Retrieving And Reading The Results Of The Noise Level And Reverberation Tests - Cisco TelePresence IX5000 First-Time Setup

Retrieving and Reading the Results of the Noise Level and
Reverberation Tests
After you run the noise level and reverberation tests, you can retrieve the reports by navigating to
Logs > Reports in the Administration GUI. You see a list of .html files whose filenames begin with
Noise and RT60. Click Download to open and view the reports in an HTML browser.

MicBar column (for RT60 and Ambient Noise results): The numbers in MicBar area 1, 2, and 3 refer
to the left, center, and right microphone bars, respectively. If you have a two-row system, 4 to 9 refer
to the second row mic bars, going from left to right.
0.0 result (RT60 reverberation test only): If the RT60 measurement is 0.0, the result was out of
range. This condition can be caused by a high level of noise in the room. Repeating the test should
cause a valid result above 0.0 to appear. If, after rerunning the tests, the results are still 0.0,
reverberation in the room is very high, which will adversely affect the audio quality of TelePresence
calls. Remediation procedures, such as adding an acoustic panel in the room to reduce reverberation
and room noise, might be required.
