Including Multiple Sites in Calls
If your system is hosting a conference call (all callers are connecting to your system), you
can add participants to an existing call at any time up to the maximum connections allowed
for the system. You can add a second participant while the first call is connecting; you do not
need to wait for the first call to connect. If you attempt to add a participant after the system
limit has been reached, the message Maximum Calls Reached appears in the Call Status
window.
To add participants to an existing call, follow these steps:
1. Press the button to return to the main screen to add a new caller.
2. Do one of the following:
- Select a number from the REDIAL list and press OK. An orange LED indicator
appears in the REDIAL list to the left of the voice or video numbers currently in a
call.
- Select a number from the directory. Refer to “Placing a Call from the Directory” on
page 18.
- Dial a number manually using the Voice Call or Video Call selections. Refer to
“Manually Dialing a Number from the Main Screen” on page 19.
- Press the add key on the phone keypad and enter the new number. Press the voice
key or the video key on the phone keypad, depending on the type of call you are
placing.
