Description

 

 

Telepresence mode (v6)

Support for telepresence conference rooms joining the conference:

 

Auto (default) — A conference is automatically put into telepresence mode

 

when a telepresence endpoint (RPX, TPX, ATX, or OTX) joins.

 

On— Telepresence mode is on, regardless of whether a telepresence

 

endpoint is present.

 

Off— Telepresence mode is off, regardless of whether a telepresence

 

endpoint is present.

 

We recommend always using Auto. Available only on v6.0 and newer

 

Polycom MCUs that are licensed for telepresence mode. For information on

 

Polycom MCU licensing and activation, refer to the MCU’s Getting Started

 

Guide.

 

Note: The system flag ITP_CERTIFICATION must be set to YES. See the

 

information about system flags in the MCU’s Administrator’s Guide.

 

 

Telepresence layout mode (v6)

Layout choices for telepresence conferences:

 

Manual — Layout is controlled manually by a conference operator using

 

the Multipoint Layout Application (MLA) interface.

 

Continuous Presence — Tells the MLA to generate a multipoint view

 

(standard or custom).

 

Room Switch — Tells the MLA to use Voice Activated Room Switching

 

(VARS). The speaker’s site is the only one seen by others.

Layout Application User Guide for more information about layouts.
