If you assign a speed dial index number that is already taken, the

message “Speed dial index already exists” displays.
Contacts with a speed dial index number can be automatically

assigned to a Speed Dial Key for one-touch dialing. For more

information, see

“Managing Speed Dials”

on page 76.

(Optional.) Tap the Label field, and then enter a label for the contact.

You can enter a maximum of 32 symbols, letters, or numbers.
If you specify a label, the label will be the first item that displays for

the contact in the Contact Directory and on the Speed Dial

Information screen (before the contact’s first and last names, if

specified). The label will also display on the contact’s Speed Dial Key.
In the following figure, the label “Manager” has been assigned to

Lauren Gates. As a result, Lauren Gates’ Speed Dial Key displays

“Manager” instead of “Lauren Gates.”

(Optional. This field only displays if your phone supports the H.323

protocol.) Tap the Protocol Type field, and then tap the field’s

highlighted grey box. From the drop-down list, tap SIP, H.323, or

Unspecified. (The default setting is Unspecified.)
If you select SIP, the phone will attempt to use the SIP protocol to

place calls to this contact. “SIP” will display next to the contact on the

Directory screen and Speed Dial Information screens.
If you select H.323, the phone will attempt to use the H.323 protocol

to place calls to this contact. “H323” will display next to the contact

on the Directory screen and Speed Dial Information screens.
If you select Unspecified, the phone will automatically choose the

protocol to use to place calls to this contact.
