The dialing modes feature code cannot be programmed onto a
memory button.
Using Standard dial
Standard dial allows you to make a call by selecting a line and
dialing the number. If you have a prime line, it is selected
automatically when you lift the receiver or press the button
labeled Handsfree/mute.
You cannot use Standard dial on an M7100 or a T7100 set
unless you pick up the receiver first. If you have this type of
set, use the Automatic dial or Pre-dial feature for on-hook
dialing.
Using Automatic dial
Automatic dial allows you to dial a number without selecting
a line. Your prime line is selected as soon as you start dialing
a number.
Automatic dial does not work if your telephone has no prime
line or if your prime line is in use.
Telephones connected to an analog terminal adapter (ATA)
cannot use Automatic dial.
Using Pre-dial
Pre-dial allows you to enter a telephone number, check it, then
change it before actually making the call. The call is not dialed
until you select a line or line pool, or pick up the receiver. You
can pre-dial both external and internal numbers. You must,
however, select the correct type of line (external or internal)
for the type of number you have entered. See the Tip on the
next page.
