Automatic Dial Out

Dial-out participants are defined with their dial-out number. Once they
are added to the ongoing conference, the MCU automatically calls them at
a rate of 1 dial-out per second, using the default H.323, SIP or ISDN/
PSTN Network Service defined for them.
Manual Dial Out
In the manual mode, the RMX user or meeting organizer instructs the
conferencing system to call the participant. Dial-out participants must be
defined (mainly their name and telephone number) and added to the
conference. This mode can only be selected at the conference definition
stage and cannot be changed once the conference is running.
The Gathering Phase of a conference is the time period during which
participants are connecting to a conference. It is enabled for the
conference in the Conference Profile - Gathering Settings dialog box.
During the Gathering Phase, a mix of live video from connected endpoints
is combined with both static and variable textual information about the
conference into a slide which is displayed on all connected endpoints. All
connected participants are kept informed about the current conference
status including names of connected participants, participant count,
participant type (video/audio) etc.
