Conference Calls; Station Conferencing - Altigen AltiView Manual

Conference Calls

There are two types of conference calls in AltiView:
• Station conferencing. In this type of conferencing, when you're on a
call, you can dial a third party and then conference that party in to the
call. Any internal user is able to add parties to this type of conference
call.
• MeetMe conference. If your company has this feature available, you
can schedule a meeting to take place at a specified time in the future
and invite people to the meeting. Invited people call the MeetMe
conference extension number to join the meeting at the designated
meeting time. (See "MeetMe Conference" on page 26.)

Station Conferencing

Note: In order to conference incoming calls, Single Call Waiting,
Multiple Call Waiting or Live Call Waiting must be checked in
the AltiView Configuration window, Call Handling tab.
While connected to the first party:
1. Click the Conference button.
2. In the dialing field, enter the extension or phone number you want to
conference with, then click Dial.
While AltiView dials the new number, the first party goes into Hold
Pending status, and you see a confirmation dialog box.
3. After the third party answers, you can announce the conference by
clicking OK in the dialog box. If the third party does not answer, click
the Cancel button.
