Conferencing

When your telephone is joined together with several other telephones on the
same call, the effect is called conferencing. You can make conference calls that
involve up to five parties (seven for DXP, DXP Plus, FXS and FXT systems),
including you as the originating party, in any combination of outside lines and
intercom parties.
NOTE: When setting up a conference call with outside lines and internal
telephones, you must call the outside lines first.
To set up a conference call that includes any combination
•
