Administrator’s Guide for the VSX Series

Implementing Basic Mode with VSX Web

Basic Mode is a limited operating mode that uses H.261 for video and G.711 for audio. It provides administrators with a workaround for interoperability issues that cannot be solved using other methods. The Basic Mode setting stays in effect until you change it.

To enable Basic Mode using VSX Web:

1.On a computer, open a web browser.

2.In the browser address line, enter the system’s IP address, for example, http://10.11.12.13, to go to VSX Web.

3.Go to Admin Settings > Network > Call Preference.

4.Select Enable Basic Mode.

Managing System Profiles with VSX Web

Administrators managing systems that support multiple applications can change system settings quickly and easily using profiles. You can store a VSX system profile on a computer as a .csv file using VSX Web. There is no limit to the number of profiles you can save.

The following settings are included in a profile:

•Home Screen settings

•User access levels

•Icon selections

•Option keys

•System behaviors

Passwords are not included when you store a profile.

Polycom recommends using profiles only as a way to back up system settings. Attempting to edit a stored profile or upload it to more than one system on the network can result in instability or unexpected problems.
