A member extension can inform the caller that he wants to speak or join the conversation by sending a
notification. The caller will hear a notification tone and the requesting extension's information will be shown on
the display for five seconds.
Conference Groups
Eight conference groups can be programmed, and a maximum of 7 members (31 members in Broadcast Mode)
can be assigned to each group. The available destinations as members of the conference group are as follows:

Incoming Call Distribution Group
PS Ring Group
UM Group
VM Group (DTMF/DPT)

Other PBX Extension (TIE with no PBX Code)
Other PBX Extension (TIE with PBX Code)
*1 Only available when the networking type of the trunk is assigned as private.
Join After Time Out
When conference group members do not answer a conference group call within the preprogrammed time limit,
the member's telephones will stop ringing. However, even after the time limit has expired, members can join
the conference.
Additionally, extension users not registered in the called conference group can join a conference after it has
started. Outside callers using DISA and TIE line users can also join a conference after accessing their extension
using Walking COS.
An entry code can also be specified to restrict access to the call. The entry code can be set when the caller
initiates the conference group call. If an entry code is to be set, usually the caller will inform call participants in
advance.
[Starting a Conference Group Call using Hands-free Answerback]
Hands-free Answerback can be enabled for conference group member extensions. By initiating a conference
group call with a conference group that includes an extension that has Hands-free Answerback
(® 2.4.4 Hands-free Answerback) enabled, such as a softphone, the call can be automatically answered and
the conference begins with only one participant (the initiator of the conference group call). Then, up to 6
participants can use Join After Time Out to join the conference. For example, a manager can organise a
meeting where all the members are calling from cellular phones and use Join After Time Out to join the
conference.
