If you have an active call and a call on hold (either on the same Line Key

or a different Line Key), tap the Join soft key.
The Conference screen displays.
A conference is created with the active call, the call on hold, and yourself.

The conference call takes place on the Line Key from which you handled

the last active call.
If the participant who was previously on hold can exchange video, you

will exchange video with that participant. If the participant who was on

hold cannot exchange video, you will exchange video with the other

participant.

Holding and Resuming Conference Calls

participants on hold.
To place a specific participant on hold, see

Participants”

The other participants in the conference call are placed on hold. The

Conference window is minimized and placed in the inactive call group.

selected, and then tap the Resume soft key. To end the conference call and

place all other conference call participants on hold, tap the Split soft key.

You can only set up a conference with an active call and a call on hold if you only
have one call on hold. If you have more than one call on hold, you have to set up a
conference using the Conference key or soft key.
