If the bridging user has no other available bridged appearances of
the primary extension (other than the one he or she is currently on),
the bridging user, after pressing the conference/transfer button, must
select a call appearance to be used for the transfer, before dialing the
number.
■ Multiappearance telephones
If the bridging user has at least one available bridged appearance of the
primary extension (other than the one he or she is currently on), the system
automatically selects a bridged call appearance for the transfer when the
conference/transfer button is pressed.
You can administer the system to automatically select the first idle
appearance if there is no idle appearance with an extension matching the
extension that is transferring the call.
If the primary user and the bridged user are both on the call when one user
transfers the call, the user performing the transfer becomes the controlling
user for the participation of both users on the conference. The controlling
user is immediately dropped from the call. When the noncontrolling user
hangs up, the appearance goes on soft hold. In this case, one of two things
must occur to disassociate the appearance from the call: all other parties on
the call hang up, or the controlling user rejoins the call and hangs up again.
■ Videophone 2500 (single-line telephones)
A user may not use an analog bridge to a Videophone 2500 principal that is
on a video call.
■ Voice Message Retrieval
A voice message to the primary extension can be retrieved on a bridged
appearance by the bridged appearance user. If a security code is required to
retrieve the message, the bridging user must use the security code of the
primary telephone.
■ Voice Paging
The use of Voice Paging automatically invokes exclusion. Therefore,
interactions for this feature are the same as for Privacy-Manual Exclusion.
