Single switch data collaboration. When all parties involved in data
collaboration conference are located on the same physical DEFINITY ECS, there
is no restriction on the type of user. The parties may be any combination of
Enhanced multimedia complexes, Basic multimedia complexes or stand-alone
H.320 DVC systems.
Multi- switch data collaboration. When all parties involved in data
collaboration conference are not located on the same physical DEFINITY ECS,
the parties located on the DEFINITY ECS hosting the data conference (i.e. the
switch that activated mm-datacnf) may be any combination of Enhanced
multimedia complexes, Basic multimedia complexes or stand-alone H.320 DVC
systems.
NOTE:
All parties on remote switches must not be Enhanced multimedia
complexes. They must be Basic multimedia complexes or stand -alone H.320
DVC systems.
Prior to originating or receiving a multimedia mode call, the mm-basic feature
button or feature access code can be used to dynamically change an Enhanced
mode complex into a Basic mode complex and back again.
Voice station audio vs. H.320 DVC system audio
When an Enhanced mode complex originates or receives a voice or multimedia
call, the call is originated with the station handset or answered with the station
handset. The audio path will be through the handset. If the user’s H.320 DVC
system has speakers and a microphone, the user may wish to use the H.320 DVC
system for audio in much the same manner as a built-in or separate telephone
speakerphone. The user can move the station’ s audio to t he H.320 DVC system by
selecting an mm-pcaudio feature button on the voice station. There is no feature
access code for this function.
The mm-pcaudio feature button works very much like a speakerphone on/off
button. If the station is off-hook and selects mm-pcaudio, audio is directed to the
PC DVC system. The switch-hook may be placed on-hook. If the handset i s taken
off-hook, the audio moves back to the handset. If the mm-pcaudio button is
selected while audio is already on the DVC system and the handset is on-hook,
this acts as a speakerphone off action and disconnects the current call.
The mm-pcaudio feature button may be used for voice as well as multi media cal ls.
If the mm-pcaudio feature button is selected while on a voice only call, the DVC
system is alerted and brought into the call. No video will be transmitted or
displayed. Audio will be directed through the PC DVC system.
