Hosting Conference Calls
You can create a conference with up to two other parties. After you set up a
conference, you can place the conference call on hold, split the conference call
into two calls on hold, or end the conference call (and your connection to the
conference call participants).
Setting Up Conferences
You can set up a conference in one of two ways:
• Using the Confrnc soft key.
• Using the Join soft key, if you have an active call and a call on hold.
To set up a conference using the Conference soft key:
1. Call the first party.
2. Press the Confrnc soft key. The active call is placed on hold.
3. Enter the number of the second party, and then press the Send soft key.
4. When the second party answers, press the Confrnc soft key to join all
parties in the conference.
The Active:Conference screen displays.
Note
If configured for single key-press conferences, the conference participant hears the
dial tone and ringback when the conference host places the call to the new party.
Note
If configured for single key-press conferences, you don’t have to press the Confrnc
soft key again.
