The previous starting a conference method in this manual covers just simple scenarios where
you want your current call and all held calls to be conferenced together. However, there may be
some scenarios where you have multiple calls in progress where you may want to only conference
particular calls.
This can be done by scrolling the display to change which call is highlighted when you press Conf.
For example:
• To conference the current call and a particular held call: Scroll the call display to highlight
the required held call. Press Conf. That held call is conferenced with your current call without
affecting any other held calls.
The table below summarizes which calls are conferenced based on which call is currently
highlighted on the telephone's display. A 'held pending transfer' call is one which has been put
on hold by pressing
Conf or Transfer.
The below only applies to conferences initiated from the telephone. The traditional behavior of
conferencing the current and all held calls regardless of hold type still applies if the conference is
initiated from elsewhere, for example an application.
