							8.3 Sending Response Messages
By programming one or moreRESPONSE MESSAGEbuttons on your
LCD speakerphone, you can respond with a variety of messages to many
calling situations. For example, if you call another station and receive a
busy signal or no answer, you can send one of 30 system-supplied
messages, or you can send the same message each time the situation
arises. Further, you may at times receive intercom or SOHVA calls that
you decide not to answer, and you can send a message to the display of
the calling LCD speakerphone for the caller to read.
If you program a scrollingRESPONSE MESSAGEbutton at your
telephone, you may use it to scroll through and select any of the system’s
messages to send, allowing you to send a different message every time.
If you program a fixedRESPONSE MESSAGEbutton, you can send
the same message every time in response to a situation, which saves you
the trouble of scrolling to the message you want to send.
This section tells you how to use theRESPONSE MESSAGEbutton(s)
to send messages to other LCD speakerphones. Refer to section 10.1 for
instructions on programming theRESPONSE MESSAGEbutton(s).
·To send an LCD message when you call and receive busy signal
or no answer,
1. While still on the call, press the appropriate fixedRESPONSE
MESSAGEbutton to send a preselected message (Call [your
name], for example) to the other telephone,
—OR—
while still on the call, press the scrollingRESPONSE MESSAGE
button to scroll through the system-supplied messages.
2. Press#when your display shows the message you wish to send
(the message will then be displayed at the called telephone).
NOTE: For the example in step 1, you would use default message 2.
Your name would then be added from the station name
programming done by the installer.

9.1 Programming For Speed Dialing
Speed dialing is a feature that lets you:
•store and dial lengthy numbers using one or two buttons,
•store and dial intercom numbers of frequently called telephones,
•store frequently used feature codes.
You can store numbers for speed dialing at the following locations:
•at any programmable button that isnot now assigned as a line button
or other featureby the system administrator or installer,
•at the keypad numbers 0–9 (primary level only),
•on a secondary level at any of the programmable button locations.
Before you begin programming, write down the intercom or outside line
you will use and the number digits that you are storing. Then, as you
program the speed dial numbers, write the first and second level numbers
on your telephone’s ID strips. You can also fill out the charts on the next
page, if you wish, for a personal record of your stored numbers.
NOTE: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires
that when programming emergency numbers and(or) making
test calls to emergency numbers:
1. Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the
reason for the call;
2. Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early
morning or late evening.
