8.4 Entering Account Codes

If your installer has arranged your system for account code entry to enhance the SMDA reports, you may be told to enter an account code before calling a number or after answering one. Code entry is either forced or voluntary. If the codes are forced, you must enter the account code to place a call; if the codes are voluntary, the call will still go through if you do not enter a code (pre-programmed Emergency numbers will automatically go through even with forced account codes).

NOTE: You can program a button on your telephone that will make the account code entry process quicker if you wish. Refer to the programming section of this user’s guide for details.
