Tips
• Barge and cBarge softkeys are not available for private calls.
• You cannot barge an encrypted call if the phone you are using is not configured for encryption.
When your barge attempt fails for this reason, your phone plays a fast busy tone.
• 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.
Preventing Others from Viewing or Barging a Shared-Line Call
If you use a shared line, you can use the Privacy feature to prevent others who share this line from
viewing or barging your calls (adding themselves to calls on the shared lines using the Barge or cBarge
feature.)
If you want to... Then...
Prevent others from viewing or
joining any calls on a shared line.
Press Private.
Allow others to view or join any
calls on a shared line.
Press Private.
Tips
• If the phone that shares your line has Privacy enabled, you can make and receive calls using the
shared line as usual. However, you cannot add yourself to existing calls on the shared line, and the
barge softkeys will not be available to you.
• The privacy feature applies to all shared lines on the phone. Consequently, if you have multiple
shared lines on your phone and Privacy is enabled, coworkers will not be able to view or barge
calls on any of your shared lines.
