Note: What Happens if I Wipe the Touchscreen, But It’s Still Dirty?
Dampen a soft, lint-free cloth with an isopropyl alcohol and water solution of 50:50, and then wipe
the screen with the cloth. Always use the dampened cloth to apply the solution; never apply the
solution directly, which could seep inside the screen or stain the phone. In addition, do not use
caustic chemicals to clean the touchscreen.

Registering the Phone

In most cases, your phone is deployed with multiple other phones and your system administrator
configures the phone parameters, so that after you set up your phone, the phone is registered and ready
to use.
When your phone is not part of a large phone deployment, your phone might not be registered after you
set it up. Before you use your phone, you or your system administrator has to register it.

Configuring Your Phone Using the Web

Configuration Utility

This user guide explains how to update phone settings from your phone using the phone’s menu
commands. If you wish, you can also update these settings remotely with the Polycom Web Configuration
Utility.
The phone’s Web Configuration Utility enables you to view and configure phone behavior from a
computer using a Web browser. The utility provides a browser-friendly view of your phone’s current
settings. Using the utility, you can perform many of the same updates from your computer that you can
perform using your phone’s menu system.
You can access the utility using any compatible Web browser installed on a computer that resides on the
same network as your phone. Before you begin, you need to know the IP address of your phone and the
user password to log in to the utility.
Web Info: Using the Utility
For detailed information on accessing, navigating, and using the utility, see the Polycom Web
Configuration Utility User Guide.
