Hosting Local Conference Calls
You can create a conference with up to two other parties using the phone’s
local conference feature. To quickly set up a conference, you can use the
Join soft key to create a conference between an active call and a call on hold.
After you set up a conference, you can hold the conference call, split the
conference call into individual calls on hold, or end the conference call (and
your connection to the conference call participants).
This section includes the following topics:

Setting Up Conferences
You can set up a conference in one of two ways:
• Using the Confrnc soft key.
• Using the Join soft key, if you have an active call and a call on hold.
Setting Up a Conference Using the Conference Soft Key
To set up a conference using the Conference soft key:
1. Call the first party. See Placing Calls on page 3-2.
2. Press the Confrnc soft key. The active call is placed on hold.
3. Enter the number of the second party, and then press the Send soft key.
4. When the second party answers, press the Confrnc soft key to join all
parties in the conference.
Note
If configured for single key-press conferences, the conference participant hears the
dial tone and ringback when the conference host places the call to the new party.
