Cisco Systems 7970 warranty Starting or Joining a Meet-Me Conference Call, Tips

If you want to...	Then...
Remove any conference par-	Highlight the participant’s name and press Remove. You can remove
ticipant	participants only if you initiated the conference call.
End your participation in a	Hang up or press EndCall. If you did not initiate the conference call,
standard conference	hanging up will not disrupt the connection for the remaining parties.
	If you initiated the conference call, hanging up might end the confer-
	ence (depending on how your system administrator configured your
	phone). To avoid this, you can transfer the conference to another
	caller before hanging up. That caller then acts as the “virtual con-
	troller” for the conference. A virtual controller cannot add or
	remove parties; however, the conference continues with the estab-
	lished participants.

Tips

•Calls must be on the same line before you can add them to a standard conference call. If calls are on different lines, transfer them to a single line before using Confrn or Join.

•If you get an error stating, “No Participant Info” when attempting to use Join, be sure that you have selected at least one call in addition to the active call, which is selected automatically.

•Depending on how your phone is configured, if you leave a conference after creating it, the conference might end. See the last row of the above table for more information.
