Description
General Options section
Click in this box to define an emergency conference with an associated call
group. The system automatically calls the specified group's members from the
conference when the chairperson dials the conference. The selection box lists
existing groups in the card.
This type of conference is for invoking emergency personnel (for example,
firemen).
Define how the system announces when people enter or exit a conference. The
following options are available from the pull-down menu:
• Play name on entry and name on exit (the default).
• Play name on entry and tone on exit.
• Play tone on entry and tone on exit.
• Silence (no indication for entry or exit).
Select the language the system uses for voice prompts during the conference.
The pull-down menu offers the set of languages available in the system. The
default is the MICB card's default language.
When using single-number access, the preferred language takes affect after the
caller enters the conference ID and password. Before that the system uses the
default language.
Click on this box to reserve a port for the chairperson. When all the ports are
occupied but one, and the chairperson has not yet dialed in, the remaining port
is not available for a participant. If this box is not checked, the system uses the
ports on a first-come first-serve basis. In this case, if all the ports are taken up
by participants, the system will not allow the chairperson to enter the conference.
Default: the option is checked (on).
