Conference Combinations
Only stations that have Conference enabled are able to institute a conference.
Add-On Conference -- Up to eight internal parties can engage in a conference, or seven
internal parties with a limit of one external party. A maximum of five 8-party conferences
(five external parties max.) can be established.
Multi-Line Conference -- One internal station can engage in a conference with no more
than five outside parties.
Establishing a Conference
1. Lift handset.
2. Select intercom station or dial desired outside party.
3. When called party answers, press the CONF button.
4. Add next conference party by selecting another outside line or intercom station.
5. If the next conference party is an outside line and a busy or wrong number is
encountered, press one of the conference parties on hold. This drops the busy or wrong
number party. Press the CONF button again and repeat step 4.
6. When party answers, press the CONF button twice. (All parties are connected.)
Exiting a Conference (Controller Only)
There are three (3) methods of exiting a conference:
1 -- Press the ON/OFF button to ON, press the MUTE button, and replace the handset (to
monitor a conference).
Use the following methods only if multi-line conference is in progress:
2 -- Press HOLD button to place outside parties on hold. Hold timer starts. If one of the two
parties is internal, that party is dropped.
3 -- Press CONF and hang up or press the ON/OFF button to leave the other conference
parties still connected in an unsupervised conference. The CONF button flashes and the timer
starts. There is a warning tone before the other parties are dropped.
Re-Entering a Conference
When the controller re-enters a conference, the disconnect timer is reset.
1. Lift handset to re-enter a monitored conference.
2. To re-enter a conference placed on hold, repeat steps for establishing a conference.
3. To re-enter an unsupervised conference, lift handset and press flashing CONF button. The
CONF button lights steady and a confirmation tone sounds.
A maximum of eight parties can be included in a conference.
