From a Multiline Terminal within the Electra _VarkII system, lift the handset and depress
the line key assigned as the control line for the CONFER9 unit.
7.1.2
When CO dial tone is heard, dial 199 to initiate a conference call. Note that dial tone is
broken momentarily and new dial tone is received indicating that the CONFER unit is
enabled.
7.1.3
Dial the telephone number of the first party to be conferenced. When the first party answers,
inform the party that you are initiating a conference call and then dial 1. Dialing t puts the
party on hold and new dial tone is received. (If dialing 1 returns busy tone, this indicates that
no more lines are available).
NOTE: When dialing a telephone number, do not wait more than 5 seconds between digits.
Also, after the telephone number is dialed, wait at least 5 seconds before depressing
command digits 1, 2, or 3. This time delay is required by the system to differentiate
between the called telephone number and the command digit.

Repeat step 7.1.3 for all parties to be conferenced. If a mistake is made in dialing, or if the
number dialed is busy, dial 2 to disconnect the last number called (Wrong number or busy
number).
