35.15.2.10 Supervision / intercom
From A5000 R5.2, some supervision / intercom keys on SIP terminals, especially 6700i, are
programmable. Terminals 6700i can still be supervised by other proprietary IP or TDM terminals.
The supervision function (Busy Lamp field) is used to know the status of another terminal. Each
person belonging to the same intercom group can configure a supervision key (with indication) in order
to:
 Call the supervised terminal simply by pressing a key.
 Know whether the supervised terminal is free or busy
 View the status of an incoming call on this supervised terminal and intercept it just by pressing
a key.
 Forwarding an incoming call to the supervised terminal
The different supervision modes become available with this function:
 Simple intercom
 Reduced intercom
 Manager / assistant filters: N managers, M assistants configuration – from R5.4
From terminal software version 3.3 it is possible to automatically switch the screen focus to an
expansion module or softkey page that has BLF activity. This feature is available on 6755i, 6757i,
6739i as well as on M675i expansion module and can be activated via configuration file.
Intercom group:
 Simple or restricted
 Program keys:
 Call supervision: status via LEDs
 Call pick-up
 Filtering: filtering enables a "filtered" terminal to forward calls to a "filtering" terminal while
monitoring the forwarded calls. It requires the use of two programmable keys on the filtering
terminal and two programmable keys on the filtered terminal: one key for activating or
deactivating the filter, another key for monitoring calls. With A5000 R5.4, the A6700i series
terminals (except A6751i) can be both filtered and filtering terminals and can be used in an N
managers / M assistant’s configuration.
