4. To select a calling speed, highlight the Speed Indicator Icon, press
SELECT, then use the UP and DOWN arrow buttons to select a speed from
the list that appears onscreen. The number of connected ISDN lines and the
selections made on the Dialing Speeds screen will determine the speeds that
are available. When you select a dialing speed of 2x56 or 2x64, the
ViewStation will place a two-channel call at 112 or 128 Kb. If you select a
dialing speed of 112 or 128, you will place a BONDING call at the selected
speed. Your call may perform better with a 2x56 / 2x64 dialing speed than
with a 112 / 128 Kb BONDING call.
Note that some calls can only connect using certain speeds due to far-site
bandwidth limitations. Near-site configuration settings can also affect the
speed settings available for making a call.
5. Press the SELECT button (or the CALL•HANG-UP button) to place the
call.
6. As the call connection approaches completion, the circular call progress
indicators on the lower left of the screen will change from blue to green.
Two call progress indicators will appear for each available line.
If the call cannot connect, an error box will appear at the top center of the
screen. You can redial from the Video Phone
screen, where the number you
entered will remain until it is replaced or the system is turned off.
When the call connects, the party you are calling will appear in the main
window and near-site video will appear in a smaller window at the lower
right. If you are using a dual-monitor configuration, the party you are
calling will appear on the main monitor and you will appear on the second
monitor. For information about controlling the cameras, see the
Cameras
and Sound
section of this manual.
