Unfortunately  not  many  other  manufacturers  provide  this  facility.    Additionally 
when the PC image is previewed its associated audio is only heard at the local site. 
Echo cancellation is appropriately disabled on this input.  
   
System  control  is  normally  through  the  wired  remote  but  if  preferred  a  Polycom 
standard infra red control may be used.  Remote configuration is another option via 
a  web  browser  from  a  network  connected  PC.    This  comprehensive  web  interface 
provides  control  and  configuration  of  the  CODEC  and  displays  diagnostic 
information  if  required,  together  with  web  snapshots  of  near  and  far  sites.    For 
added  security  this  remote  management  system  may  be  password  protected.    For 
connection  to  a  room  control  system  etc.  an  RS232  serial  control  port  is  also 
provided.  
 
 

D: SYSTEM OPERATION

  

The remote control panel includes dedicated controls for Dial, Hang up, Directory, 
Volume,  Microphone  mute,  Zoom,  Near/Far  and  Layout  together  with  cursor 
controls to navigate the on screen menus.  
 
The Content (PC) input signal is controlled via two buttons. The monitor preview 
button cycles between the PC input and the CODEC output, while the second 
button transmits or stops transmission of the PC image over the conference link to 
the remote site(s) 

 

The ‗Info‘ button has dual functions, providing context sensitive help when not in a 
call and a shortcut to Call Status information during a call.
