Programming Macros
If you frequently perform a console task that requires several keystrokes, 
you can automate the task using a macro. A macro is a series of 
keystrokes that you assign to a single key. Instead of repeating the 
keystrokes each time you want to perform a task, you can press the macro 
key to execute all the keystrokes at once.
Macros are designed to facilitate the transfer of calls to voice mail or for 
recovering calls released to the wrong extension. You can also use macro 
keys for one-button dialing of frequently called telephone numbers; 
programming macros for other uses is not recommended.
The two unlabelled keys on the console (circled in the illustration below) is 
available for programming as a macro keys. You can also reprogram the 
Trunk Group and Set Page keys and use them as macro keys instead.
To program a macro or to clear a previously programmed macro:
1. While holding down the Function key, press the softkey that 
corresponds to the firmkey you want to program.
The display shows the macro keystrokes (if any) currently programmed 
to the selected key.
