Add Additional Participants to Existing Call

Assume that you already are in
a call. This call may have been
initiated by you or by someone
else (someone called you).
Place the call, in the usual way.
You may alter the Call settings
of that call before you place
it—see side bar for more.
This is an optional feature that may, or may not, be installed on your system.
Tap Add.
You may be
prompted to tap
Merge to create the
conference.
Locate whom to call, in
the usual way.
This new call will now be
added to the existing, thus
creating a conference. You
may cancel this call without
terminating the first call you
were in.
About Video Conferences
Your video system may be equipped
with the capability to initiate a video
conference with several participants.
The maximum number of participants
supported by your video system will
depend on system configuration and
the video infrastructure. If in doubt,
contact your video support team.
If you want to initiate a video
conference, you must call each
participant one by one.
If you are the one who initiated
the conference you will be able to
terminate the entire conference as
well. The other participants, however,
may only disconnect themselves
from the conference.
Call settings. Those you call may
have video systems with different
bandwidths. You are not constrained
to set all participants to a bandwidth
that all systems support. The Call
rate may be set individually for all
participants in order to provide
everyone with the best quality
available for their system. See
"Change Call Rate" on page 20.
