Konica Minolta 7013 manual Autodialer basics

Autodialer

Your fax machine’s autodialer stores your most frequently called phone and fax numbers for instant recall so you don’t have to remember them. It’s something like an electronic phone book.

Autodialer basics

How do you autodial?

There are two kinds of autodialer numbers. The difference between the two is how you dial them:

Type	How to dial	Amount stored
One-touch	Press one of the keys, marked 01–55	55
	on the left side of the control panel
Speed-dial	Press SPEED DIAL/TEL INDEX followed by a	145
	three-digit identifier, from 001 to 145
Total amount of numbers stored		200

Location IDs and the Telephone Index dialing

When you store numbers in your autodialer, you can give these numbers descriptive names, such as “Chicago office” or “Billing department”. Your machine calls this name a Location ID.

Your machine’s autodialer sorts these location IDs alphabetically. Using your Telephone Index dialing, you can look up these numbers by their descriptive names, just as if you were using a phone book.

We’ll explain how to store the numbers and location IDs in the next few pages. The Telephone Index dialing is discussed in detail on page 3.8.

Call groups

As you set up your autodialer, you may also want to set up call groups. These are sets of phone numbers that make it easy to send the same fax to many different loca- tions. For example, one call group may include all of your clients in one city, another group may include all of your employees and another may include all your vendors.

Your fax machine can store as many as 200 numbers in up to 32 call groups. See also “Call group dialing,” page 3.7.

Special Dialing Characters

Your fax machine allows you to enter special dialing characters when programming the autodialer. These characters include hyphens, which make phone numbers eas- ier to read, and special characters needed for international calls.

The chart below briefly describes each of these characters. It also tells you what keys to press on your fax machine to store those characters in your autodialer:

Note: To use the DIALING OPTIONS or REDIAL/PAUSE key, you should assign it to a Soft key in advance. (See page 3.16.)

Char.	What it does	Keystroke(s)
	Enters a pause. Each pause lasts two	REDIAL/PAUSE
	seconds (or whatever length you set; see

	characters you can store in one phone
	number.

	the actual phone number but before any	DIALING OPTIONS (4 times)
	characters (such as a long-distance
	carrier’s access code) which must be in
	DTMF tone. Do not use on a tone line.
