Making Dial-Out Connections

When the Dial-Out Manually option is selected for the conference, the operator connects the dial-out participants to the conference. Also when a participant is disconnected from the conference, you can reconnect the participant to the conference.

To manually establish a Dial-out connection:

•In the Monitor pane, Status pane or Browser pane, right-click the participant icon, and then click Connect Participant.

Alternatively, click the Participant icon, and then click the Connect button on the Participant Toolbar.

You can connect several participants in one operation using the standard

Windows conventions for multiple selection.

During the connection attempt, the participant status changes to Connecting in the Connection column and then changes to Connected once the participant’s connection is established.

The MCU can be configured to automatically reconnect participants who were accidentally disconnected from the conference. For more details, see the MGC Administrator’s Guide, chapter 5.
