Adding a Video Call to an Audio-only Call

If you are already in an audio-only call, you can add a video call to your call.
To add a video call after your audio-only call connects:
1. Press
Home to switch to the home screen.
2. On the Place a Call screen, enter the number you want to call.
3. Press
Call to place the call.
To hang up from an audio-only call:
1. Press
Hang Up on the keypad.
2. If prompted, confirm that you want to disconnect from the far site(s).
If the person on the telephone hangs up first, you need to disconnect the call from
the Polycom HDX system, just as you would hang up a telephone receiver in a
regular phone call.

• If you are in a point-to-point call or a multipoint call hosted by another
system, the padlock icon displays the state of your individual connection.
• If you are hosting a multipoint call, the padlock icon displays the
combined state of all connections:
encrypted, if one or more connections in the call are not encrypted.
In one call, some connections might be encrypted while others are not. The
padlock icon might not accurately indicate whether the call is encrypted if the
call is cascaded or includes an audio-only endpoint. To avoid security risks,
Polycom recommends that all participants communicate the state of their
padlock icon verbally at the beginning of a call.
