BLF/LIST KEY
The BLF/List feature on the IP phones is specifically designed to support the BroadSoft
BroadWorks Release 13 Busy Lamp Field feature.
This feature allows the IP phone to subscribe to a list of monitored users defined through the
BroadWorks web portal.
In addition to monitoring the idle and busy state, the BLF/List feature also supports the ringing
state. When the monitored user is idle, the corresponding softkey is green. When the monitored
user’s phone is ringing, the corresponding softkey turns yellow. Finally, when the monitored
user on an active call or is attempting to make a call, the corresponding softkey turns red.
Additionally, the corresponding softkey LED illuminates to match the monitored user’s state,
either off (idle), flashing (ringing), or solid (busy).
Notes:
1. BLF/List functionality can only be programmed on the top softkeys.
2. For use with the BroadSoft BroadWorks Release 13 or higher platform only. Your
System Administrator must have BLF/List enabled on the BroadWorks call manager.
Contact your System Administrator for more information.
Notes:
1. You can use a BLF/List-configured key to automatically dial out to the configured
extension.
2. The BroadWorks BLF feature is not the same as the BroadWorks Shared Call
Appearance (SCA) feature and does not permit call control over the monitored
extension.
