Setting Up Multiple Conferences (for Sylantro Call Manager only)
If any party in a conference hangs up (including the party that began the conference), all other parties in the conference
are still connected.
Joining Additional Parties to Active Conferences
In centralized conferencing, you can join multiple incoming or outgoing calls to active conferences. Before following this
procedure, at least one active conference must exist on your phone.
Ending a Conference and Transferring Remaining Parties
The 6867i allows a host to easily leave a three-way conference call without disrupting the connection of the other two
remaining parties. If you are the host of a conference call and want to leave the conference, simply press the
Leave
softkey on the phone. Your phone leaves the three-way conference call but the remaining parties are still connected
together.
Ending Calls
To end a call, you first need to connect or reconnect to the call if not already connected (e.g. if your caller is on hold). Press
or the
Drop
softkey to end the call. If connected through the handset, you can also place the handset back on
hook to end the call.
Note:
The 6867i is limited to 9 conferences (a single conference each on lines 1 through 9).
