Using the Touch Panel

The Touch Panel is your interface to the Polycom Open Telepresence Experience. It enables you to place video and audio calls, hang up calls, control the audio, and perform other telepresence conferencing tasks. The Touch Panel is located on the table within easy reach of the center seats.

If your organization has signed up for Video Network Operations Center (VNOC) services, the VNOC may handle many or all of the telepresence conferencing tasks for you. If so, you may not need to use the Touch Panel.

About the Enhanced and Classic User Interfaces

The Touch Panel is available with two different interfaces: the Enhanced UI and the Classic UI.

•Enhanced UI: Enables you to perform all of the basic tasks needed to participate in a telepresence conference, such as making calls, answering calls, hanging up, controlling audio, and sharing content. The Enhanced UI also provides access to additional calling functionality, such as Meeting Composer, Polycom Conferencing for Outlook, and advanced directory searching.

•Classic UI: Enables you to perform the same basic conferencing tasks as the Enhanced UI, such as making and answering calls and sharing content. The Classic UI, however, does not offer Meeting Composer and other advanced calling features.

The installer sets the UI at the time of installation; however, your administrator or your VNOC provider can change it if needed.

With both the Enhanced UI and the Classic UI, you can expect the Touch Panel buttons to behave in this way:

•Whenever you press a button, the Touch Panel will beep.

•Most buttons on the Touch Panel will either immediately visually depress or change color when touched. If a button indicates a state (such as mute), it may take up to a second for the button to visually indicate the changed
