Line Keys and Programmable Keys Busy Lamp Field (BLF) Key The BLF feature on the IP phones allows a specific extension to be monitored for state changes. BLF monitors the status (busy or idle) of extensions on the IP phone. Note: BLF feature availability is dependant on your call manager. Contact your System Administrator for more information Example A Supervisor configures BLFs on his phone for monitoring the status of a worker's phone use (busy or idle). When the worker picks up his phone to make a call, a busy indicator on the Supervisor's phone shows that the worker's phone is in use and busy. On the 6730i, the busy and idle indicators are the LEDs next to each BLF key. The LED illuminates steady to indicate the monitored line is off-hook or unregistered. The LED goes off when the line is idle. You can set BLF on the programmable keys using the Aastra Web UI only. BLF is not configurable from the IP phone UI. Note: You can also use a BLF configured key to dial out.
