9.8 Exiting a Conference
·
Note: If you are the only internal user in the conference, depending on your telephone system's configuration,
dropping yourself might end the conference. Consult your system administrator for details.
To exit/leave a conference:
1. If not already highlighted, press the up or down cursor keys to display and highlight the conference call.
2. Press the Details soft key.
3. Normally your own name is already selected by default. However, if not use the up or down cursor keys to select
your own name.
4. Press Drop.
9.9 Context Sensitive Conferencing
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 or Conference. For
example:
·
To conference the current call and a particular held call:
Scroll the call display to highlight the required held call. Press Conf or Conference. 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 behaviour 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 like one-X Portal for IP Office.

affecting any currently connected or held calls.
·
On most phones in the series, the background shading indicates the currently highlighted call.
·
The soft keys at the bottom of the display automatically change to reflect actions that can be performed on
the call, if any, associated with the currently highlighted button.
