Programming Speed Dialing Codes

You

can

program telephone numbers, account codes, and

System Speed Dialing codes into your Personal Speed Dialing
codes. System 25 allows you to program strings of numbers and
special characters (maximum of 25 characters) into the dialing
codes.

The first part of this entry describes, with examples, how to use
special characters when programming. The remaining part of
this entry describes how to actually program or remove Personal
Speed Dialing codes.

Special Characters

You may need to use the “*” and the “ #” when you program
numbers. The “*” is used as either a 1.5 second pause or as an
actual character. The “#” may be used at the beginning of end-
to-end signaling, at the beginning of a Speed Dialing code, or as
an actual character.

Using * as a Pause

A "*" by itself will produce a 1.5 second pause. For example,

you may want to program a pause between the outside line
access code and the telephone number.

You program: 9*5557023
This means:

9 (1.5 second pause) 555-7023

Using * as a Character

If you want to use the “*” as a
before the “*”.

For example, you may want to
