The directory stores the list of the phone numbers and names. This section describes how to enter and 
save phone numbers and names into the directory. It includes the following sections:

The following sections show the soft key names for the SPA962 in parentheses ( ). 

To enter the Directory option, press the Setup button and then press the 1 button. Alternatively, you 
may press the Setup button and the Directory option is highlighted. Then press the select soft key. After 
pressing select, the menu displays New Entry and existing entries in the directory below. To add a New 
Entry, press the add button, (left soft key). To cancel, press the cancel soft key.

After pressing the add button, the menu shows the Name, Number, and Ring Default with the cursor 
flashing in the first character of the Name area. 

After pressing add, you are prompted to enter a Name. To enter a letter of a name, press the letter on 
the numeric keypad. 

For example, press 2, and the letter a appears. If the cursor is in the first letter of name, it is a capital 
letter. Every two seconds, the cursor flashes. If the 2 is NOT pressed again before the cursor flashes, the 
phone accepts the A as the entry and it moves to the next position. To obtain a different letter/number 
associated with the 2 (a, b, c, 2, A, B, C), press 2 again before the cursor flashes. The letters/numbers 
are displayed at the bottom of the screen and the letter/number that is entered is highlighted. 

The first letter in a directory name defaults to a capital letter and subsequent letters in the name defaults 
to lower case. After entering the last letter, scroll down. The cursor is moved to the Number field. Enter 
the telephone number associated with this name. When you are finished entering the number, scroll 
down. The cursor is moved to the Ring field. Enter the Ring type for this entry, and then press ok. The 
entry is saved in the directory.

Press the delChr soft key to correct a mistake. Each time the delChr soft key is pressed one letter from 
the entered string is removed from the display. Press clear to clear the whole string.

To enter a phone number into the directory, simply dial the number including the 1 and the Area Code 
(for example, 14085721111). 

Enter 9 first to call an outside line.

The same screen can be used to set the phone to a distinctive ring for each caller. To set the ring, move 
the cursor to the Ring Default area by pressing the down arrow button after entering the phone number 
instead of pressing save per above. Use the arrow button to scroll to and highlight the ring for this person 
and press the select soft key. When the entry is complete, press the save button (left soft key). After the 
information has been saved, the phone displays the directory with the name and number.
