Performing a Blind Transfer
When you use a blind transfer, you transfer a call without speaking to the
party to whom you’re transferring the call. The call is automatically
transferred as soon as you dial the party’s number.
To perform a blind transfer:
1
During a call, tap the
Transfer
soft key or press
.
2
From the Transfer to: screen, tap the
Blind
soft key.
3
From the Blind transfer to: screen, place a call to the party to whom you
want to transfer the call. (See
“Placing Calls”
on page 28.)
If you want to cancel the transfer (before the call is placed), and return to
the original call, tap the
Cancel
soft key.
The call automatically transfers to the party you specified.
Setting Up Conference Calls
You can create a conference with two other parties using the phone’s local
conference feature. During a conference call, your phone can exchange video
with only one conference participant (even if more than one participant can
send video). The participant with whom you exchange video depends on how
you set up the conference. You also have the option of choosing the participant
with whom to exchange video.
During a conference, you have access to the conference management feature.
This feature allows you to manage each participant in the conference call. You
can mute, hold, and remove individual participants, as well as choose the
conference participant with whom to exchange video. For more information,
see
“Managing Conference Call Participants”
on page 46.
