Joining a meeting

Using PT Mini 3020
Last updated July 18, 2019

You can join ad hoc, scheduled, and permanent meetings from the PT Mini.

Joining an ad hoc meeting

When someone adds a person to a call, this is known as an ad hoc meeting. If someone adds you to their call, you receive a incoming call. To accept the call, select answer call to speak to the person who wants to add you to their call.

If you do not want to join the meeting, ignore or reject the call.

Joining a scheduled meeting

If you receive an invitation to a meeting, the details are shown on the Join button on the day of the meeting. The behavior of the Join button is as follows:

  • If there are no meetings in progress or due to start, the Join button displays the message ‘join with meeting ID’
  • If there is a scheduled meeting due to start in ten minutes or less, the Join button lights up green and displays the name of the meeting, the name of the meeting organizer and the time remaining before it starts
  • When the meeting starts, the Join button flashes. Anytime after the Join button lights green, you can use the button to join the conference
  • If you receive invitations to two overlapping meetings, the details of the first conference due to start display on the Join button. When the first meeting has ended, the details of the second meeting display. To join the second meeting at any time, dial the meeting ID which is in the meeting invite email
  • The Join button remains lit until the meeting end time or, if a meeting continues past its end time, 5 minutes after the last person leaves the meeting

If a scheduled meeting is canceled, the meeting details are removed from the Join button.

Permanent meetings do not trigger the Join button, and do not appear on the button display.
