Tips

If you frequently join more than two parties into a single conference, you may find it useful to first select
the calls that you want to join together, and then press Join to complete the action.
•
When Join completes, the caller ID changes to Conference.
•
You may be able to combine multiple conference calls by using the Join or DirTrfr softkeys. Contact
your system administrator to see if this feature is available to you.
•
A Call Chaperone user can conference only the first caller. Subsequent callers can be conferenced by
the other participants in the conference.
