• When the BLF key page is shown and there are several more incoming calls on BLF keys,
after 10 seconds the next active BLF key will be shown in the key number order.
CONFIGURING BLF PAGE SWITCH
Use the following procedures to configure the BLF page switch feature on the IP phone.
To configure the BLF page switch on the IP phones using the configuration files, see Appendix
A, the section, “BLF Page Switch” on page A-257.
CONFIGURABLE DISPLAY MODES FOR BLF AND BLF/LIST SOFTKEY
LABELS
The manner in which labels for BLF and BLF/List softkeys are displayed on the applicable IP
phones (as well as the M685i Expansion Modules) can be configured by Administrators. By
defining the “
blf display label to max
” parameter to either “
0
” or “
1
” in the configuration files,
Administrators can choose between two distinct display modes.
In the primary (default) display mode (i.e. “
blf display label to max: 0”
), when a label exceeds
the maximum characters the respective phone’s screen can display, the phone adds an ellipsis
(i.e. “...”) at the end of the label indicating the label has been automatically truncated. In the
secondary display mode (i.e. “
blf display label to max: 1”
), the phone does not automatically
truncate the label and simply displays as many characters as the area reserved for the label
allows.
CONFIGURING BLF AND BLF/LIST SOFTKEY LABEL DISPLAY MODES
Use the following procedure to configure the display mode for BLF and BLF/List softkey labels:
Notes:
1.
This feature is not applicable to BLF/List keys.
2.
To minimize the chance of a lot of switching between the Idle screen and the page(s)
with BLF keys, it is recommended to have the BLF keys with most frequent traffic
on one page. If the expansion module has several BLF keys, it is recommended to
use an extra display panel unit.
3.
The 6867i and 6869i IP phones (as well as the M685i Expansion Module) will
automatically switch to the idle page (or the first page on the M685i Expansion
Module) if no BLF activity is detected by the phone.
