Customizing Your Workspace

Your system administrator may have configured the system to let you

customize what you see on the screen. You can change these options before

you place a call and when the system is in a call.

Allowing the Far Site to Control Your Camera

If you have a VSX 7000 or VSX 8000 system, you can allow the far site to

control your camera. This enables the other participants to adjust what they

see. Far-site participants can also set and use presets for your camera, if their

system supports this.

To allow the far site to control your camera:

1. Select System from the Place a Call screen.

2. Select User Settings from the System screen.

3. Scroll to Far Control of Near Camera and press to enable the

option.

4. Press Home to save your change and return to the Place a Call

screen.

Changing this setting takes effect immediately, even if a call is in progress.

Specifying When to Display the PIP

Your system administrator may have configured the default behavior for the

PIP in calls. After a call connects, however, you can show, move, or hide the

PIP, as needed.

To specify when to display the PIP:

1. Select System from the Place a Call screen.

2. Select User Settings from the System screen.

3. Select to see more settings.
