Conference Calling

To Begin a Conference: 

  • With the first caller on the line, press the conference button , then dial the number for the new caller, and then press the conference button again; this puts the first caller on hold while you contact the second caller.
  • To bring both callers into the call, select the “Conf” tab by using the tab’s selector button; now all three calls are connected.
  • The above steps can be repeated to add additional callers.
  • Note: while the first caller is adding additional lines, the other callers on the other existing lines can continue speaking to one another.          

To Remove a Caller from the Line:

  • While in the conference call, select the “Details” tab by using the tab’s selector button. This will display all lines presently on the call.
  • Use the up/down control on the select button to navigate to the line that you want to remove from the call.
  • When the call is highlighted, select the “Remove” tab by using the tab’s selector button.  
  • The selected line is now disconnected, but all additional lines will remain active.
