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 directly 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.
The following table describes the default emergency numbers on the IP phones.
Emergency

or calls from a group that your extension is part of. By pressing a line/call appearance button, you
connect to the line or a call it represents. The line/call appearance light indicates the status of that
line or call. When the phone is taken off-hook, the phone automatically selects a line for you.

The following table identifies the applicable default states for each softkey type on the IP phone.

you uncheck the box for that state.
Key Display Behavior
On the 6755i IP Phone, you can configure up to 20 functions on the softkeys. If you have no
softkeys configured on the IP Phone, and you assign softkey functions to higher number keys in
the Aastra Web UI, the key functions automatically appear in the first available position on the

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 6755i, the busy and idle indicators show on the IP phone screen display next to the key
programmed for BLF functionality. When the monitored user is idle, an icon with the handset
on-hook shows next to the BLF key. When the monitored user is on an active call, a small
telephone icon is shown with the handset off-hook.
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. When the monitored user is idle, there is a small telephone icon shown with the handset
on-hook. When the monitored user is on an active call, a small telephone icon is shown with the
handset off-hook.
Note: You can use a BLF\List configured key to dial out.
Example
A receptionist has a 6755i running Broadsoft firmware that subscribes to a list of extensions
from the BroadWorks Application Server. On the 6755i, 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.
Configuring a BLF List Key
The BLF List function can be configured on the 6755i using the Aastra Web UI only.
Line Keys, Programmable Keys, and Softkeys
If you set a key to use BLF/List, you must also enter a BLF List URI at Operation->Softkeys
and XML->Services. The BLF List URI is the name of the BLF list defined on the BroadSoft
BroadWorks Busy Lamp field page for your particular user. For example,
my480i-blf-list@as.broadworks.com. The value of the BLF\List URI parameter must match the
list name configured. Otherwise, no values display on the 6755i screen and the feature is
disabled.

Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) Key (for Sylantro Servers)
The 6755i and any attached Expansion Modules support Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) for
Sylantro servers. The ACD feature allows the Sylantro server to distribute calls from a queue to
registered IP phone users (agents).
To use the ACD feature on an IP phone, you must first configure an ACD softkey, programmable
key, or expansion module key. When you want to subscribe to a queue (in order to receive
incoming calls), you press the ACD key and the IP phone UI prompts you to specify the following
information:
•User ID: the phone number(s) used to login into the queue.
•Password: the password used to login to the queue.
•Available/unavailable: Shows the current status of the IP phone. Specifies if the IP phone
user is available/unavailable to receive a call from the queue.
Note: Your System Administrator must provide you with your User ID and
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" softkey
displays allowing you to make your phone available to accept these calls.
Line Keys, Programmable Keys, and Softkeys
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" softkey.
•an ACD timer expires (set by your System Administrator).
You can also choose to manually change the phone status to unavailable by pressing the
"Unavailable" softkey on the phone.
Note: It is recommended you configure no more than a single ACD softkey,
programmable key, or expansion module key per IP phone.

Using the ACD Feature on your IP Phone
The ACD feature allows you to login to a phone queue in order to receive distributed calls on your
IP phone. To login to a phone queue, you must preconfigure an ACD softkey, programmable key,.
or expansion module key on your IP Phone as described in the previous procedure.
Your Administrator sets up the queue that you access when you press the ACD Key. Contact your
System Administrator for more information.
When you press the ACD Key, the phone prompts you to enter a User ID and Password to login
into the queue. Once logged in, you can make your phone “available” or “unavailable” to take calls
by pressing the Available/Unavailable Key (). The server monitors your IP phone status. When
you set the IP phone to “available,” the server begins distributing calls to your phone. When you
set the IP phone to “unavailable,” the server temporarily stops distributing calls to your phone.
