Call Conference 
(Three-Way Calling)

Call Conference (also referred to as Three-Way Calling or TWC) allows you to add 
another party to an existing call. This feature can be used whether you have 
received or have placed the first call.

You cannot conference two incoming calls. You must initiate the second call in 
order to activate Call Conference.

Call Transfer

Call Transfer is a voice call feature that allows you to transfer a call to a third party. 
This feature can be used whether you have received or have placed the first call.

Table 2   

How to Use Call Conference 

How Do I

Do This

Place a new conference call? While the first call is active, press and release the switch hook 

button. The B channel LED light flashes to indicate that the first 
call is on hold, and you will hear a dial tone. Then dial a third 
party number.

After the third party has answered, press and release the switch 
hook button to connect all three parties.

Drop the last party added to 
the conference call?

To drop the last party added to the conference call, press and 
release the switch hook button.

Abort the second call and 
switch back to the first call?

If the dialed party is busy, press and release the switch hook 
button to cancel the call and reconnect to the first call. 

If you dialed a wrong number, or the far end does not answer, 
hang up the phone to abort the attempted call. The phone will 
then ring, indicating that the first call is on hold. Answer the 
phone to reconnect to the first call.

What if I hear a dial tone 
when I attempt to 
conference all three parties?

A dial tone indicates that one of the parties has dropped their 
call. Press and release the switch hook button to return to the 
previously active call. You can then conference a third party as 
described previously.

What if the telephone rings 
after I hang up?

While you try to conference a call, the active call will be put on 
hold to allow you to dial a new call. If you hang up the phone 
before the call is connected, the telephone will ring to let you 
know that you still have a call on hold.

Table 3   

How to Use Call Transfer

How Do I

Do This

Place a new call?

While the first call is active, press and release the switch hook 
button, wait for the dial tone, and then dial a third party 
number.

After the third party has answered, press and release the switch 
hook button to conference all three parties, and then hang up 
the telephone to transfer the call. 

Cancel the second call and 
switch back to the first call?

If the dialed party is busy, press and release the switch hook 
button to cancel the attempted call and reconnect to the first 
call. If you hang up, the phone will ring back, indicating that 
you have a call on hold.

If you dialed a wrong number, or the far end does not answer, 
hang up the phone to abort the attempted call. The phone will 
then ring, indicating that the first call is on hold. Answer the 
phone to reconnect to the first call.
