there is more to follow. The last key in the sequence must be any other dial type (either FAX, TEL or F/T). You can use any combination of One-Touch, Speed-Dial and manually dialed numbers in a chain.
