External Conference Bridge
When
using
an
external
conference
bridge,
the
conference
size
is
not
limited
by
the
phone
but
by
the
conference
bridge.
Check
with
your
phone
administrator
or
service
provider
on
the
size
limit.
Earlier,
we
described
how
to
start
a
3-­‐way
conference,
however,
after
the
conference
is
started,
you
will
notice
that
only
one
connected
call
to
the
conference
bridge
remains
on
the
screen
while
the
two
calls
with
the
initial
two
conferencees
are
removed.
This
indicates
the
two
conferencees
have
also
connected
to
the
conference
bridge
on
their
own.
To
add
another
conferencee,
make
a
new
call
to
the
target
number
or
answer
a
new
incoming
call
from
another
party
-­‐
this
will
automatically
hold
the
current
call
to
the
conference
bridge.
When
the
called
target
rings
or
answers,
highlight
the
call
to
the
conference
bridge
that
is
currently
in
the
Holding
State
and
select
the
“Add
to
Conf”
option.
At
that
point
the
call
to
the
conference
bridge
is
resumed
while
the
new
remote
party
is
also
added
to
the
conference
bridge.
You
can
continue
to
add
more
conferencees
this
way
until
it
reaches
the
limit
set
by
the
conference
bridge.
Group Paging
A
paging
group
is
a
multicast
group
such
that
every
phone
on
the
same
LAN
that
has
joined
the
group
can
send
audio
to
and
receive
audio
from
other
members
of
the
group.
A
multicast
group
is
defined
with
a
multicast
address.
Each
OBi1000
phone
supports
two
multicast
groups
that
are
configurable
by
the
administrator.
The
administrator
may
also
assign
a
feature
key
for
users
to
join
or
leave
each
group.
Consult
your
phone
administrator
to
check
whether
the
group
paging
feature
is
enabled
at
your
location.
In
most
cases,
adding
the
“Page
Group”
feature
key
will
enable
group
paging
using
the
default
settings.
Simply
add
page
group
1
or
2
to
each
phone
as
required.
Here
is
how
to
use
the
group
paging
feature:
1. If
not
joined
(LED
off),
press
the
key
once
to
join
the
paging
group.
Once
you
have
joined,
the
LED
is
red
and
your
phone
will
play
audio
received
from
the
paging
group
(multicast
channel)
2. After
joining
(LED
red),
press
and
hold
down
the
key
to
talk
(PTT
or
push-­‐to-­‐talk)
to
the
group.
Audio
received
from
the
multicast
channel
is
paused
while
you
are
talking
3. If
the
“clamp-­‐on”
option
is
enabled
by
the
admin,
you
can
enable
clamp-­‐on
so
that
you
can
continue
to
talk
without
needing
to
keep
the
key
pressed
down.
To
enable
clamp-­‐on,
after
joining
press
and
release
the
key
quickly
and
the
LED
will
change
(blinking
slowly
in
red)
to
indicate
that
clamp-­‐on
is
enabled
4. To
leave
the
group
after
joining
(and
clamp-­‐on,
if
available),
press
and
release
the
key
quickly
When
audio
is
received
from
the
group,
all
your
current
calls
will
be
interrupted
and
put
on
hold
in
the
standard
way
as
if
a
new
foreground
call
is
added.
When
joining
two
page
groups,
and
in
the
event
two
pages
are
received
at
the
same
time,
the
audio
from
the
two
groups
is
mixed
locally
by
the
phone.
