BLF Key Labeling Format
The BLF key on your phone can be labeled with the name or number of the line being
monitored by the BLF key. The LCD display for a BLF key has 8 characters available to
display a name.
The name can be displayed in two different formats depending upon how it is stored in
the Pointspan DLS database. This has been pre-defined by your administrator.
1. Six characters of the first name with last initial, or
2. First initial with six characters of the last name.
Example:
George Washington can be displayed as “G Washin” or “George W”.
