Using the System for Specialized Applications

You can customize the system to show only a specific set of numbers to call.
This mode, also known as "kiosk mode," can be used for specialized
applications, such as customer query stations or systems used for calling the
same numbers on a regular basis. Kiosk mode requires little or no training and
instructions can be incorporated into the screen design.

Description
Specifies whether the room password and remote access
password are the same.
Enter or change the room password.
When the room password is set, you must enter it to
configure the system Admin Settings using the remote
control. The room password must not contain spaces.
Specifies the password users must supply to join multipoint
calls on this system if the call uses the internal multipoint
option, rather than an external MCU.
This field can also be used to store a password required by
another system that this system calls. If a password is
stored in this field, you do not need to enter it at the time of
the call; the V500 system supplies it to the system that
requires it. The meeting password must not contain spaces.
Enter or change the remote access password.
When the remote access password is set, you must enter it
to upgrade the software or manage the system from a
computer. The remote access password must not contain
spaces.
This field is present when remote access is enabled and the
setting Use Room Password for Remote Access is not
selected.
