Advanced Call Handling

Advanced call-handling tasks involve special features that your system administrator might configure for your phone depending on your call-handling needs and work environment.

Speed Dialing

Speed dialing allows you to enter an index number, press a button, or select a phone screen item to place a call. Depending on configuration, your phone can support several speed-dial features:

Speed-dial buttons

Abbreviated Dialing

Fast Dials

Note

To set up speed-dial buttons and Abbreviated Dial, you must access your User Options

 

 

web pages. See “Accessing Your User Options Web Pages” section on page 52.

 

To set up Fast Dials, you must access the Personal Directory feature. See “Using Personal

 

 

Directory on Your Phone” section on page 48.

 

Alternately, your system administrator can configure speed-dial features for you.
