To place a call by entering a name or number:
1. In the dialing field, enter the dialing information. Depending on the
capabilities of your system and the system you are calling, the dialing
information will look like one of these samples:

2. Enter any additional information needed for the call. The available
settings depend on the type of call and your system’s configuration.
Not all calls require these settings:

calls, choose Auto to let the system determine the best quality for the
call.
Second ISDN number – Use two numbers only when the person you
are calling instructs you to do so.
