Customizing Equipment Data - Polycom ReadiManagerLX100 Administrator's Manual

Customizing Equipment Data

© Polycom, Inc.
Equipment types and categories determine the choices available to users when
defining equipment to associate with a resource.
Polycom ReadiManager LX100 comes set up with the equipment categories and
equipment types most users need. However, it is possible to add additional categories
and types, and to make adjustments to the current ones, if needed.
It can be useful to add an equipment type of "Non-Video" or "Audio Only" for use with
conference rooms that do not have video equipment. That way, users can use Network
Aware Scheduler to schedule conferences that don't need video equipment. This keeps
rooms with video equipment free for those who need to schedule a videoconference.
Warning: Be very careful when making changes to any equipment types and
categories. Changing the default settings in these records can adversely effect
Polycom ReadiManager LX100's ability to schedule and manage equipment.
Both equipment categories and types are accessible to Network Administrators and
Global Administrators from the Admin menu.
To view existing categories
1. From the menu bar, choose Admin > Categories.
The Equipment Categories list appears.
2. To see details about a particular category, click the Category link in the View
column.
The Category Information form appears.
The Selector filter is an option that makes the category type be a filterable field in
the Resource selector. When checked, this category will be filterable on the Admin
> Equipments list.
3. When finished, click Cancel.
To view existing equipment types
1. From the menu bar, choose Admin > Equipment.
The Equipment list appears.
2. From the drop-down list, select the category of equipment you want to see.
3. The equipment list updates to show the type of equipment you selected.
