2.3 Answering Calls At Monitored Stations
Your system installer may arrange your telephone to have the
intercom number of another telephone appearing at a function
button location (F1–F3). You can use the light associated with
this button to monitor the status of that telephone and you can
press the button to make a call to it if you wish. The associated
light is known as the busy lamp field, or BLF light, and the
button is known as the direct station select, or DSS button.
If the installer also arranges for your station to have the station
monitoring feature, the BLF light shows activity status at the
monitored telephone.
To monitor another telephone,
•
observe the BLF light next to a DSS button (F1–F3):
Off = idle
Flashing = ringing
On = busy or on hold
NOTE: If you do not have the station monitoring feature, the BLF light
shows the following information: Off = idle, On = busy,
Flashing = calling you.
To call an idle monitored station or to answer one that is ring-
ing,
•
note the BLF light condition,
•
press assigned DSS button and speak.
NOTE: As soon as you answer the call, the BLF light turns off.
