Calling more than one using MultiSite (EX90 only)

Assume that you already are in
a call. This call may have been
initiated by you or by someone
else (someone have called
you).
Place the call, in the usual way.
You may alter the Call settings
of that call before you place
it—see the side bar on this page.
This is an optional feature that may, or may not, be available on your system.
Tap Add,
as outlined.
This new call will now be
added to the existing, thus
creating a conference.
You may cancel this
call, as outlined, without
terminating the first call you
were in.
Locate whom to call, in
the usual way.
To add more participants repeat
the procedure. A maximum of
four video participants (yourself
included) and one audio-only may
take part in the conference.
If you are the one who initiated
the conference initiated the
conference you will be able to
terminate the entire conference
as well. The other participants,
however, may only disconnect
themselves from the conference.
About MultiSite
If your video system is equipped
with the optional MultiSite feature
(EX90 only) you may call more than
one to initiate a video conference.
The MultiSite feature allows you to
call three other systems on video
plus a fourth system on audio only
(for example a mobile phone).
This means that the conference
can consist of up to four video
participants (yourself included) and
one audio participant.
If you want to initiate a video
conference, you must call each
participant one by one.
Call settings. Those you call may
have video systems with different
capabilities. One or more of them
may, for example, be on an ADSL
system with limited bandwidth
(compared to those of the other
participants). You may then set the
Call settings to a (normally lower)
call rate suiting his or her system
before you call that person. However,
that call rate will affect that specific
part of the video conference
only. Other participants will not
experience a lower call rate because
of this.
