Description

The EM/24 is a 24-key console that can be attached to a key telephone. The 24 keys on the EM/24 can be programmed as Direct Station Select (DSS) keys for internal lines.

In addition to providing direct station selection, the DSS keys also provide Busy Lamp Fields (BLFs) that allow you to monitor the status of other extensions. The LED lights red when the assigned extension is busy and lights green when Call Forwarding or Do-Not-Disturb (DND) are activated.
