Lucent Technologies 4.1 User Manual

This Telephone Programming procedure lets system phone users dial outside
numbers, extension numbers, feature codes, or account codes with a single

touch, by pressing a programmed button. If an extension number is stored on
an Auto Dial button, the user can dial, signal, or transfer calls to the extension

by pressing the button. An Auto Dial number can be stored on any
programmable button (a button with no line or pool assigned) on a system
phone.

You can use the Auto Dial button instead of dialing the two-digit extension
number required for these features: Call Coverage, Call Forwarding/Call
Follow-Me, Call Park, Message Light On, Message Light Off, Station
Unlock, and Voice Mailbox Transfer.

To set up a Fax Management button, program the fax extension number on
an Auto Dial button with lights. Special light patterns on the Auto Dial button
for the fax extension indicate fax machine status. Chapter 4 provides more
information on using a Fax Management button. Identify fax extensions
using Fax Machine Extensions (#601).

You can include special functions, such as a Pause, in the Auto Dial number
(see Special Dialing Functions  for more information).

If you program an extension number on a button with lights, the lights show
calling activity at the extension (see “Lights” in Chapter 3).

You can connect an Intercom Autodialer to the system phones at extension

10 and 11 to have Auto Dial buttons for all of the extensions in your system.

Each user can have only one Auto Dial button—either on the system phone
or on the Intercom Autodialer—for another extension in the system. That
button can be programmed for intercom ringing, intercom voice signaling,
or manual signaling.

When programming emergency numbers for Auto Dialing and/or making
test calls to those numbers, you should: 1) Remain on the line and briefly

explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call before hanging up and 2)
Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early morning or late
evening.

Auto Dial buttons do not override dialing restrictions for an extension.

PARTNER-6, MDC 9000, and MDW 9000 system phones have only four
buttons available for lines, pools, and/or Auto Dial numbers.
