Message Indicator Lamp
The Message Indicator lamp (located at the top, right corner of the endpoint) shows
the same indications as the button. The Message Indicator lamp flashes when-
ever there is a waiting message.
NOTE: By default, the message lamp is programmed to light when you receive a new
voice mail message. However, this lamp can be programmed for other functions. Check
with your system administrator if you are unsure what your endpoint’s lamp is pro-
grammed to indicate.
DSS/BLF and Mini-DSS
Generally, the Model 8450 Direct Station Selection/Busy Lamp Field (DSS/BLF) unit
is used by individuals that handle a high volume of incoming calls, such as reception-
ists. The DSS/BLF provides one-button access to up to 50 extension numbers or a
programmable feature. For more information about programming and using the DSS,
refer to the current Administrator’s Guide.
NOTE: The Model 8660 does not support the DSS/BLF unit.
The Model 8416 Mini-DSS unit is a scaled-down version of the full-sized DSS/BLF
unit. This optional unit adds 16 user-programmable buttons to your endpoint. These
buttons can be programmed as any of the following:
• DSS buttons: Provide one-button access to extension numbers and display the
status of the extension associated with the button (see page 66).
• Feature buttons: Provide quick access to frequently-used features (see page 65).
• Secondary extensions: Allow one-button access to calls ringing or holding at
another station (see page 67).
NOTE: Instructions for attaching the Mini-DSS to your endpoint are included with the
unit.
The DSS/BLF and Mini-DSS lamps indicate the status of the extension or feature
assigned to the button. These indications are shown in the table below.
