Pause in Speed Dial
You can use Speed Dial to reach destinations that require a Forced Authorization Code (FAC), Client Matter
Code (CMC), dialing pauses, or additional digits (such as a user extension, a meeting access code, or a voice
mail password). When you press the configured Speed Dial, the phone establishes the call to the destination
number and sends the specified FAC, CMC, and additional digits with dialing pauses inserted.
To include dialing pauses in the speed dial, include a comma (,) as part of the speed-dial string. This comma
specifies a pause of 2 seconds. It also allows you to separate FAC and CMC from the other digits in the
speed-dial string.
