Onyx VSi System Speed Dial

2. Features
Speed Dial
Speed Dial gives you quick access to frequently called numbers. There are two
types of Speed Dial: Personal and System. Each Speed Dial number can be up
to 16 digits long. Using either Personal or System Speed Dial numbers, you
can chain (link) two numbers to access longer numbers (up to 32 digits).
Personal Speed Dial/One-Touch Speed Dial
Your phone has 4 available feature keys programmable for One-Touch Speed
Dial. Just press these One-Touch Speed Dial keys to dial the stored number. In
addition, you can dial a bin number to access your Personal Speed Dial
Numbers. You have a total of 20 bins in which you can store numbers (bin 50-
59 and 20-29). Certain Intercom features can also be stored under your One-
Touch Speed Dial keys (this must be set in system programming). This simpli-
fies accessing features that you use often. Just press the One-Touch Speed Dial
key to use the key’s programmed feature. You can store any feature that uses
the digits 0-9, #, and *.
Note: The Feature keys are also your line/loop keys. A Feature key can only
have one function - either as a line or loop key or as a One-Touch Speed
Dial key.
Storing Names
Optionally, you can store a name with each Personal Speed Dial number. The
name displays on your telephone as the number dials out.
Storing a Pause or Flash
You can store a Pause in a Personal or System Speed Dial bin by pressing
HOLD where you want the Pause to occur. When you use the stored number,
the system stops dialing when it encounters the pause and waits for a second
dial tone. If the second dial tone occurs, dialing continues. You might want to
use a Pause if your Speed Dial number calls a dial-up service (like a banking
service) that automatically returns second dial tone. The pause ensures that
your number doesn’t dial out too soon. (If you don’t get second dial tone, you
can always dial * to force the remaining digits to dial out.) No character will
display when programming the number, but when the Speed Dial number is
dialed, a Pause will occur.
You can also store a Flash command in a Personal or System Speed Dial bin.
You might want to do this if your system is behind a Centrex or PBX and you
need to use certain Centrex or PBX features. For example, a Flash command
frequently initiates a PBX Transfer. To enter the Flash command while pro-
gramming the Speed Dial bin, press FLASH where you want the Flash to
occur. No character will display when programming the number, but when the
Speed Dial number is dialed, a Flash will occur.
