blink red to indicate the hold state and the display will show “Line in Use” until the handset is returned to the cradle, then return to the green steady state.
The call will be active on the conference phone and all functions will be as defined for calls initiated on the conference phone.
Conferencing - using the Meridian phone:
Conference calls already established on the Meridian phone can be easily transferred to the SoundStation2 Direct Connect.
►Press the ON/OFF button on the conference phone then replace the Meridian handset. The LEDs will blink red to indicate the hold state and the display will show “Line in Use” until the handset is returned to the cradle, then return to the green steady state.
The SoundStation2 Direct Connect will function as if the conference call had originated on the conference phone. If the ECS limit has not been reached, new parties may be added as described earlier.
Transferring conferences before the cycle is complete, such as before the call is established, and included or dropped, will result in dropping all callers if you subsequently push the ON/OFF button on the conference phone.
Call Mute - using the Meridian Phone:
If you have a Meridian phone connected to the Interface Module, and your SoundStation2 Direct Connect is in use, you may use your phone to break away from the public conference call to speak privately to the far end(s) without disconnecting the conference call.
►When you lift the handset, all microphones and the speaker on the console are muted. The red LEDs will blink to indicate the hold state and the display will show “Line in Use”. When the handset is returned to the cradle, the conference call is resumed and the LEDs return to a steady state.
