Turning Privacy on or off for a call
Lines in your system can be configured to have automatic privacy.
If a line is not programmed with privacy, anyone with the line
assigned to their telephone can join your call by pressing the line
button. If a line is programmed with privacy, only one person at a
time can use the line.
Privacy control cannot be used on internal or conference calls.
When another telephone joins a call, the participants on the call will
hear a tone, and a message appears on the Norstar display. You
cannot join a call without this tone being heard.
Creating a conference by releasing privacy
If a line is programmed with privacy, you can turn privacy off to allow
another person with the same line to join in your conversation and
form a conference. All the rules applicable to a conference apply
except there is only one line in use, instead of the normal two. This
means that you cannot split a conference set up using Privacy.
Press .
Tell the other person to press the line button and join your
conversation.
Only two Norstar telephones in addition to the external caller can
take part in this kind of conference.
