Conference call

The system can support 5-way conference with a maximum of one outside call and four system extensions (including the initiating party), or two outside calls and three system extensions (including the initiating party). The outside call must be established first because an intercom call cannot be placed on hold.

There are two ways to establish a conference call.

A. Inviting parties using Intercom

The party who initiates the conference invites other system extensions to join the conference by using intercom after establishing the first outside call.

-OR-

B. Join a call in progress

Other system extensions can join the call in progress by pressing the line key which is currently in use for the conference to join the call.

A. Inviting parties using Intercom

1.Make or answer an outside call.

2.Press another available line key to make another outside call. The original outside call is put on hold. When the external party picks up, you can have a private conversation with that party.

-OR-

Press INTERCOM. The outside call is put on hold. Press or to scroll to the desired extension, or enter the desired extension number directly. The called extension picks up the intercom call. You can now have a private conversation with that extension.

3.Press CONFERENCE at any time to begin the conference call.

4.If necessary, repeat step 2 (Intercom method) and step 3 above to invite another system extension to join the conference until the maximum capacity is reached.

5.Place the corded handset on the console or press SPEAKER if you are using the speakerphone to hang up. If the party who initiates the conference call hangs up, the conference call will be ended. The call will also be ended when all parties hang up.

NOTE: If you want to start a conference with two outside calls, make sure you have invited two outside calls before inviting any system extensions.
