Getting Started Guide for the VSX Series

GETTING STARTED GUIDE FOR THE VSX SERIES

To answer a call while using the VSX 3000 system as a PC monitor:

1.When you hear a ring, press the Input button on the front of the system to switch to the video conferencing system.

You must answer within 90 seconds, or the system will automatically reject the call.

2.Press Call-Hang Up on the remote control.

If you use the VSX 3000 system as your PC monitor, Polycom recommends that you set up the system so that calls must be answered manually. This ensures that callers do not unexpectedly see or hear you at your desk.

When the system is set up for manual call answering, the system rings to indicate an incoming call. To answer the call, switch to the video conferencing system and answer manually. If you do not answer manually, the call will not connect.
