7.7 Conference Call
In a conference call there are always at least three parties in the same conversation. Hereby, this feature enables
the user to have an ongoing call with more than one person – the parties in a conference call are called
participants.
7.7.1 Establishing a Conference Call
In the following, it is described how to establish a conference call between three parties.
1. Initiate a call with a counterpart so that the handset displays “Connected” as shown below.
2. Press the middle softkey “Conf.” to start a conference call.
3. The second party is put on hold and will hear a tone on hold.
4. Enter the number of the party to invite to the conference and press the green “Off-hook” button
to call this participant.
5. When the called party answers the call, the second party is still on hold, and the conversation is only
between the third party and the first party, i.e. initiator of the conference.
6. To start conversation between the three parties – i.e. a conference – press the middle softkey “Conf.”
The “Conference” screen as seen below will then be displayed, and the three participants will be in a conference
call. Thereby the conversation is between all three parties
NOTE 1: It is possible to invite more participants to the conference by repeating the steps 2. – 6. for one of the
participants in the conference that has not yet invited a party to the conference. Once a participant has invited a
new party to the conference it is not possible for this participant to invite new parties to the conference.
NOTE 2: The maximal number of participants to participate in a conference call is set according to the number of
bases in a system. On a system with two bases it should be possible to have 10 participants in a conference call.
