Conference Split/Join/Drop
This feature enables the conference master to add (Join) other phones to a conference.
The conference master and another member of the conference can leave (Split) the
conference for a private conversation. During this time, other conference members
remain connected.
The conference master can then Join both of the Split callers back into the conference,
or the master can Drop (disconnect) the member he/she is connected to. This feature
is performed with Soft Keys, so an LCD phone is required.
Note There are no feature access codes or feature keys for this feature.
Important! You must be a conference master to perform the Split and Drop
features.
➤ To Split from a conference
1. Press the
SPLIT Soft Key. Your LCD shows first conference party member. Press

...or if you want to return you back to the original conference, press
RTRN.
2. Press the number of the party that you want to Split out
of the conference. Example (shown right), if you want to
Split with extension 3388, press
on the dial pad.
3. You can return both yourself and the other Split party
back into the conference by pressing

➤ To Drop the Split party from a conference
➤ Press the DROP Soft Key. The party that you are talking to privately (the party

remaining party will essentially be “on hold” until you return to the conference.
