Adding Yourself to a Shared-Line Call
Depending on how your phone is configured, you can add yourself to a call on a shared line using
Barge or cBarge.
Tips
If a phone that is using the shared line has Privacy enabled, call information and barge softkeys
will not appear on the other phones that share the line.
You will be disconnected from a call that you have joined using Barge if the call is put on hold,
transferred, or turned into a conference call.
