Conference Calls

button. The other parties can talk among themselves, but they cannot

 

hear you. Music on Hold does not play when a conference call is on

 

hold.

To transfer a conference call to another telephone, press the Transfer button. Dial the number to which you want to transfer the call, announce to the recipient (optionally) that you are transferring a conference call, and then press the Transfer button again.

All of the conferenced parties are transferred except yourself.

Your ability to drop the last person that you added to the conference is transferred to the person who accepts the transfer.

Using Camp On

Camp On allows you to queue a transferred call on to an NBX destination

 

extension that is already in use. When the destination extension becomes

 

available, the system automatically rings that extension.

 

While a call is camped on, the caller hears either Music On Transfer (MOT)

 

or silence if no music is provided. The destination extension becomes

 

available when the user ends the current call or puts the current call on

 

Hold.

 

You initiate a Camp On call through Feature code 468 or a programmed

 

system access button depending on the type of NBX telephone you have

 

and how it is configured.

 

Examples 1 and 2 show two different ways for a user to initiate Camp

 

On.

 

Example 1: Camp On With Call Transfer

 

The user at extension 1001 calls the user at extension 1002, who then

 

transfers the call to extension 1003. But the user at extension 1003 is on

 

another call. (The display panel of the extension 1002 telephone shows

 

“On Another Call.”) So the user at extension 1002 initiates the Camp On

 

call, and then hangs up. The user at extension 1001 remains on hold

 

while the user at extension 1003 hears a tone that indicates a caller is

 

camped on. As soon as extension 1003 is available, extension 1003 rings

 

with a call from extension 1001.

 

In this example, the user at extension 1002 initiates Camp On after

 

initiating a screened call transfer.
