Speeddial/Conference Key

The IP Phones allow you to configure a softkey/programmable key/expansion module key to be used as a Speeddial Conference key (Speeddial/Conf key) while remaining in the current call. This key allows a user on a call, to conference another party at a pre-defined number while remaining in the conference call.

For example, while on an active call, a user can use the Speeddial/Conf key to dial a recording service and have the result- ing conference recorded.

Note:

If currently in a conference, the Speeddial/Conf key is disabled on the active call.

How it Works

If you configure a softkey/programmable key/expansion module as a Speeddial/Conf key, and you press this key while on an active call, the focused line changes to the dialing line. A Cancel softkey displays on the phone (only those phones that have LCDs larger then 3 lines), allowing you to abort the conference speeddial if required. The message "Ringing..." displays below the number when the far end is ringing. The message "Conf. Unavailable" briefly displays when a confer- ence is already in progress or when the CT handset is in use. The active call is not put on hold when the speeddial number is dialed.
