Call timer displays how much time has
expired since the beginning of the call. The
timer also counts time spent on hold (see
figure 4-2).
Call cost counter shows the cumulative cost
of the call, if this network service is available
and the call cost setting is on. The call costs
are calculated according to the settings
determined in the phone interface (in
currency or charging units). See chapter 13
"Phone interface: Menus - Duration and cost
(Menu 6)" on page 13-12.
To end a call, select the call you want to end and
press End call.
Making a new call
When you already have one active call, the New
call command is shown in the Telephone main
view. To make a new call, press New call and
make the new call normally, or press Cancel to
cancel the new call.
If you already have an active and a held call, you
cannot make new calls before either dropping a
previous call or merging them into a conference
call.
Conference call
The conference call is a network service; contact
your network operator to check if this service is
available. In a conference call, you and up to five re-
mote persons can hear each other simultaneously.
To create a conference call:
1 Make the first call normally.
2 Once this person has answered, make a call to
the second participant by pressing New call.
3 Wait until the second person answers the call.
4 To join the first participant in the call, press
Call commands and choose the Conference
call option from the pop-up box. If you want
to include a new person in the conference
call, repeat this operation. When all partici-
pants have been included in the conference
call, the best voice quality is achieved by clos-
ing the cover and continuing the call via the
phone interface.
To end the call with a conference call participant:
1 Press Conference commands.
2 Select one caller from the list of participants
(figure 4-3) and press Drop. To return to the
previous view, press Close.
To talk privately to one of the conference call
participants:
1 Press Conference commands.
2 Select a participant from the list and press
One to one. The conference call is now split
into two calls: the conference is on hold and
the one-to-one call is the active call.
3 Once you have finished the private conversa-
tion, you can add the person back into the
conference call by pressing Conference call.
Voice call transfer
The voice call transfer is a network service which
enables you to connect two voice calls together
and disconnect yourself from both calls.
