3. Select PBX > AltiGen IP Phone Configuration. Switch to the Polycom tab. Select the extension.
4.
The page shows you ten customizable sets of fields; each one is a lamp slot. You can configure a BLF slot
or a Line Park slot for each of the ten sets of fields.
In any available slot (1-10), select BLF from the first pull-down menu.
5. In the middle field, enter the extension number; this must be an extension on the Monitor list (which you
set up in step 2). If you enter an extension that you’ve already assigned to a slot, you will see a
notification.
6. The Label field will populate automatically the first time you configure the slot, based upon the extension
that you chose. This text will appear on the Polycom phone beside the extension number.
You can edit this string as needed, to more clearly indicate the name of the user, a group name, or any
relevant string. Be aware that the character display length for this field will vary from one Polycom model
to another. To avoid having this entry truncated on a phone’s display, enter a relatively short label. We
recommend that you check the phone display and layout to check any truncation and adjust the label
accordingly.
7. Configure whether incoming BLF calls should ring this extension, and if so, which ring tone should play.
This setting applies to both BLF and Line Park slots.
To ring the extension when this monitored line has an incoming call, check Enable Splash Display and
choose the ring tone. This setting applies to all monitored BLF and Line Park slots for this extension; you
cannot customize rings for individual slots.
To disable such rings, clear the checkbox; the phone’s light will briefly flash to signal an incoming call for
the monitored extension.
8.
Repeat this step for any other monitored extensions for this extension. Click Apply when you have
finished configuring the lamp slots for this extension. Click Save and Reboot when you have finished all
customization for this extension.
The changes will take affect once you reboot this Polycom phone.
Note: If you later remove the Polycom Advanced License from this extension, all ten of the BLF/Line Park slots in
the Polycom tab (see Figure 21) will be disabled.
