Environment: The Avaya BDE is 6.0, and the dmcc api is 5.2.3
After much searching for configuration of RING_STAT.....(might be useful to others)

change system-parameters special-applications (screen 3: SA8428 Station User Button Ring Control)
change station 50202 (screen 2: Per Button Ring Control)
change station 50202 (screen 4: add the ring-stat button)

I managed to get the button press to work, however......

RING_STAT is (if i've understood correctly) supposed to give you the RINGER STATUS.
How do I get hold of the value? How is it returned?

1. Press the Ringer Status button
2. Press the Call Appearance or Bridged Appearance button that you want to check
3. Examine the contents of the Display.

Thanks for your clarification Martin. It looks like I've misunderstood the use of RING_STAT. I thought I could get the status of the RINGER_OFF button (enabled or disabled) by doing a DMCC buttonpress on RING_STAT. I now see that isn't how it's used.

To find out the status of the RINGER_OFF button (enabled or disabled), I guess I have to set up a listener and catch the right event?

Start a Phone listener and filter for Lamp Mode events or you can poll for the state using GetLampMode.

Thanks Martin
