With PTs and KX-TCA175/KX-TCA275/KX-TCA185/KX-TCA285/KX-TCA385 PSs, a
conference group call can be automatically answered without going off-hook. This mode is
selected through system programming.
•
If the Hands-free Answerback feature is enabled, the called extension can answer the
conference group call without going off-hook. KX-UT series SIP phones do not support the
Hands-free Answerback feature for a conference group call.
•
If using an SLT, SIP phone, or S-PS, the caller can only originate a conference group call
and cannot control the called parties’ call status manually.
