Conference

Conference lets you add additional inside and outside callers to your conversation. With Conference, you can set up a multiple-
party telephone meeting without leaving the office. The system allows either four or eight parties maximum per Conference.
To set up a Conference:
1. Place or answer call.
2. CONF or FUNCTION KEY (Conference).
3. Place or answer next call.
To access the outside call, either press a line key or dial a trunk access code. See Outside Calls for more.
4. CONF or FUNCTION KEY (Conference).
You may be able to have up to 32 callers. Repeat this step to add more parties.
5. After adding all parties, press CONF again to begin the Conference.
To exit a Conference (without affecting the other parties):
1. TALK to hang up.
You can set up a Conference with two outside callers and then drop out of the call -- leaving the callers talking
in an Unsupervised Conference. Refer to Tandem Trunking for more.

Conference, Voice Call

With Voice Call Conference, others in your work area can easily join into your outside calls. To initiate a Voice Call Conference,
press a uniquely programmed Voice Call Conference key and tell your co-workers to join the call. The system releases the priva-
cy on the line, and other users can just press the line key to join in. The system allows either four or eight parties maximum per
Conference. Voice Call Conference does not use the telephone system features to announce the call. You just announce it
"through the air" to your co-workers.
To set up a Voice Call Conference with a co-worker in your immediate work area:
1. Place or answer trunk call.
2. FUNCTION KEY (Voice Call Conference).
3. Announce Voice Call Conference.
Just tell your co-worker's about the call. Do not use telephone system features to announce it.
To join a Voice Call Conference (if invited):
1. After Conference request, press indicated line key.
To exit a Voice Call Conference without affecting the other parties:
1. TALK to hang up.

Department Calling

If you work closely with a group of co-workers, your Communications Manager may have programmed you into a Department
Calling Group. Department Calling makes it easier for others in your company to send calls to your group. This is because your
Department Calling Group has a dedicated pilot number. To get a free group member, co-workers can just dial the pilot number
instead of the group member's extensions. If you don't want to receive Department Calls, you can log out of your group. You can
log back in when you again want to receive calls.
Calls into your Department Group can route in two different ways: Priority Routing and Circular Routing. With Priority Routing,
incoming calls route to your group's highest priority extensions first.
