Creating Speeddial Keys

The normal function of a speeddial option allows you to dial a number quickly by pressing a key
configured for speeddialing. You can program the keys on the keyapd of the 6751i to speeddial
outside numbers, dial directly to another person’s line or extension, or set up to quickly access
features such as Caller ID (*69), Voicemail.

On the 6751i, the speeddial function can be set using the IP Phone keyapd directly, or using the
Aastra Web UI to setup the speeddial key.

Speeddial Prefix

The speeddial feature also allows you to specify a preset string of numbers followed by a “+”
that the phone dials automatically after pressing the speeddial key. You can use this feature for
numbers that contain long prefixes.

For example, if you set the following speeddial configuration:

Digit 1

1234567+

then, after you press Digit 1 on the keypad, the prefix number displays on the phone screen. The
phone proceeds to dial the prefix number automatically and pauses for you to enter the
remaining phone number using the keypad on the phone.

You can save up to 7 speeddial numbers on the 6751i.

Use the following procedures to set speeddial on the 6751i IP phone.
