Creating a Speeddial Key
The normal function of the speeddial option allows you to dial a number
quickly by pressing a configured speeddial programmable key or keypad
key. You can program the keys on the 6730i IP Phone to speeddial outside
numbers, dial directly to another person’s line or extension, or set up to
quickly access features such as Caller ID (*69), Voicemail.
Note: You can use a speeddial key while on an active call by placing the active call on
hold first, and then pressing the speeddial key.
Speeddial Prefix
The speeddial feature also allows you to specify a preset string of numbers
followed by a “+” that the phone dials automatically after pressing the
speeddial key. You can use this feature for numbers that contain long
prefixes.
For example, if you had the following speeddial configuration in the Aastra
Web UI:
Key 1
Type=speeddial
Label=Europe Office
Value=
Line=2
then, after you press key 1 on the phone, the prefix number displays on the
phone screen. The phone proceeds to dial the prefix number automatically
and pauses for you to enter the remaining phone number using the keypad
on the phone.
You can save up to 7 speeddial numbers on the 6730i IP Phone.
You can create speeddial keys using any of the following methods:
• Using the Aastra Web UI at the paths:
-
Operation->Softkeys and XML
-
Operation->Programmable Keys
-
Operation->Speeddial Keys
• Using the IP Phone UI at the path,
Options->Preferences->Speeddial Edit
• By pressing and holding a programmable or keypad key.
