call control is transferred to your phone.
• If the ringing phone and your phone are in the same pickup group, press the asterisk (*) to transfer call control to your
phone.
• If the ringing phone and your phone are in different pickup groups, dial the pickup group number where the phone is ringing
to transfer call control to your phone.

End a Conference Call
• To end the conference call:
1. Hang up the handset, or press EndCall.
Note
Depending on the configuration, when the conference call initiator disconnects, the conference call terminates.
Alternate Method to End Conference Call
Call initiators can disconnect from the conference by hanging up the handset. The other parties remain on the conference call.
Live Record a Call
Call initiators can use the LiveRcd soft key to record an active call, private line or conference call. To record a call, use this
