Place a Call

Any MADN member can place a call on the shared line. When a member places a call on the shared line,
the other members are notified with a steady red LED light on the members' phones.
Only one call at a time can be active on the shared line. If a call is placed to the shared line with an active
call in place, the incoming call is sent to voicemail.

Answer Calls

Any incoming call to the shared line rings on all group members' phones simultaneously, the call is
displayed on all members' screens, and a green LED light flashes on the phones.
Any MADN member can respond to an incoming call to the shared line. When an MADN member
answers an incoming call, the LED indicator on all phones changes to a steady red light to indicate the
call was answered. Members can also view the status of a call on the shared line by pressing and holding
the corresponding line key for one second. The call's status and the Barge In soft key display for five
seconds.
If bridging is disabled and privacy is enabled for the shared line, the Barge In soft key does not display
and you cannot barge in on active calls answered by other MADN members.
Barge In on an Active Call
After a call is answered, any group member can barge in on the active call on a non-private shared line,
which becomes a bridge call—a call between two or more MADN members and another party. Ask your
system administrator about the maximum number of participants allowed on a bridge call.
To barge in on an active call:
1 Press and hold the corresponding line key for the shared line for one second.
2 Select the Barge In soft key, as shown next, and lift the handset.
A bridge tone plays notifying the other call participants that you are barging in on the call.
