Busy Lamp Field (BLF)
The BLF feature on the BluStar 8000i allows users to monitor their favorite contacts (speed dial list) for state changes. BLF
monitors the status (busy or ringing (yellow), available or idle (green), unavailable (red)) of extensions on the BluStar 8000i.
Example
A Supervisor has a worker added to her favorites and she configures BLFs on her BluStar 8000i for monitoring the status of
a worker’s BluStar 8000i use (busy, ringing, available, and unavailable). When the worker picks up his BluStar 8000i to make
a call, the contact button goes yellow (busy) on the Supervisor’s BluStar 8000i favorites screen to show that the worker’s
phone is in use.
Search
Users can search through their contacts, favorites, directory, and call history on the search screen. Contacts can be sorted
by the following:
• default (most recent calls dialed or received)
• first name
• last name
• company then first name
• company then last name
Users can also type in the name of the contact they are looking for in the search text field.
Note:
The BLF feature is only available in SIP Call Server mode. Contact status is available by default in BAS mode.
Note:
Contact your system administrator to configure the BLF feature for you.
