Defining an Emergency Dial Plan
Public telephone networks in countries around the world have a single emergency telephone
number (emergency services number), that allows a caller to contact local emergency services for
assistance when required. The emergency telephone number may differ from country to country. It
is typically a three-digit number so that it can be easily remembered and dialed quickly. Some
countries have a different emergency number for each of the different emergency services.
You can specify the digits to dial on the IP phone for contacting emergency services. Once you
specify the emergency number(s) on the phone, you can dial those numbers dir ectly on the dial pad
when required and the phone automatically dials to those emergency services.
Note: Contact your local phone service provider for available emergency
numbers in your area.

Busy Lamp Field (BLF) Key
The BLF feature on the IP phones allows a specific extension to be monitored for state changes.
BLF monitors the status (busy or idle) of extensions on the IP phone.
Note: The BLF setting is applicable to the Asterisk server only.
Example
A Supervisor configures BLFs on his phone for monitoring the status of a worker’s phone use
(busy or idle). When the worker picks up his phone to make a call, a busy indicator on the
Supervisor’s phone shows that the worker’s phone is in use and busy.
On the 6753i, the busy and idle indicators are the LEDs next to each BLF key. The LED
illuminates steady to indicate the monitored line is off-hook or unregistered. The LED goes off
when the line is idle.
You can set BLF on the programmable keys or expansion module keys using the Aastra Web UI
only. BLF is not configurable from the IP phone UI.
Note: You can also use a BLF configured key to dial out. Contact your System
Administrator for more information

BLF List Key
(For use with the BroadSoft Broadworks Rel 13 or higher platform only)
The BLF\List feature on the IP phones is specifically designed to support the BroadSoft
Broadworks Rel 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.
Note: Your System Administrator must have BLF List enabled on the
BroadWorks Server. Contact your System Administrator for more information.
In addition to monitoring the idle and busy state, the BLF\List feature also supports the ringing
state. On the 6753i phone, the LED lights next to each BLF key illuminate steady to indicate the
monitored line is off-hook or unregistered. The LED goes off when the is idle. When the
monitored extension is ringing, the LED flashes.
Note: You can use a BLF\List configured key to dial out.
Example
A receptionist has a 6753i running Broadsoft firmware that subscribes to a list of extensions from
the BroadWorks Application Server. On the 6753i running Broadsoft firmware, the key LEDs
illuminate either flashing, solid, or turn off depending on the state of those extensions.
Note: 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.

Password to access the applicable phone queue.
After creating an ACD key, you are ready to receive calls from a queue on the server. You must
press the ACD key and then log in by entering your User ID and Password. An "Available" key
displays allowing you to make your phone available to accept these calls.
Line Keys and Programmable Keys
When you are on an active call, or you miss a call, the server automatically changes the phone’s
status to unavailable. The server updates it’s database with this new information and no longer
distributes calls to the phone. The phone remains in this "unavailable" state until:
•you make yourself “available” again by pressing the "Available" key.
•an ACD timer expires (set by your System Administrator).

Aastra IP phones support the Directed Call Pickup (DCP) and Group Call Pickup (GCP) features.
The DCP/GCP feature allows you to intercept - or pickup - a call on a monitored extension. You
can configure this feature using the Aastra Web UI to create a DCP or GCP key on the IP phone.
When you configure a DCP key, you specify the extension that you want to monitor. Then, when
the monitored extension receives a call, you press the DCP key to pick up the call. If the monitored
extension receives multiple incoming calls simultaneously, the IP Phone UI displays a list of
incoming calls. You select a call from this list, and are connected to the call.
When you configure a GCP key, you specify the ring group (for example, extensions 2200 - 2210)
that you want to monitor for incoming calls. When an incoming call is received on any of these
extensions, the Operator presses the GCP key and is connected to the call. If multiple incoming
calls are received simultaneously, the Operator press the GCP key, selects an extension from a list,
and presses the Pickup key to answer the call.

Speeddial/Conf
The 6753i allows you to configure a programmable key or expansion module key to be used as a
speeddial conference key (Speeddial/Conf key) while remaining in the current call. This key
allows a user on a call to conference another party at a pre-defined number while remaining in
the conference.
For example, while on an active call, a user can use the Speeddial/Conf key to dial a recording
service and have the resulting conference recorded.
If you configure a programmable key as a Speeddial/Conf key and you press this key while on
an active call, the focused line changes to the dialing line. A Cancel softkey displays on the
phone allowing you to abort the conference speeddial if required. The message "Ringing..."
displays below the number when the far end is ringing. The message "Conf. Unavailable" briefly
displays when a conference is already in progress. The active call is not put on hold when the
speeddial number is dialed.
Note: If not currently in a conference, the Speeddial/Conf key is disabled
on the active call.
Note: This feature is not compatible with centralized conferencing.
