Speed dial lists

[steyler]

Anyone know if it's possible to have more than one speed dial number assigned to a 7940? I'd actually like to setup a speed dial list but that doesn't appear to be possible.

if you go to the user web page you can add up to 100 speed dials. they wont appear on the phone due to physical key limitations, but the "abbreviated dial" feature can be utilized

to abbreviated dial you press the keypad digit(s) associated with the speed dial number while the phone is still on hook. when you press the digit you will get an "Abbrdial" soft key. You press that softkey and it will extend the call. Works well, but users with many speed dials configured will need to print or create a list for themself to reference and keep it nearby or posted near the phone. Kinda hard to remember 100 speed dial references!

also you can setup a personal directory service where users can have a directory of speed dials. Takes a bit more work but is much cleaner and lists all names and numbers.

Can you point me in the direction of the personal directory? Do you have a link? Thanks for you previous reply.

Personal Address Book is the actual name
its setup pretty much the same as any IP Phone Service you can run off of callmanager

To get to the user web page you can use the callmanager name/ccmuser. For example if your server's name is cm1 then the user page will be cm1/ccmuser, Once in there you can configure speed dials.

Thanks
