Vertical Position for Site Name display: Site Names are displayed for all cells. Because the smaller cells are located at the bottom of the large cell, when enabling Site Names it is advisable not to locate the Site Name at the bottom of the cells.

Telepresence (ITP) Room Layout Overlay

The Telepresence (ITP) Room Layout Overlay is displayed with a border of the selected Skin’s border color for the entire room while no border is displayed between the individual room cameras. For more information see “Skins” on page 2-38.

When an ITP Room is selected for as an overlay cell, only Telepresence Room names are listed for selection in the drop-down menu - not the individual endpoints in the ITP Room.

If Auto is selected in the drop-down menu, the overlay cell will display the active speaker unless the active speaker is the large cell. If the endpoint itself is the current speaker, the previous speaker is displayed.
