PCM Usage Guidelines
● PCM is supported in H.323 and SIP network environments.
● PCM is only available in AVC CP conferences.
● PCM can only be activated from up to 4 conferences per MPMRx card.
● If all possible PCM sessions are active on a media card and a chairperson of another conference,
hosted on the same media card, attempts to start an additional PCM session, a message is displayed
indicating that the requested PCM session cannot be activated because the maximum number of
concurrent PCM sessions are already activated. FECC is then activated.
● When PCM is active, FECC can only be performed by the chairperson using PCM's Camera Control
menu.
● FECC is available to all IP participants in the conference with the exception of the chairperson that
has an active PCM session.
● If enabled, Message Overlay is not displayed while PCM is active.
● Normal conference video is resumed after 4 seconds of inactivity within the PCM menu.
● If a chairperson with active PCM session is moved to another conference, the PCM session is
automatically terminated.
● PCM cannot be activated from the chairperson's endpoint when connected with QCIF resolution.
