Calling more than one (optional)

Provided that your video endpoint is equipped with the optional built-in Multisite feature, any point-to-point video call (a call involving two parties only) may be expanded to include additional participants. The call will then become a video conference.

Any ongoing video call can then be expanded to a video conference by adding more participants at all times (see the right example).

Alternatively, you may set up a list of whom to call before you actually call them and then call them all in one go (see the below example).

Note that your video network may have an infrastructure permitting video conferencing— even if your video system itself does not. This will require the presence of an external Multipoint Control Unit (MCU).

The most advanced video systems (those using Codec C60 or C90) can—when equipped with Multisite—set up video meetings with four participants (yourself included). External MCUs may let you set up conferences with many more participants.

Systems equipped with Codec C20 have no Multisite feature (see page 30 to

find out which type of codec your system has). However, all products described in this user guide come with Multiwayinstalled (see the next page for more on this).

Contact your system administrator for details on how to use external MCUs.

Setting up a list of whom to call before calling them

Calling participants one by one

During a call, open the Call menu again…

Then call someone in the usual manner— by keying in the name, number or address (in this case “542”) or by means of the phone book. Invoke the virtual keyboard

(see “Entering text in text fields” on page 7), if convenient.

Finally, navigate down to Call and place the call…

If you want to add another participant, repeat the process. The maximum number of participants possible depends on your system’s configuration.

Settings Add another participant

This is the participant you already are in a call with.

The next participant you are going to call.

Use this to place the call.

This example shows two entries made before any calls are placed.

To do this start by entering the first person to call (directly, via the recent calls list or from the phone book), then select Add another participant and add a second person. When all have been entered, press Call on the remote control or select the Call icon in the menu.

For units equipped with MultiSite capabilities, up to three participants can be called simultaneously, if no external MCUs are used.

After you have entered the participants, press

the key to place the calls. Any of these may, of course, be fetched from the phone book in the usual manner.

Terminating a video conference

The host of a video conference is the one who initiated the conference. This is the endpoint to which all the others are connected.

The host has the right to terminate the connection to any of the participants. The participants cannot control any of the others, but may disconnect themselves from the meeting at all times.
