Configuring Softkeys

Speed Dial/Conf

The 6867i allows you to configure a softkey or programmable key or expansion module key to be used as a speed dial conference key (Speed Dial/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 call.

For example, while on an active call, a user can use the Speed Dial/Conf key to dial a recording service and have the resulting conference recorded.

Note:

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

If you configure a softkey or programmable key or expansion module key as a Speed Dial/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 allowing you to abort the conference speed dial if required.

Note:

This feature is not compatible with centralized conferencing.
