This 984 telephone can store up to 200 names and phone
numbers in the directory. Names can be up to 16
characters long and numbers can be 24 digits long. Because
directory entries are stored in alphabetical order, you may
wish to enter names with the last name first in order to
maintain consistency with the information stored
automatically through the caller ID function of this system.
To enter directory mode, press D. The screen displays:
If there are already 200 stored entries, the screen display
includes DIRECTORY FULL! If you try to view directory
entries when there are no entries, the screen displays no
entries.
To work with the directory, press E. The screen
will display menu choices on the bottom line.
To exit directory mode at any time, press D.
