General Description
This feature permits the Attendant to establish a conference among as many as eight parties. The
conferees may consist of any combination of stations and/or trunks, whether inside or outside parties.
Operating Procedure
To activate ATTENDANT CONTROLLED CONFERENCE:
1.
Station calls Attendant to request conference.
2.
Attendant connects a party to one of the assigned line circuits.
3.
Attendant sequentially calls all desired parties and connects them to the other line circuits on the
conference.
4.
Once all parties are connected, the conference leader with a push-button telephone may dial
digit "0" to block additional participants, thereby assuring privacy.
5.
If the conference leader dials the digit "#", all conferees will be disconnected. Otherwise, the
conference is terminated only after all parties have hung up.
6.
To release from a conference circuit individually, a station user must hang up. The remaining
conferees may continue without interruption.
Service Conditions

Conference units are designed to provide adequate amplification, but the condition of the Central
Office connections will affect transmission.
2.

group with only the pilot number being published.
3.
If the conference leader connected to the conference unit dials digit "#" during the course of the
conference, all conferees will be disconnected.
4.
The conference leader with a push-button telephone must be connected to level 0 of the
conference circuit.
