5-24 MERLIN Plus System Features
If you share a line with another person, you can join (or "bridge" onto) a call in
progress on that line. In this way you can easily join a conference call by just
touching a line button and Speakerphone or lifting your handset.
(See "Conference.")
Up to three people connected to the MERLIN Plus system, including the
originator of the call, can bridge onto a call atone time. When a person bridges
onto a call in progress, the red and green lights next to the line button on your
voice terminal flash alternately so that you know that someone else has joined
the call.
You cannot use the Bridging feature on a voice terminal with Button-Free
Line Operation.
If a person has activated the Privacy feature on his or her voice terminal, you
cannot bridge onto a call in progress at that voice terminal. (See "Privacy.")
