Tips

• Calls must be on the same line before you can add them to a standard conference call. If calls are

on different lines, transfer them to a single line before using Confrn or Join.

• If you get an error stating, “No Participant Info” when attempting to use Join, be sure that you

have selected at least one call in addition to the active call, which is selected automatically.

• Depending on how your phone is configured, if you leave a conference after creating it, the

conference might end. See the last row of the above table for more information.

Starting or Joining a Meet-Me Conference Call

Use Meet-Me conferences to start a conference (up to 100 parties, depending on configuration) that

requires participants to call an established number at a specific time. This is an optional feature that

your system administrator must configure for you.

Remove any conference

participant

Highlight the participant’s name and press Remove. You can remove

participants only if you initiated the conference call.

End your participation in a

standard conference

Hang up or press EndCall. If you did not initiate the conference call,

hanging up will not disrupt the connection for the remaining parties.

If you initiated the conference call, hanging up might end the

conference (depending on how your system administrator configured

your phone). To avoid this, you can transfer the conference to

another caller before hanging up. That caller then acts as the “virtual

controller” for the conference. A virtual controller cannot add or

remove parties; however, the conference continues with the

established participants.
