Conferencing with Obi202

How does the Obi202 pick conference lines?  I have the following:

SP1 - VOIP.MS with conventional DID
SP2 - empty
SP3 - Wife's Google
SP4 - My Google

The docs I think were written for the 100 series Obis so I am not sure what to do.  I would like to initiate a call on SP1, flash-hook the call, and dial a second party on one of the GV lines.  If I want to conference SP1 with my Google (on SP4) can I do that, or do I need to reconfigure?  In other words, does SP1 conference with SP2 and SP3 with SP4?

I have it setup this way so that SP1 rings in my office, and only in my office, while SP3/4 rings on a remote handset elsewhere in the house.  I suppose my other alternative is to confgure a second VOIP.MS line, but do I need a separate DID if I only want to call out?

Nevermind . . . I figured it out.

I went into the control panel for VOIP.MS and created a sub-account.  Then I used those new credentials to light up SP2 and voila, I have my own conference bridge that hooks two VOIP.MS channels together with the flash-hook procedure.

As Homer would say "Doh!"
