Headset Options Headset Auto Answer is disabled and must be activated manually while
an MLX telephone user with a headset is setting up a conference.
Hold The conference originator receives the hold reminder tone when a
conference is on hold for more than one minute because the originator is
pressing the Hold button or adding other participants. If Direct-Line
Console (DLC) operator automatic Hold is programmed and used by a
DLC operator setting up a conference, the entire conference goes on
hold.
Both sides of an inside call cannot be put on hold. Therefore, if a user
presses the Hold button while waiting on hold for a conference initiated
by another user (an inside call), or if a user presses the Conf button while
waiting on hold on an inside call, all participants are disconnected.
HotLine Conference is not available at HotLine extensions (Release 5.0 and later
systems).
Inspect If a user presses the Conf button while Inspect is activated, Inspect is
canceled and the system tries to activate the Conference feature.
When a user joins a conference by using a shared outside line or Shared
SA button, the QCC display reflects the correct number of participants.
However, if the QCC operator uses the Inspect feature to verify the
number of participants, the number shown on the display does not include
participants joining the conference on a shared button.
Multi-Function
Module
The Conference feature cannot be used on the MFM because the system
ignores the switchhook flash sent by the MFM.
Music On Hold If the first participant put on hold for a conference is an outside call, the
caller hears Music On Hold until the second participant is added. When a
conference originator puts the conference on hold, Music On Hold is not
activated.
Paging Speakerphone and loudspeaker paging calls cannot be added to a
conference.
Park Conference calls cannot be parked.
Pickup A conference call cannot be picked up at another extension. A conference
originator can, however, pick up a call and add it to the conference.
Recall/Timed Flash A single-line telephone user with a Recall or Flash button adds a
participant to a conference call and connects all participants by using the
Recall or Flash button. In addition, the Recall or Flash button can be
used either to drop the most recently added participant or to drop a busy
number.
Remote Access An inside user can initiate a conference with the callers involved in a
remote access call by selecting the active remote access line/trunk.
