System Directory listings are established and changed only through system programming by using the Labeling feature. Each listing consists of a 3-digit Speed Dial number, an 11-character name field, and a 40-digit number field. Up to 130 listings are stored. Any listing can be specifically designated to suppress the display of a confidential number. When dialing a number designated or marked in this way, users see only the System Speed Dial code associated with the listing. A marked System Speed Dial code can be identified in the System Directory report by an asterisk preceding the telephone number.

When a marked System Speed Dial code is used to dial a number, any calling restrictions associated with that number (such as outward or Toll Restrictions) are overridden. Marked System Speed Dial does not override ARS restrictions.

Special characters may be needed during programming of System Speed Dial codes. Each of these characters counts as one of the 40 digits allowed in the telephone number. For information about special characters and their meanings, see Appendix H, Programming Special Characters.

Access the System Directory by lifting the handset or pressing the Speaker button, pressing the Feature button, and dialing a 3-digit System Speed Dial code. On the 4400, 4400D+, 4406D+, 4412D+, and 4424D+ telephones, lift the handset or press the Spkr button and dial the 3-digit System Speed Dial code. If the System Speed Dial code is associated with a telephone number that begins with a dial-out code (usually 9), you must use an SA or ICOM button. If the associated telephone number does not begin with a dial-out code, you must use an Outside Line button.
