Conferencing - AT&T SYSTEM 25 User Manual

Conferencing

You can set up a conference that includes System 25 stations
as well as outside callers. You can have a maximum of five
conferees; however, no more than two may be on outside lines.
To set up a conference, start with one call; then contact the new
parties one at a time and add them to the original loop.
You can drop parties
However, once in a conference, you cannot selectively drop any
party from the conference because they are all on the same loop.
If you want someone to withdraw from the conference, ask that
person to hang up.
