The Group Call-out Smart Retry feature minimizes port usage during group

calls.

Lock or unlock the conference

The chairperson can lock the conference to prevent any new conferees

from joining by dialing *4. The chairperson can unlock the conference

allowing new conferees to join by dialing *4 again. A caller trying to join a

locked conference hears an announcement indicating that the conference is

locked. The system then disconnects the call. The chairperson can dial-out

and include a conferee when the conference is locked.

Because there is one command for lock and unlock, the system announces

to the chairperson one of two possible voice messages: "Meeting is locked"

or "Meeting is unlocked." Only the chairperson that activates the command

hears the lock/unlock announcement.

Count conferees

The chairperson can count the number of conferees that have joined a

conference by dialing *69 (for announcing to the chairperson only), or

*60 (for announcing to the whole conference). The ICB card issues a

string of voice prompts, one for each conferee in the conference, that only

the chairperson hears. If a new conferee joins the conference after the

chairperson activates the command, the ICB card does not count that new

conferee. If the system drops a conferee after the "count the conferees" or

"play list" command, they are counted, but not named.

When the chairperson dials *69/*60, the conferees hear a quiet click.

Table 35 "Chairperson commands during count command" (page 148)

lists the TUI subcommands available to the chairperson when counting

conferees.

Drop all conferees

The chairperson can drop all conferees from the conference, except the

chairperson, by dialing *90. The ICB does not issue an announcement to the

conferees before disconnecting. After the system disconnects the conferees,

the ICB card issues an announcement to the chairperson indicating that

there are no conferees on the conference. The announcement is followed

by 60 seconds of music. The conference remains active, so conferees can

dial in again.

Drop last dialed conferee

The chairperson can drop the last conferee to join the conference through

dial-out by dialing *91. The chairperson can drop the last conferee to dial in

by dialing *92. These commands are not repeatable (that is, the chairperson
