Calling in to conferences
Calling in to conferences
When you dial into a conference you can connect directly to your conference or into a menu that presents you with a series of options (called an auto attendant). From the auto attendant you can select the conference you want to join.
You can join a conference/auto attendant in three ways. Using a:
hardware video endpoint
software video endpoint
Dialing in using a hardware video endpoint
Your system administrator will provide you with a number that will either connect you to the auto attendant or connect you directly to your conference. If there is a PIN you will be prompted to enter it.
On all endpoints you must always press the pound/hash key (#) after
ientering a conference PIN.
Dialing in using a software video endpoint
If you have a webcam and microphone you can dial into a conference using a software video endpoint from your computer.
You can dial into a conference using one of two software video endpoints: Cisco TelePresence Movi and Cisco TelePresence ConferenceMe.
Dialing into a conference using Movi
This guide assumes that Movi and/or ConferenceMe are already
iinstalled. See the individual products documentation for information on how to install Movi and/or ConferenceMe.
Your system adminstrator will provide you with an address to use with Movi. The address will take the format <e164_number>@domain.name or, <conference_name>@domain.com.
To join the conference using Movi, type the address into the address bar of Movi and press Enter. To enter a PIN, click the keypad icon and enter the PIN followed by a ‘#’. Press Enter.
