Monitoring Other Lines

Some models of phones let you monitor the status of other extensions in your business. A key and a lamp on your phone will be associated with that other extension.

  • If there is no call in progress on that extension, the lamp will not be lit.
  • If a call is ringing on that extension, the lamp will blink quickly.
  • If a call is on hold on that extension, the lamp will blink slowly.
  • If a call is in progress on that extension, the lamp will be lit solidly.

If you want to answer a call that is ringing on the extension you are monitoring, pick up your handset and press the key for that extension. You will be connected to the caller.

You can also use these keys as speed dials for the other extension. To call the other extension when there is no call in progress on it, pick up your handset and press the key for that extension.
