Menu Option 2
The second option depends on whether the Conference has two internal
participants or two external participants.
If there are two internal participants, the second option shows the Handset # or
the Handset Name (if provided) of the other internal participant.
If there are two external participants, the second option shows the second
external line # and the CID (or Phone Dir) information for that second
participant.
When this line, whether internal or external, is dropped from the Conference,
the remaining two participants remain in an active connection.
Drop All
The third option is always Drop All. When Drop All is selected, all connections
are broken and the handset returns to the Idle state. Any internal participant can
select this option at anytime to end the Conference.
Leave Conference
Note:
Leave
Conference is
not available if
the Conference
has two
external
participants.
If the Conference has two internal participants, the fourth option is Leave
Conference. When Leave Conference is available and selected, the handset
that selects it leaves the Conference, returns to the Idle state, and the remaining
single internal and single external participants remain in an active connection.
Hold
If the Conference has two external participants, the fourth option is Hold. When
Hold is available and selected, the handset that selects it leaves the Conference,
returns to the Idle state, and the remaining two external participants are left on
“Conference Hold”. When this occurs, both external line keys “wink” on all
handsets, which means that the user of any handset can press either key and
retrieve the Conference. Pressing either of the Line keys re-establishes the entire
Conference.
