Using Do Not Disturb

You may want to set up your system so that the microphone is switched off whenever you receive an incoming call.

By pressing the Microphone Off key you will prevent callers from hearing you without your control (press again to acti- vate).

To combine convenience and privacy, your system may be set up to automatically accept an incoming call, but with the microphone switched off. In this case you must switch the microphone back on manually yourself (just press the Micro- phone Off key to reactivate a disabled microphone).

You may also have your system set up so that you always must answer all incoming calls manually.

These settings are parts of the Settings (in Control Panel) available. Your adminstrator, may or may not, have password protection activated to prevent unauthorized alterations of these and other settings. If in doubt, consult your adminstra- tor.

Note!  A message will be sent to the far end whenever you have disabled your microphone and/or your camera.

Tip! An alternative to the above could be the use of the Do Not Disturb feature (far right).

Want to Change the Video Alert Audio Signal?

You are not stuck with the audio signal alerting you that an incoming call is on its way. This may be changed, see Audio Settings in the Control Panel section. Note that these settings may be password protected by your adminstrator.

Tip!  Whenever you receive an incoming call from someone listed in your Phone Book, the caller’s identity will be shown on the screen, just like in a cellular phone. For more on the Phone Book, see Phone Book Features.

Tip! Whenever Do Not Disturb is activated, the far end will be informed that the called is busy.
