7.2 Using the Local Contacts
You can store up to 500 phone numbers in the handset/desk phone along with names for
easy access. You can also set unique ringer patterns for different categories to identify
incoming calls. All Contacts items are stored in alphabetical order. For security purposes,
you can lock the Contacts.
• To search for an item in the Contacts, see 7.2.5 Searching for an Item in the Local
Contacts, page 91.
• To refer to another contacts that can contain more than 500 items, see 7.4 Using the
Remote Contacts (when connected to the KX-TGP600 only), page 97, 7.5 Using the
Shared Contacts (when connected to the KX-TGP700 only), page 98.
Note
• We recommend that backups are made of the handset and desk phone contacts
data, in case the data becomes unrecoverable due to product malfunction.
• A single entry (i.e., name) can have multiple phone numbers. Since the contacts
capacity is limited by the number of stored phone numbers, storing multiple phone
numbers in an entry decreases the maximum number of entries.
• In addition, if your phone service provider supports the following contacts data, you
can download it via the network.
In a name that exceeds 24 characters, the exceeding characters will be deleted.
Phone numbers that exceed 32 digits are invalid.
7.2.1 Private Ring
You can organize entries in the Contacts into one of 9 Private Ring Categories. It is
possible to set a different ringer pattern
*1
for each category.
