Multi-Party Operations -Three-Party Service
Multi-Party Operations Enhancements
The patience tone or the Misoperation ringback is not applied to a conference
party.
Music
With basic Music on Hold, when a call is placed on consultation hold while
a Conference is being established, music does not play. Enhanced Music
(EMUS) package 119 is required for music on consultation hold (see “Music,
Enhanced” on page 2297).
Music, Enhanced
The held party receives Music when the Conference key is pressed, while the
conference is being established, and whenever the conference is reduced to
two parties with one party on Hold. Once the conference is established, Music
is no longer provided.
A Six-party Conference operates the same as a Three-party Conference.
Network and Executive Distinctive Ringing
If a new party is to be included in an established conference, the ringing that
is applied to the set of the new party depends on the sets of the established
parties. The system scans the trunks and sets of the conferees for a trunk
marked as distinctive or a set designated as executive. The ringing cadence of
the new set depends on the highest index found by the scan.
Network Intercom
A Conference call may involve a mixture of intercom and regular DN keys.
No Hold Conference
This feature can be enabled at any time that a regular Conference-6 feature
can be activated.
Off-Hook Alarm Security
The Off-Hook Alarm Security (OHAS) line lockout treatment occurs when a
telephone associated with an OHAS DN initiates a Conference call and the
ASTM expires. Only the Conference initiator receives the OHAS treatment;
other conferees remain in Conference. If the initiator of the Conference call
presses the Conference key, the OHAS DN is conferenced in with the other
conferees.
