Busy Lamp Field Configuration on a Monitoring Phone
If a user needs to monitor a coworker's availability to receive a call, you can configure a busy lamp field on
the user's (monitoring) phone. With this feature, colored LEDs show whether a coworker's (monitored) line
is busy or free to take a call.
If this feature is configured on your phone, the following LED colors are displayed on a line key:
• Green LED—Monitored line is available.
• Red LED—Monitored line is busy.
• Red fast blinking LED—Call is ringing to the monitored line.
• Amber LED—Configuration error occurred when this feature was being set up.
