3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each participant to be manually connected to the
conference.

Changing the Participant Connection Type (Dial-In/Dial-Out)
Sometimes you need to change the connection type used by the participant to
connect to the conference. For example, when the participant cannot dial in
and you want the MCU to dial to the participant. You can toggle between the
dial-in and dial-out connection type, using the Participant Properties -
Identification dialog box, or from the Participant right-click menu.
To toggle between Connection Types:
1. In the Monitor pane, Status pane or Browser pane, list the participants
defined for the conference.
• Use this procedure to reconnect participants who were previously
disconnected from the conference or failed to connect to the conference.
• If you have difficulties connecting dial-out ISDN participants, make sure that
the specific switch used for the connection does not require the addition of
the pound key (#) at the end of the dial string. If yes, modify the properties of
the disconnected participant.
• The Connection Type parameter can be changed only when the participant is
disconnected from the conference and both dial-in and dial-out parameters
are defined in the Participant Properties - Identification dialog box.
• If the dial-in phone numbers are not defined for the ISDN participant when
switching to dial-in and the Meet Me Per option is set to MCU - Conference,
the system automatically allocates the appropriate phone numbers from the
list of dial-in numbers defined in the ISDN Network Service that was selected
for participants.
• If the Meet Me Per option is set to Party or Channel, and no CLI number is
defined for the participant, the system will reject the participant’s call.
