Conference Add/Split/Join/Drop
If you initiate a conference with two or more parties, you can continue to add outside callers to conference; or you and another member of the conference can leave (Split) the conference for a private conversation. During this time, other conference members remain connected.
You can then Join both of you back into the conference, or you can Drop (disconnect) the member you are connected to. This feature is performed with Soft Keys if you have a LCD phone or with a Split button programmed on one of your Programmable Feature Buttons.
This feature also works for remote stations which are connected through Strata Net QSIG.
Important! You must be a conference master to perform the Add, Split and Drop features. The conference master is the person that initiates the conference call. If that person drops from the conference, the first person added to the conference becomes the conference master.
