You could setup a forward on the original called line, to forward to a button on the monitoring phone. This way, the first phone would continue to ring, and the monitoring phone would begin to ring after x seconds of not being answered. If you have at least three lines on the phone, it would be ideal.

I set a ring for the "Attendant Calls" and then did a test call to a line that I have a BLF for. There was no audible ring, just flashing.

Some people cannot hear the other phone ringing. The old phone system (cisco) had an option to make the BLFs tone when they rang to get attention. I am trying to find a balance between having a line key and a BLF key. The line keys work for ringing and getting calls, however, they do not know when the line is busy unless I enabled shared line. I have been not using shared line because I have noticed weird issues with this feature enabled. We have migrated people to BLFs and they are fine using them for pickup, however, they complain now that they do not know the line is ringing unless they stare at their phone, He had to give one person both line and BLF for the same person.... trying to avoid this type of setup. I forgot how bad the users can get. User NOT LIKE Change.... We are running firmware 3.2.6.0314 and bootrom 3.1.6.011. Polycom 650s.
