Feature description

Autodial (ADL) allows users to dial a number by pressing a single key.
Proprietary telephones and attendant consoles can be assigned an Autodial
key/lamp pair.

The number stored against the Autodial key can be programmed or changed
at any time. The maximum number of digits the user is allowed to program
can be 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, or 23 digits. Depending on the length allowed,
the Autodial number can be another DN or an access code plus further
digits. The asterisk (*) can be used as a pause for outpulsing (that is, for
outgoing trunks) when required. When the Autodial key is pressed, the
stored number is processed as if it had been dialed manually.

The asterisk (*) used to introduce a pause while outpulsing digits is
supported on analog and DTI trunks, but not supported on ISDN trunks. On
ISDN trunks, if the OPAO feature is enabled, the asterisk (*) is outpulsed
as a called party digit.
