Add Yourself to Call on Shared Line
Barge allows you to add yourself to non-private calls on a shared line. You can convert the call into a conference
and add new participants.
Procedure
Press the red Line button for the shared line.
You are added to the call.
Enable Privacy on Shared Line
Privacy allows you to prevent others who share your line from seeing information about your calls.
Privacy applies to all shared lines on your phone. If you have multiple shared lines and Privacy is enabled,
others cannot view any of your shared lines.
If the phone that shares your line has Privacy enabled, you can make and receive calls using the shared line
as usual.
Procedure
Step 1
Press Privacy to enable the feature.
Visual confirmation displays on your phone screen for as long as the feature is enabled.
Step 2
Press Privacy again to turn off the feature.
Toggle Prompt for Barge
By default, the Barge Alert option is set to Off and you can barge into an eligible shared lined without receiving
a prompt. When the Barge Alert is set to On, an alert prompt is displayed. Select Yes to barge into the call or
No to cancel the barge.
For more information, contact your administrator.
Procedure
Step 1
On your phone, go to Applications > Settings.
Step 2
At the Barge Alert menu item, click On to enable the alert or Off to enable Barge.
By default, the barge alert prompt is toggled Off.
