Managing Calls; Call By Entering A Name Or Number - Polycom RealPresence Group 300 User Manual

Managing Calls

There are several ways to initiate calls. The most basic calling tasks include the placing calls, answering
calls, and ending calls.
You can perform all of the functions that are available when making conventional calls, plus you can make
multipoint conference calls, stop and start your video, and more.

Call by Entering a Name or Number

You can place a call several different ways.
One easy way to place a call is to enter a specific name or number using a touch device or the remote
control.
An alternate way of entering data is by attaching a standard English USB keyboard to one of the system's
USB ports. When a USB keyboard is connected to a RealPresence Group system, you can enter only
numbers with the remote control on the local interface's Keypad or Contacts screens.
To enter letters, unplug the keyboard from the USB port, then select the Keyboard button now displayed
on your system screen.
Note: Keyboard button does not display if USB keyboard is active
The Keyboard button does not display on your system screen if a USB keyboard is plugged into the system
USB port. After you unplug the USB keyboard from the system's port, the Keyboard button displays.
Keep in mind that, depending on the capabilities of your system and the system you are calling, the dialing
information could look like one of these examples:
● 10.11.12.13 (IPv4 address—include the dots)
● 2555 (E.164 extension for H.323 or SIP)
● stereo.polycom.com (host name)
● (SIP)
To place a call by entering a name or number:
1 Press on the remote control.
