ANSWERING VIDEOCONFERENCE CALLS

When Collaborate Desktop is running but no call is active, you can receive an incoming

videoconference call or audio-only call at any time. An incoming call emits a ringing sound -

just like an ordinary telephone ring.

In the Call Settings, define if the system automatically accepts incoming calls or to decide

whether to accept or reject each call manually on a call-by-call basis.

To accept incoming calls automatically:
1.

Open the Drawer.

2. Click the Settings tab, the Calls tab and then the General tab.
3. Select Auto Answer.
4. Click Apply.
If your system is not in a videoconference, any incoming call will be accepted without

requesting your approval.

ANUALLY

If Auto Answer is deselected, you decide whether to accept or reject every incoming

videoconferencing call. When a call arrives, the system rings. The

Incoming Call message

states the identity of the caller and provides the choice of accepting or rejecting the call.

To accept or reject an incoming call manually:

In the Incoming Call message, click Accept to receive the call or Reject if you don't want

to answer.

NOTE: If you want to automatically accept all subsequent calls, click

Auto Answer before clicking Accept or Reject.
