Group Calls (Conference) 5600-5849
Group Calls are conference calls, allowing participation of up
to 250 members at a time. Two options are offered: a) preset
Group Calls comprised of predefined members, b) Add On
(Temporary) Group Calls containing no predefined members,
where participants are added from the Group Call initiator
station. Each Group Call has its own unique dial number.
Group Call members can be internal stations or external
numbers dialed through Public Library numbers.
When a Group Call is placed, all stations defined as registered
members for that particular group ring. As a member joins the
conference (i.e. answers the incoming group call ring), all
actively participating members can be alerted by a defined
warning tone.
Unanswered stations will continue ringing until the defined
timeout period is completed, without disturbing the
conference.
Depending on the system settings, a warning tone may be
heard by a conference initiator upon activating the group call,
and by all the participants every time a participant joins (or
leaves) an ongoing conference.
Group members may be blocked from joining the conference
once the ringing has stopped. The conference may, if desired,
be locked to those users that are not listed on the system as the
conference registered members. When the Group Call is not
locked, the non-registered members may join an ongoing
conference by dialing the Group Call access code, or be
connected by a registered member.
The conference is controlled by a user defined as the Group
Operator.
Participants may join a conference with the ability to speak, or
they may join in the mute mode in which they can only hear
others allowed to speak. In case of a muted conference, only
the Group Call initiator has the right to speak. Other
participants can be granted permission to speak by the Group
Operator. These options are set in the Group Call definitions.
An authorized user can force release a participant or terminate
an entire conference.
