8.6 Context Sensitive Conferencing

The starting a conference
where you have no other calls in progress on the phone. In those scenarios, the current call and all held calls are
conferenced.
However, in some scenarios where you have multiple calls in progress, you may want to conference just particular calls.
This can be done by scrolling the display to change which call is highlighted when you press Conf or Conference.
For example:
· To conference the current call and a particular held call:
Scroll the call display to highlight the required held call. Press Conf or Conference. That held call is conference
with your current call without affecting any other held calls.
The table below summarizes which calls are conferenced based on which call is currently highlighted on the telephone's
display. A 'held pending transfer' call is one which has been put on hold by pressing either Conference or Transfer.

· Changing which call is currently highlighted
On phones with a set of cursor keys, the up and down cursor keys can be used to select the current highlighted
call appearance, even while there is a currently connected call.
Note: The above only applies to conferences initiated from the telephone. The traditional behaviour of conferencing the
current and all held calls regardless of hold type still applies if the conference is initiated from elsewhere such as from an
application like one-X Portal for IP Office.
