Chapter 3-Basic Operation

Text Indication

The Text Indication appears in the window of the current speaker in the participant’s layout in addition to the endpoint name. It displays the conference Secure mode (on or off), total number of connected participants, number of video participants and number of audio participants.

The text indication is automatically displayed when there is a change in the conference Secure state (when Secure is implemented or cancelled) and it appears only for a few seconds (the same duration as the endpoint names).

The conference chairperson or participants can request the display of a Textual Indication of the conference’s statistics by entering the DTMF code *88 on the endpoint’s DTMF input device, such as remote control.
