Line Keys; Answering Priority - NEC DSX-40 Feature Handbook

Line Keys

Description
Press a line key for one-touch access to an outside line.
A line key provides an extension user with one-button access to outside lines. The extension user just presses
a line key to place or answer a call on the line. There is no need to dial codes to access or intercept outside
calls. In addition, a line key provides a Busy Lamp Field (BLF) for the line to which it is assigned (see the
table below).
