Conference

A conference can be set up in different ways: With a conference bridge, the conference participants dial in at a specific time. Open conference rooms can be viewed or even deleted in this view.

Lets you preconfigure 4 conference groups for regular conference calls attended by the same participants. If you store the corresponding function code on a key, a preconfigured conference is set up with a key stroke.

Dial-in conference rooms

The conference organiser prepares, via a Self Service Portal, a conference room and e-mails an invitation to this conference, indicating the topic, date and time, internal and/or external dial-in number and conference PIN.

The conference participants choose, at a predefined time, the internal or external dial-in number and are connected with the conference. An audio guide assists the conference participants during the dial-in.

Conference rooms are basically managed via the users' Self Service Portal. However, all open conference rooms can be seen with their status, usage counter and last application, and can deleted by clicking the del.gif symbol. Moreover, you can adjust here the description of the conference rooms and generate a new PIN for each conference room by clicking the iconRefreshBlue.gif symbol.
