Setting Up Personal Speed Dialing
Your telephone provides several ways to assign and use personal speed 
dialing. The most efficient way is to assign frequently called numbers to your 
phone’s one-touch or soft keys. 
						

							2. Setting Up Your PhoneDBS-32-755 Issued April 2000  27Note:  
Non-display and small-display phones have 10 one-touch keys, which 
are located alongside the PROG
 and CONF
 keys on non-display and small-
display phones. Large-display phones have 10 “soft” keys instead of one-
touch keys. Soft keys are located along each side of the display. 
One-touch and soft keys are numbered as follows:
Figure 13.  One-touch key numbering scheme - Small and Non-Display phones
Figure 14.  Soft key numbering scheme - Large-Display phones
One-touch and soft keys are pre-programmed to correspond to specific PSD 
codes or bins. You store your personal speed dial numbers in these bins. 
When you press a one-touch or soft key containing a personal speed dial 
number, the PSD bin associated with that key is accessed and the speed dial 
number is dialed.
Note:  
All systems allow at least ten Personal Speed Dials (PSDs), with some 
systems allowing up to 40 PSDs. Your system administrator or DBS dealer 
can tell you which type of system you have.
PSD bins are numbered from either 90 to 99 or 900 to 909 for ten PSD 
systems (depending on your system configuration). On 40 PSD systems, the 
PSD bins are numbered from 900 to 939.

 28 Issued April 2000 DBS-32-755For example:
Note:  
The PSD bin for each one-touch or soft key appears on the display 
when the phone is in Personal Speed Dial mode. On large-display phones, 
either 5 or 10 bins are displayed at a time, depending on how your extension is 
programmed. You can display the next group of bins by pressing the “NEXT” 
key, or the previous group by pressing the “PREV” key.
On small-display phones, two bins are displayed at a time. Press the “#” key 
to display the next two bins and the “*” key to display the previous two bins.Assigning PSD Numbers to One-Touch or Soft Keys
