- **Conference Number**

Unique Conference PBXware number, this number should be dialed in order to access the conference.

E.g. 1003

- **Conference Group**

Here you can select a conference group that you have made before. In this group you can define users permissions and conference options. Conference groups are added under a Conferences -&gt; Group -&gt; Add Conference.

You may leave this as Default.

- **Maximum number of users**

This is the maximum number of users permitted in the Conference.

E.g. 9

- **Conference PIN**

Conference PIN number. If set, this PIN will have to be provided by all callers before entering the Conference.

(E.g. John dials the demo conference (1003), but this conference has this field set to 0000. John is asked to provide the conference PIN. If a valid PIN is provided, John will enter the conference, or his call will be rejected after 3 invalid PIN entries).

- **Conference Admin PIN**

When users enter the Admin PIN, they dynamically gain administrative rights for the conference that they are dialing into.

(E.g. John is the operator, but he needs to enter the conference as an admin. Since he does not have admin privileges set, when entering the conference he will use an admin PIN to dynamically gain those privileges).

E.g. 8080

- **Conference Marked User PIN**

When users enter the Marked PIN, they dynamically gain marked user rights for the conference that they are dialing into.

(E.g. John is the operator, but he needs to enter the conference as a Marked user. Since he does not have Marked user privileges, when entering the conference he will use a Marked user PIN code to dynamically gain those privileges).

E.g. 4040

- **Conference Language**

Set the language used for announcements to the conference. Default language is English.

- **Rings to answer**

Number of rings played to the caller before the call is allowed to enter the Conference.

**TIP:** It is recommended to set the "Rings to answer" rather than just "falling" into the Conference.

- **RTP Delay \[sec\]**

Delay time in seconds inserted before the conference operator answers. This delay solves the "half-played" greeting file problem. Keep this value set between 1-3 for optimal performance.

**E.g 1**
