Guidelines

PCM is only supported with MPM+ cards.

PCM is only available in CP conferences.

Although the RMX can host up to a maximum of 800 conferences
(depending on the RMX model) PCM can only be activated from 4
conferences per MPM+ card.

An RMX 2000 with 2 MPM+80 cards installed can host a total of
8 PCM sessions while an RMX 4000 with 4 MPM+80 cards

installed can host a total of 16 PCM sessions.

If 4 PCM sessions are active on an MPM+ card and a chairperson
of another conference, hosted on the same MPM+ card, attempts
to start an additional PCM session, a message indicating
insufficient resources is displayed and FECC is activated.

When PCM is active, FECC can only be performed by the chairperson
using PCM’s Camera Control menu.
