You can easily access support documents from the web interface.

Stop and Start Camera Video in a Call

You can stop your near-end site camera video while in a call. Using the local interface, you can also stop
your near-end site camera video before a call begins. You can then start your camera video again at any
time.
Stopping your camera video allows you to stop sending your near-end, camera-encoded video while still
remaining connected to the conference. When your video is stopped, the far-end site does not see near-end
video transmission from you.
When your camera video is turned off in non-Lync environments, a video pause image is sent to the far-end
site. In Lync environments, video transmission stops, and no Self View is displayed when your video is
stopped. Turning off your video does not affect the sending or receiving of content.
To stop camera video from the web interface in a call:
» Select Camera Off from the call menu at the top of the screen.
When you stop the video, a video pause icon appears on the display.
To start camera video from the web interface in a call:
» Select Camera On from the call menu at the top of the screen.
When you start the video, the video pause icon disappears from the display.
For information on stopping and starting video from the local interface, refer to Polycom RealPresence
Group Series User Guide.

Place Calls in Kiosk Mode

In the local interface, Kiosk Mode simplifies the Home screen by displaying only speed dial entries and
calendar meetings (if enabled). In Kiosk Mode, therefore, you can call speed dial numbers, join calendar
meetings, and answer calls.
You must create your speed dial numbers before you use Kiosk Mode.
Kiosk Mode is disabled by default. If Kiosk Mode is enabled, these conditions apply:
● The Home screen menu, Out of Call menu, and other icons are disabled.
● Alerts bring the local interface out of Kiosk Mode until you clear the alerts.
● You can still use the remote to adjust the volume, control the camera, and mute/unmute the
microphone when in calls.
● You can bring up the In a Call menu by pressing Menu on the remote during the call.
To enable Kiosk Mode:
1 In the web interface, go to Manage Favorites > Create Favorite and create one or more Favorites.
