Call functions
Conventional calling and picking up calls with the IP telephone IP240 is no different to
other telephones. It is simple and intuitive. This chapter deals with using additional
features.
2.1. Setting up two connections
The possibilities for setting up two connections are as follows:
1. There is a call on hold. You can make a call to another subscriber.
2. Someone tries to call you whilst you are on the phone. You can accept a waiting
call.
2.1.1 Administering a waiting call
Someone tries to call you whilst you are on the phone. The waiting call is not accepted
automatically. You can accept a waiting call using the arrow keys or the key sequence
consultation key “R” and “2”.
2.1.2 Dialling a new number
Whilst connected with an active call partner, you can set up a new connection by calling
another subscriber. You have the possibility to transfer an active call or initiate a
conference.
Key
Effect
1. Press the consultation key during a call. The active call partner is put
on hold and you can hear a dial tone. The active connection is
indicated against a dark background on your display.
2. A connection is set up to the call number dialled. If the subscriber
answers, you can make a consultation before the transfer.
Tip:
The connection set up is deleted again if you press the
consultation key and 1 once more before the consultation
connection is set up.
3. Replace the handset or, if you are in hands-free mode, press the
Loudspeaker key. The caller will be connected.
4. If, after the consultation, you no longer want to transfer the call there,
you can end this active connection by pressing the Clearing key. You
are then connected with the call that was previously on hold.
You can use the Menu function key to set up a conference (see chapter 2.2.)
