Requirements Setting Up a Conference (optional feature)

Your TANDBERG 150 MXP may be used to initiate video conferences with several participants, provided that:

•All parties to be involved are available through H.323.

•You are connected to an MCU (Multi- Conference Unit) supporting this.

•Your TANDBERG 150 MXP is set up to allow the use of external Multiway. This is set up by your administrator and is described in the Administrator’s Guide.

Since the call transfer feature makes use of SIP and the conference initialization feature makes use of H.323, the two features cannot be combined in a single session!

As an alternative to the procedure outlined here, you may just as well expand an ongoing call to become a conference by pressing the green Call now key, move the cursor to Add another Call and continue as shown on this page.

Prepare to make a call in the usual way, either by entering the “number” manually or by making use of the phone book.

Repeat  and  until all participants required have been added.

Move the cursor to the Add another Call icon and press OK.

The system will now disconnect you and transfer the video conference to the MCU (Multi-Conference Unit). All participants, including yourself will be called by the MCU and the conference can start.

Move cursor to the new line that was added and repeat the procedure to add a participant.

If you – as initiator – disconnects the call, the entire conference will be terminated.

If any of the other participants disconnects, the conference continues without the disconnected person.
