Audio Conference Calls

You can initiate an audio conference call with two contacts and hold, resume, or split a
conference call on your VVX 411 phone.
VVX 411 phones can manage a maximum of 12 active or held conference calls at a time.
However, you can have only one active conference call in progress with numerous other
conference calls on hold.
If your system administrator enables the Conference Management feature on your phone, you
can manage each participant in the call. With the Conference Management feature, you can
mute, hold, and remove individual participants in a conference call.

Initiate a Conference Call

You can initiate a conference by calling two people and selecting the Conference soft key or hard
key.
Note: When your phone is set up for single key press conferences, you do not need to tap the
Conference soft key or press the Conference key a second time to join parties to a conference
call.
1. Call a contact.
2. After the contact answers, select the Conference soft key.
The call
is held.
3. Enter another contact's number or select a contact from the directory or the call lists.
4. When the contact answers, select the Conference soft key.
All call participants are added to a conference call.

Join Calls to Create a Conference Call

You can join one active call and one held call into a conference call. If you have more than
one call on hold, you can select a held call to join into a conference call with the active call.
1. Do one of the following:
•
When you have an active call and a held call, select the Join soft key.
•
When you have an active call and more than one held call, select a held call and
then select the Join soft key.
The active call and the selected held call are joined into a conference. If you have
multiple held calls, the other held calls on the line remain held.
