Configuring the Video/Voice Resources

To allocate Voice resources:

1In the RMX menu, click Setup > Video/Voice Port Configuration.
The Video/Voice Port Configuration dialog box is displayed.
A slider is displayed, calibrated according to the number of HD720p30 video licenses purchased for
the MCU.
2Move the slider (to the right) to increase the number of Voice ports allocated.
As the slider moves, HD72p30 video ports are converted to voice ports, with each HD72p30 video
port converting to 12 voice ports.
3Click OK.
Forcing Video Resource Allocation to CIF Resolution
You can set the MCU to allocate one CIF video resource to an endpoint, regardless of the resolution
determined by the Conference Profile parameters. This forcing saves resources and enables more
endpoints to connect to conferences.
The forcing is done by modifying the system configuration and it applies to all conferences running on the
MCU.
Resource re-configuration should only be performed when no conferences are running on the
MCU.
Updating the configuration sequentially requires a 10 seconds wait between updates, to let the
system complete the update process.
On the RMX1500 MPMx-Q assembly, the use of HD with Continuous Presence requires an
additional license. In the Resource Report and Resolution Configuration panes, HD settings are
displayed but are not enabled and if HD is selected the system will enable SD by default.
