Depending on the system option selected (see Programming below), users have dial access to either 9, 99 or 999 System Speed Dial bins.

Storing Line Routing in a Speed Dial Bin
When you program a Speed Dial bin, you can select either a line or a Line Group over which the call should route. For example, you can enter 1 for line 1 or 90 for Line Group 90.
❥If you enter a Line Group number, the system will follow the Line Group programming and select an available line in the group for the call.
❥If you enter a line number and the line is busy when the Speed Dial bin tries to dials out, the user hears busy tone. If their extension has Line Queuing, they can dial 2 to queue for a line to become free. If they hang up, the system converts the queue to a Line Callback.

Centrex Compatibility
Speed Dial offers unique compatibility with connected Centrex services. A Speed Dial number can accom- modate both placing a new call and outdialing the stored Speed Dial number on an active Centrex line. This enables features such as Centrex Transfer and Conference. Speed Dial adheres to the following rules.
1.When a user active on an outside call presses TRANSFER and selects a Speed Dial number (using any method), the system examines the contents of the stored Speed Dial bin.
2.If the first entry in the bin is an F (Flash command), the system flashes the connected line and outdials the contents of the bin (ignoring the line selection associated with the bin).
