2.5.3 PICKUP FOR MONITORED STATIONS

Your telephone may have the personal intercom number of another telephone appearing at a programmable button location. You can use the light associated with this button to monitor the status of that tele- phone, and you can press the button to make a call to that telephone if you wish. The associated light is known as the Busy Lamp Field (BLF) light, and the button is known as the Direct Station Select (DSS) button. If the installer arranged for your telephone to have the station monitoring feature, the BLF light shows activity status at the monitored telephone.

• To monitor another telephone,

—Observe the BLF light indications next to the Direct Station Select (DSS/BLF) button:

Off = Station is idle

Flashing (if enabled) = Station has an incoming call

On = Station is busy

Note: If you do not have the station monitoring feature, the

BLF light shows just the following information: Off = idle, On = busy.
