Why is there a video PIP on every screen, even several layers from
the main screen?
The PIP (we call this Persistent Preview) is present on every screen for
security purposes so that the user always knows when a video call is con-
nected. Also, the PIP will allow the user to navigate the interface while not
loosing contact with the far site.
In a single monitor configuration, what happens to the PIP when I
go into the menus?
The PIP becomes the far end video and the local camera view goes away.
Can the position of the PIP view be moved?
Yes. By pressing the PIP button on the remote control several times in suc-
cession, the PIP will move counter clockwise on the screen, from one corner
to the next.
What grouping mechanisms are available from the directory?
Users can choose to display the directory listing by “All”, “Local”,
or “Global”.
Is there an easy way to find a particular entry in a very
large directory?
Yes. Like a cell phone address book, the “Search” mechanism prompts the
user to enter an alpha character (or string) by which to search. The search
is conducted on the first few letters of each word in the directory entry. For
example, a search for “Aus” will result in finds for “Polycom Austin”,
“Polycom Australia” and “Austin Conference Room.” The system will then
accumulate all of the findings into one window from which the user can
make a selection.
Is the system capable of saving a multi-point entry?
Yes. In the directory, the user can choose to create a multi-point entry and
add individual entries from the directory. A total of three endpoints can be
configured in one multi-point entry.
What are the customisable camera icons?
The end user has the opportunity to assign industry specific camera icons
to secondary video sources. Icon libraries are stored on the system for
Corporate, Education, Justice, Manufacturing and Medical markets. Each
library contains up to (6) icons that can be selected and named by the end
user. These icons and their labels will then appear whenever the “Camera”
button is selected from the remote control.
