Connecting a participant by phone 

If your Halo location is equipped with a Halo telephone, you can add one or more people to your meeting, even if 
they’re not in a Halo location or video conference. Each Halo location with a phone can have one telephone 
connection to the meeting. Telephone participants can hear and be heard by everyone at the meeting, but they 
cannot see what’s happening. 

1.  On the upper display, point to the 

 Phone icon at the top-left corner of the screen. 

2.  Enter the phone number by clicking the phone buttons, then click Call to dial the 

number. 

 

 TIP: Click 

 to backspace and correct one or more digits. Click   (comma) to insert a 1-

second pause in the number to be dialed. 

3.  If you want to enter additional digits after you dial the phone number, click additional 

phone buttons—the digits are displayed as 

 to protect private passcodes. 

When a phone connection is established, the 

 Phone icon in the top-left corner changes 

to 

 as a reminder that your phone line is in use. When the meeting ends, all phone 

connections automatically end. 

A participant cannot call into a Halo meeting from the outside. Instead, someone in a Halo 
location must call out to the participant. 

 

 

TIP: You can connect more than one phone participant if you phone into a separate audio conference on a 
Halo phone line. 

TIP: You can call someone even if a meeting is not in progress. When the phone call is finished, point to the 

 Phone icon at the top-left corner, then click End to free the line. The phone line is not automatically freed 

when a phone participant hangs up. 

 

When a meeting ends, you have the option to keep the phone connected. Once you select End Meeting, a dialog 
appears asking if you want to continue the phone call. If you do not respond, the phone call will end automatically 
within 30 seconds.
