Conference Calls

Up to eight parties (including yourself) may be connected to form a conference call. If needed, you can also place a conference on hold.

To set up a conference call

  • With the two parties connected to the console—one in the Source area and the other in the Destination area—press [Conference].

To split a conference to speak privately to either caller

  • Press either [Source] or [Destination].

To add more parties to a conference

  1. Dial the number of the next party.

    The word "Conference" and a Conference number now appear in the Source area, and the number of the dialed party appears in the Destination area.

  2. Press [Conference].

    The new party is added to the conference. The parties already in the conference hear a brief tone each time a party is added.

    If the line is busy or unanswered or the person is unavailable, press Cancel to reconnect to the conference. You may continue dialing to add more parties to the conference.
