If a single-line telephone with a timed or positive disconnect (for example, Lucent
Technologies model 2500YMGK, 2500MMGK, or 8110M) is used, pressing the
switchhook disconnects the call. With this type of telephone, the Recall or Flash
button must be used instead of the switchhook to add a conference participant or
drop the most recently added conference participant. The 8100M telephone must
have positive disconnect programmed on the telephone, as described in its user
guide.
Feature Interactions 3
Account Code Entry A separate account code must be entered for each outside call added to
the conference.
Allowed/
Disallowed Lists
A user with an outward-restricted extension cannot add an outside
participant to a conference unless the participant’s number is on an
Allowed List assigned to the extension. A user with a toll-restricted
extension cannot dial a toll number to add a participant unless the
participant’s number is on an Allowed List assigned to the extension.
You cannot add an outside number to a conference if the number is on a
Disallowed List assigned to your extension.
Authorization Code Enter an authorization code before each outside call for a conference is
made.
You may enter a different authorization code for different outside calls if
you wish. This may be useful if different restriction privileges are required
for different outside calls for the conference.
Auto Dial When programming an Auto Dial button, press the Conf button to enter
the Flash special character in a telephone number programmed on an
Auto Dial button. Press the Drop button to enter the Stop special
character in a telephone number programmed on an Auto Dial button.
Barge-In Barge-In can be used to interrupt conference calls; all participants hear
the Barge-In tone. Barge-In, however, does not connect the user to a
conference call if the conference already has the maximum number of
participants. If Barge-In is used to connect to a conference call that
involves an outside line/trunk and the person on the outside line/trunk
hangs up, the person using Barge-In is also dropped.
Basic Rate Interface Calls on BRI lines can be part of a conference call that is processed by
the MERLIN LEGEND Communications System rather than by the central
office. The MERLIN LEGEND Communications System determines the
number of active parties on the call.
