The Busy Lamp Field (BLF) feature enhances support for a phone-based

attendant console. It allows monitoring the hook status and remote party

information of users through the busy lamp fields and displays on an

attendant console phone.
In the SIP 3.1 release, the BLF feature is updated for the following:

Visual indication when a remote line is in an alerting state

Display of the caller ID of calls on remotely monitored lines

Single button “Directed Call Pickup” on a remote line

Configuration changes can performed centrally at the boot server:

Customizable Fonts and Indicators

The phone’s user interface can be customized by changing the fonts and

graphic icons used on the display and the LED indicator patterns. Pre-existing

fonts embedded in the software can be overwritten or new fonts can be

downloaded. The bitmaps and bitmap animations used for graphic icons on

the display can be changed and repositioned. LED flashing sequences and

colors can be changed.

Polycom recommends that the BLF not be used in conjunction with the Microsoft
Live Communications Server 2005 feature. For more information, refer to
