Description

 

 

User Defined 1-3

If you have modified the titles of the User

(con’t)

Defined fields the new titles cannot be

 

displayed in the WebCommander application/

 

You can manually modify these titles in the

 

appropriate table (language) in the Access or

 

SQL database application.

 

 

Line Rate

Specify the transfer rate in Kbps.

 

In a Video Switching conference, you must select

 

the highest transfer rate common to all

 

participants. For example, if two participants can

 

connect at a transfer rate of 384 Kbps and one

 

participant can connect at a transfer rate of 128

 

Kbps, set the Line Rate to 2B or 128 Kbps (2B in

 

Bonding mode). In a conference with participants

 

from mixed networks (ISDN and H.323), the line

 

rate defined for the ISDN participant is the line rate

 

that will be used for the H.323 participant. The line

 

rate currently supported for H.323 is E1. In high

 

rates, the capacity of the H.323 Network card

 

changes. For more details, see the MGC

 

Hardware and Installation Guide, Chapter 4.

 

In Transcoding and Continuous Presence

 

conferences, the line rate is defined for each of the

 

participants separately. The conference line rate

 

apply only to those participants whose Line Rate

 

was set to Auto. In such a case, set the conference

 

line rate to the highest transfer rate possible by the

 

endpoints connecting in Auto mode. Maximum

 

transfer rate in Transcoding and Continuous

 

Presence modes is 1920 Kbps (E1). In Software

 

Continuous Presence (SWCP) the Line Rate is set

 

for conferences and represents the transmission

 

rate from the MCU to the endpoint (combined

 

video rate and audio rate). For more details

 

regarding the Line Rate settings for Software CP

 

conferences, see MGC Manager User’s Guide

 

Volume II, Chapter 1.
