Hosting Conference Calls
Your system administrator configures the maximum number of parties allowed in a conference call. The default value is three (including yourself).
You can set up a conference in one of two ways:
•Using the Conference soft key or 
. The participant with whom you will exchange video is the participant you most recently added to the conference (if the party can exchange video).
•Using the Join soft key, if you have an active call and one call on hold (on the same or another Line Key). The participant with whom you will exchange video is the party who was previously on hold (if the party can exchange video).
If the site for which you view video changes to a different site after you set up a conference, the message “Video can only be active with one party at a time” displays.
To choose the participant with whom to exchange video, see “Managing Conference Call Participants” on page 46.

to create a new call. The active call is placed on hold.

again to join all parties in the conference.

If the second participant can exchange video, you will exchange video with the second participant. If the second participant cannot exchange video, but the first participant can, you will exchange video with the first participant.
