BLF PAGE SWITCH FEATURE

Note: Applicable to the 6867i and 6869i IP Phones only. This feature is currently not
supported on the 6873i IP phone.
The BLF page switch feature enables the 6867i and 6869i model phones to automatically switch
the screen focus to a softkey page or M685i expansion module page that has an active Busy
Lamp Field (BLF) key. Administrators can configure this feature using the "blf activity page
switch" parameter.
If this parameter is set to "1", the screen will switch to a softkey page or an M685i expansion
module page if a monitored extension transitions to a ringing (fast flashing) state. If this
parameter is set to "2", the screen will switch if a monitored extension transitions to either a
ringing (fast flashing) or a hold (slow flashing) state. Finally, if this parameter is set to "3", the
screen will switch if a monitored extension transitions to either a ringing or hold state OR from
an idle (off) state to an "in call" (solid) state.
The following can be observed with this new feature:
• If there is a lot of activity on the monitored extensions, the page will be shown on the screen
for at least 5 seconds before switching again. When a user manually scrolls the pages by
pressing the More key or the Function key (for the page you want to display) on the M685i,
no activity-triggered page flipping should occur for 5 seconds after the manual switch.
• If the phone softkeys are hidden by an overlay screen, such as an XML UI object, a menu
(e.g. the Services, Directory, or Received Callers List menu), or if the phone is in an active
call, the screen will not automatically switch focus to a softkey page with BLF activity (it will
however for an expansion module page).
• When the phone is in Idle mode, the menu switches to the page with the BLF key when
there is an incoming call to the monitored extension. The page is shown for 10 seconds if
the call is answered. If the call is not answered by the BLF extension, the BLF key page
will be shown as long as ringing is ongoing.
• When the BLF key page is shown and there is another incoming call on another BLF key
on the same page, the new call is also shown on this BLF key.
• When the BLF key page is shown and there is another incoming call on another BLF key
on another page, the switch to the other page will be done after 10 seconds.
