Auto Dialing

Description

Auto Dial buttons can be programmed only on system phones.

This Telephone Programming procedure lets system phone users dial outside

numbers, extension numbers, feature codes, or account codes with a single

touch, by pressing a programmed button. If an extension number is stored on

an Auto Dial button, the user can dial, signal, or transfer calls to the extension

by pressing the button. An Auto Dial number can be stored on any

programmable button (a button with no line assigned) on a system phone.

Related Features

■

You can use the Auto Dial button instead of dialing the two-digit extension

number required for these features: Call Forwarding/Call Follow-Me, Call

Park, Message Light On, Message Light Off, Station Unlock, and Voice

Mailbox Transfer.

To set up a Fax Management button, program the fax extension number on

an Auto Dial button with lights. Special light patterns on the Auto Dial button

for the fax extension indicate fax machine status. Chapter 4 provides more

information on using a Fax Management button. Identify fax extensions

using Fax Machine Extensions (#601).

You can include special functions, such as a Pause, in the Auto Dial

number. See Special Dialing Functions for more information.

Considerations

■

If you program an extension number on a button with lights, the lights show

calling activity at the extension (see “Lights” in Chapter 3).

You can connect an Intercom Autodialer to the system phones at extension

10 and 11 to have Auto Dial buttons for all of the extensions in your system.

Each user can have only one Auto Dial button—either on the system phone

or on the Intercom Autodialer—for another extension in the system. That

button can be programmed for intercom ringing, intercom voice signaling,

or manual signaling.

When programming emergency numbers for Auto Dialing and/or making

test calls to those numbers, you should: 1) Remain on the line and briefly

explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call before hanging up and 2)

Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early morning or late

evening.

Auto Dial buttons do not override dialing restrictions for an extension.

PARTNER-6, MDC 9000, and MDW 9000 system phones have only four

buttons available for lines and/or Auto Dial numbers.
