Using the Touch Panel

Calling with the Classic UI

This section describes how to use the Classic UI to:

Speed dial video and audio calls

Manually dial video and audio calls

Hang up video and audio calls

Speed Dialing Calls

To enable you to speed dial calls, your system administrator must first set up the speed dial numbers for your site. Each of these speed dial numbers will correspond to a Speed Dial button on the Home screen. The Speed Dial buttons can also be set up to call traditional (standalone) video conferencing systems or audio-only sites.

With the Classic UI, you cannot initiate multipoint calls; therefore, Speed Dials cannot be set up to call Immersive Telepresence sites or multiple sites at one time. You can, however, join multipoint calls that have been initiated by other sites, or a VNOC or bridge can initiate the multipoint calls.

If you want to add or remove any of the video or audio Speed Dial buttons on your Touch Panel, contact your system administrator. Your system administrator can refer to the Polycom Immersive Telepresence (ITP) Administrator’s Guide for information about how to change the Speed Dial buttons.
