Working with Directory Entries

If you are in a video call with a V500 system and the far site sends
content, the content automatically appears on your screen. The content
remains on the screen until the far site system stops sending it.
If you are displaying the PIP when content is sent, you see the content in
the main part of the screen and, in the PIP, you see the people at the far
site.
If your system supports Dual Monitor Emulation, you can see the people at
the far site and the content at the same time. This is possible because the
system can send and receive two sources of video simultaneously.
The directory on your V500 system stores dialing information that helps
you make calls quickly and easily. When a site listed in the directory calls
your system, the system displays the name on the screen when the call
comes in. If a site that calls you is not listed in the directory, you might be
prompted to save the contact information in the directory when the call
ends.
If your system is registered with a Global Directory Server, your directory
contains two types of entries:
Local entries: Information about sites that you have added. These
entries are stored locally on your V500 system, and depending on your
system setup, you can remove or edit these entries. You can also
assign local entries to categories to make it easier to find numbers.
Local entries are available to anyone who uses the system.
Global entries: Information about other active sites that are
registered with the same Global Directory Server. These entries are
stored on the Global Directory Server, and you cannot edit them. You
can make a local copy if you want to make changes.
Global entries are marked as available or offline.
