Special Dialing Functions

Description

This feature lets you add special characters for System Speed Dial numbers, Personal Speed Dial numbers, and Auto Dial numbers, as follows:

Function	Button	Display	Description
Pause	[ Hold ]	P	Inserts a 1.5-second pause in the dialing
			sequence to wait for a response, such as a
			dial tone or computer voice message.
Recall	[ Spkr ]	R	Sends a timed switchhook flash needed to
			alert the system on the other end (such as a
			PBX or Centrex system), and to use some
			local telephone company custom calling
			features (such as Call Waiting). Use Recall
			only as the first entry in an Auto Dial or
			Speed Dial number.
Stop	[ Mic/HFAI ]	S	Stops the dialing sequence until the Auto
			Dial button or Speed Dial number is used
			again (for example, so the user can enter
			additional digits, such as a credit card
			number or password). To continue, press
			the Auto Dial button or [ Feature ] and the two- or
			three-digit speed dial code. (Stop cannot be
			programmed from an MDC 9000 or MDW
			9000 phone, since it has no [ Mic/HFAI ] button.)
Touch-Tone	[ Transfr ]	T	Sends touch tones over a rotary line to
Enable			electronic equipment such as answering
			machines and bank computers.

Considerations

Special characters cannot be used when dialing a number manually.

Examples

■Pause. To call an answering machine at 555-0529, wait 4.5 seconds, then

dial 321 to retrieve messages, enter [ 5 ] [ 5 ] [ 5 ] [ 0 ] [ 5 ] [ 2 ] [ 9 ] [ Hold ] [ Hold ] [ Hold ] [ 3 ] [ 2 ] [ 1 ].

■Recall/Centrex Feature Button. The following entry shows how to program an Auto Dial button with a Centrex feature that you use while on a call, for which the feature access code is *32. This example includes a Recall signal to send a switchhook flash to the Centrex system when you are already on a call. (You can store a Recall signal by pressing [ Spkr ], but only if it is the first character stored.) It also includes a 1.5-second pause (which you insert by pressing [ Hold ]) to allow time to get a new Centrex dial tone: [ Spkr ] [ Hold ] [ ★ ] [ 3 ] [ 2 ].
