3.6.20 Monitoring Another Extension via BLF Key
This function offers the possibility to monitor another extension, and to pick up calls for the
monitored extension. The LED of the key will indicate the state of the extension monitored:
• Extension is busy: LED is glowing.
• Extension is ringing: LED is blinking.
The label for the key is defined in Key label <key number>.
The Monitored phone parameter stores the call number or SIP URI of the monitored phone.
If Audible alert is enabled, an alert beep or ringtone will indicate an incoming call for the mon-
itored phone. The BLF alerting parameter in System > Features > Configuration determines
whether the alert beep or the ringtone is used.
If Popup alert is enabled, a popup window will indicate an incoming call for the monitored
phone.
With firmware version V2R1 onwards, the BLF key can be used to pick up calls for the moni-
tored extension. For this purpose, the appropriate SIP code must be entered in System > fFea-
tures > Services > BLF pickup code.
