Conference

To set up a

conference

The Conference feature lets you have up to eight par-
ties, including yourself, in a telephone conversation.
The other parties besides yourself can be on trunks
(outside lines). Any party can leave the conference by
hanging up.
During a conversation, press the TRANSFR
key to put the party on consultation hold.
You will hear the confirmation tone, followed
by the internal dial tone.
Dial the extension you want to add, or dial 9 and
the outside number.
After the party answers, press the Conference
(CONF) key to join all the parties. All parties
will hear a conference tone to signal that
another party has joined the call.
Or, if the party does not want to join the
conference, press the CONNECT key, which
will return you to the conference.
Note
If you do not have a Conference key on your
telephone, press the TRANSFR key to join all
parties.
To add another party, press the TRANSFR key
and dial the next party, then press CONF to join
all the parties. Everyone in the call will hear a
conference tone to signal that a new party has
joined the call.
