calls are on different lines, transfer them to a single line before using Confrn or Join.
• If you get an error stating, "No Participant Info" when attempting to use Join, be sure
that you have selected at least one call in addition to the active call, which is selected
automatically.

the conference might end. See the last row of the above table for more information.

Starting or Joining a Meet-Me Conference Call

Meet-Me conferencing allows participants to join a conference by calling the conference number
directly, rather than waiting for the conference initiator to call them. See the following table for
details.

Then...
Highlight the participant's name and press Remove. You can remove
participants only if you initiated the conference call.
Hang up or press EndCall. If you did not initiate the conference call,
hanging up will not disrupt the connection for the remaining parties.
If you initiated the conference call, hanging up might end the
conference (depending on how your system administrator configured
your phone). To avoid this, you can transfer the conference to
another caller before hanging up. That caller then acts as the "virtual
controller" for the conference. A virtual controller cannot add or
remove parties; however, the conference continues with the
established participants.
