Conference Calls
You can conference together up to eight parties (including your own) - with up to six
parties being external network lines. The actual number of conference parties with
acceptable volume levels depends on the local and far end telephone line conditions.
The person who initiates the conference call is the Master. If, after the conference is
established, the Master exits the conference, and the first station to have been added to
the conference becomes the Master.
ä To conference calls
1. While on a call, press
Flash. You hear dial tone.
2. Call another station or outside line.
3. When the called party answers, press
Flash. If you receive a busy tone or no
answer, press
Flash again to return to the original connection.
4. All parties are conferenced.
5. Repeat the above steps to add lines to the conference. Keep in mind the maximum
number of allowed conference parties.
Note When the “master” of the conference hangs up, control is automatically
transferred to the first internal station added to the conference call. If no other
internal stations are included in the conference call, the call will be
disconnected.
ä To transfer conference control
1. Do Steps 1 and 2 above to add the line you wish to transfer conference control to.
See previous Note.
2. Announce the call and hang up to transfer the call. This station now becomes the
conference “master” with the ability to add or delete parties.
