Conference Calls
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.

To conference calls
1. While on a call, press
. You hear dial tone.
2. Call another station or outside line.
3. When the called party answers, press
. If you receive a busy tone or no answer, press
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.

To transfer conference control

with the ability to add or delete parties.
