Unsupervised Conference
A Digital phone user may establish a conference with external parties and exit the conference
while allowing the external parties to converse privately without supervision from the user.
The system will disconnect the Unsupervised conference if disconnect is detected with only two
parties connected or at expiration of the Unsupervised Conference timer. A Disconnect
Warning tone is provided fifteen seconds prior to expiration of the timer.
If enabled, either party in an Unsupervised Conference can request the Unsupervised
Conference timer be extended. The party enters the Timer Extension feature code and a digit
1 to 9 indicating the Timer extension multiplier; the system will then extend the timer based on
the dialed digit multiple of the Timer. For example, if the Unsupervised Conference timer is 5
minutes and the user dials the digit 4, the timer will extend to 20 minutes (4 multiplied by 5
minutes).
CONDITIONS
- The Unsupervised Conference Timer will also apply to an external call placed by a
DISA user.
- An Unsupervised conference will be terminated if the system receives a disconnect
signal or the Unsupervised Conference Timer expires.
