Number guessing
When you have typed the minimum number of characters you have specified for this function, the
phone will look for numbers containing that string of characters in its call lists and directories and, if it
finds matches, show the number(s) on the display. If the number proposed on the display is the one
you wish to dial, press ; if not, continue entering digits.

The default setting is off. Changing the setting:
1. Open the phone's web interface, Advanced > Behavior tab.
2. In the section "Phone Behavior", click the radio button "on" of the item "Number Guessing".
3. In the text field of "Number Guessing Minimum Length", type the minimum number of digits that
must be entered before the phone starts presenting numbers.
4. Click on "Apply" and "Save".
Speed dial
You can use the numbers 0 to 30 and the special characters # and * to speed dial frequently and/or
long numbers without having to enter the complete phone number. The numbers must be set on the
phone's web interface first:
1. Open the phone's web interface, "Speed Dial".
2. Enter one phone number with any required prefixes (area code, country code, operator/auto
attendant, etc.) in the text field for each respective number or special character.
Note: Type each phone number without spaces or punctuation between the digits.
Example: You want to be able to speed dial the phone number 555-1784 in area code 917 by
pressing
1
on the alphanumeric keypad. In conventional notation you might write the number
down as (917) 555-1784. In the speed dial table, type 9175551784 into the text field of the
number 1.
Note: If you want to add a name or other data before or after the number, type the number in
angled brackets <>. Example: Accounting <9175551784>.
3. Click on "Apply" and "Save". You can now speed dial the number by pressing
1
and on the
phone.
