Speeddial/Conference Key (not applicable to the 6751i)

The IP Phones allow you to configure a softkey/programmable key/expansion
module key to be used as a speeddial conference key (Speeddial/Conf key) while
remaining in the current call. This key allows a user on a call, to conference
another party at a pre-defined number while remaining in the conference.
For example, while on an active call, a user can use the Speeddial/Conf key to dial
a recording service and have the resulting conference recorded.
How it Works
If you configure a softkey/programmable key/expansion module as a Speeddial/
Conf key, and you press this key while on an active call, the focused line changes
to the dialing line. A Cancel softkey displays on the phone (only those phones
that have LCDs larger then 3 lines), allowing you to abort the conference
speeddial if required. The message "Ringing..." displays below the number when
the far end is ringing. The message "Conf. Unavailable" briefly displays when a
conference is already in progress or when the CT handset is in use. The active call
is not put on hold when the speeddial number is dialed.
Limitations for Speeddial/Conference Key
The following are limitations for the Speeddial/Conference key:
• The CT handsets are not supported.
• The feature is not compatible with centralized conferencing.
The softkey/programmable key is called "Speeddial/Conf" in the Web UI drop
down list. In the configuration file, use "speeddialconf" as the softkey type.
5-184
Note: If not currently in a conference, the Speeddial/Conf key is disabled
on the active call.
