2. Typical example of MCU operation

This is a typical display on an IPanel in a multipoint call via the MCU.

• On the right side of the screen there are three participants in this example (presented in 2x2 format).

There may be a total of five active interactive videoconferencing participants.

• There will be a black box in the display. This is a good place to move your local PIP window.

This permits you to have local camera control during the conference.

• Note: there is no remote camera control in a multipoint call. Each site is responsible for the optimum

position of their cameras.

• On the left portion of the screen is a PowerPoint presentation shared by one of the active participants.

This is the H.239 data sharing function.

• There is a yellow box around one of the participants. This means that person is currently talking.
