Busy Lamp Field Configuration on a Monitoring Phone
If a user needs to monitor a coworker's availability to receive a call, you can configure a busy lamp field on
the user's (monitoring) phone. With this feature, colored LEDs show whether a coworker's (monitored) line
is busy or free to take a call.
If this feature is configured on your phone, the following LED colors are displayed on a line key:
•
Green LED
—
Monitored line is available.
•
Red LED
—
Monitored line is busy.
•
Red fast blinking LED
—
Call is ringing to the monitored line.
•
Amber LED
—
Configuration error occurred when this feature was being set up.
You can configure busy lamp field so a user can answer an incoming call on the monitored line. With busy
lamp field pickup, the user can select the blinking line key to answer an incoming call.
You can also configure the busy lamp field to work with speed dial or call pickup to give the user more
flexibility when handling calls.
