Select the type of functionality from the drop-down list. If you select "Key Event", a drop-down
list with the available key events will replace the text field under "Number". The default setting is
"line".
◦ Number
Enter one phone number or value for the function or, if the function is key event, select an event
from the drop-down list. Enter phone numbers exactly the way they need to be dialed, i.e, type
the number without spaces or punctuation marks between the digits. For example, a number
with an area code that might conventionally be notated as (916) 555-1234 should be entered
as 9165551234.
