Getting Started Guide for the VSX Series

Version 9.0.6

This guide includes overview information that you may find helpful when you’re just starting to learn about video conferencing or when you have experience, but you need a quick refresher.

Polycom® systems can be customized to show only those options used in your organization. Therefore, there may be options covered in this guide that you cannot access on your system. To find out more about these options, please talk to the administrator of your Polycom system.

This guide covers instructions for the following models:

VSX™ set-top systems

VSX component systems

VSX 3000 executive desktop systems

Using the Remote Control

You use the remote control to place calls, adjust the volume, navigate screens, and select options.

If you need to enter text, you can press number buttons using the text-entry method commonly used with cell phones. For example, to enter “b”, press the

number 2 button twice. Alternatively, you can press Keyboard and use the onscreen keyboard to enter text.
