| The conference feature allows you to add additional parties to a call so you may conduct a telephone conference. Use this feature to include others in a discussion. For single line sets conferencing is limited to 3 callers. Multi-line users may have up to a six-way conference. Two of the participants in a conference call can be at outside numbers. |
