Change Multipoint Viewing Layout

To change your layout during a multipoint call:
1 With your remote control, select
2 Select Browse. Browse takes you back to the main video so that you can cycle through the
available layouts for the call. The available layouts depend upon certain factors, such as how many
participants are in the call or the content status.

Multiple Layouts in Lync Calls

In a Microsoft Lync 2013-hosted multipoint or point-to-point call, you can now view multiple far-end sites in
layouts. In previous RealPresence Group system releases, you could only see the dominant speaker in
Voice Switching Mode. You can see five far-end sites on Lync-hosted multipoint calls.

Call Answering Selections

To change the way calls are answered, you might want to change the default settings of your system as
described in the following sections:

Temporarily Refuse Calls Using the Remote Control

Temporarily Refuse Calls Using the Remote Control
If your system administrator has allowed you access, you can automatically refuse incoming calls when you
do not want to be disturbed. Callers get a message that the call was rejected, and you receive no notification
about incoming calls. You can, however, make outgoing calls.
To temporarily refuse incoming calls using the remote control:
1 Navigate to
2 Do one of the following:
 Select Do Not Disturb to Auto Answer Point-to-Point Video.
 Clear the Auto Answer Multipoint Video setting.
Enable Answering Video Calls Automatically Using the Remote
Control
If your system administrator has allowed access to user settings, you can specify whether to answer video
calls automatically or to have the system announce incoming video calls and wait for you to answer
manually.
Caution: Security risk and auto-answering calls
Automatically answering calls is convenient, but it can create security issues. An unexpected caller
could interrupt a meeting in progress or look at equipment and notes left in an empty room.
