Options during a call
Your Thuraya XT DUAL offers a number of options which are only
available during a call.
You cannot use all of these features at all times, because they
vary depending on the individual call situation.
Put a call on hold:
You can interrupt a call temporarily without shutting down the
connection.
Muting / Unmuting the microphone:
You can switch off the microphone so that the caller is not able
to hear you.
Conference calls
Incoming call:
When Party1 is receiving a call from Party3, while talking with
Party2, Party1 can ‘accept’ or ‘reject’ the call from Party3 using
the softkeys.
If the call is rejected, the conversation between Party1 and
Party2 is not affected.
If the call is accepted, Party2 is put on hold and Party1 is
connected to the call from Party3.
Using the option menu, Party1 can swap over Party2 and
Party3, or operate a multi-party call up to 6 users including
Party1.
Outgoing call:
If Party1 wants to make a call to Party3 while talking with
Party2, using the option menu puts Party2 on hold and enters
Party3’s phone number. To include Party2 in the conversation
with Party3, select ‘Conference call’ on the option menu.
Party2 and Party3 can be swapped over. Up to 6 users
including Party1 can have a conversation simultaneously.
