Advanced Scheduling Operations

Setting	Description

Dial Options	You have three options:
	•	To create a conference for which the same dial-in
		information and a PIN code are assigned to all
		conference participants, use the Dial-Insetting. This
		setting allows participants to dial in from an audio or
		video endpoint and connect to the same conference
		on the MCU.
	•	To dial out to all participants in the conference, use
		the Dial-Outsetting.
	•	To allow participants both options, select
		Dial-In+Dial-Out.

		Note
		When you change a conference from Dial-Into Dial
		In+Dial Out, the selected resources remain set to
		Dial-In. You must change them manually.

	Always Use MCU	This setting forces the conference to an MCU and
		prevents video endpoints from connecting to each other
		directly. This setting is automatically selected and
		cannot be changed when Audio Only is the conference
		type or when Enable Chairperson is selected.

	Video Mode	Determines the initial layout on a video endpoint's
		monitor for a multipoint conference that requires an
		MCU. The options are:
		• Switching.	Indicates that the display changes
		each time the speaker changes, and everyone sees
		the current speaker.
		• Continuous Presence. Displays several panels on
		the monitor, each showing a different participant,
		and allows you to see all conference participants at
		once. You can select a specific layout, with a certain
		number of windows open.
		• Automatic Layout is a continuous presence layout,
		in which the number of participants determines the
		number of panels.

	Bit Rate	Specifies the maximum connection speed for endpoints
		in the conference. Individual endpoints that specify a
		lower connection speed connect at that lower speed.
		Endpoints that specify a higher connection speed
		connect at the speed identified in the conference
		template.
		If you select a higher speed than an endpoint can
		support, the system reduces the speed that endpoint;
		however, the conference uses the default connection
		speed for endpoints that can match it. If you place the
		calls through an endpoint with an embedded MCU, the
		behavior depends on the capabilities of that endpoint.
