Monitored Stations

When the installer assigns the personal intercom number of one telephone to
appear at a button on another telephone, the button and its associated light
provide a direct station select (DSS) busy lamp field (BLF) feature. With this
feature, the user can monitor the status of the appearing station. If the installer
also assigns a DSS status button to the telephone, the user can press it to select
between monitoring all of the telephone status or just its personal intercom status.
When the station monitoring feature is off, the status light shows the state of the
monitored telephone. If the user's telephone has a status button, he or she can
press it to show the busy/idle state of just the personal intercom number of the
monitored telephone.
When the station monitoring feature is on, the status light shows activity status
(idle, ringing, busy, and hold) of the monitored telephone.
To monitor another telephone,
•
1. OBSERVE the BLF light indications next to the Direct Station
Select (DSS/BLF) button:
• Off = Station is idle

Your telephone may have the personal intercom number of another telephone
appearing at a programmable button location. You can press the DSS/BLF button
to call that telephone or to answer a call that is ringing at the monitored station if
you wish.

ringing,
