Entering Numbers and Text in Fields
Some fields on the IP phones require you to enter numbers and text by using the keypad or softkey
buttons. In general, the following guidelines apply:
•
Use the keypad to enter numbers and characters, pressing the key multiple times to select the
correct number or letter.
•
Press the number key multiple times to move to a different letter under that number. (For
example, to enter “Mary,” you would press 6 five times rapidly and then pause (for M); press 2
and then pause (for a), press 7 three times rapidly (for r), then press 9 three times rapidly (for y).
