Personal Conference Manager (Pcm) (Avc Cp Conferences); Pcm Usage Guidelines - Polycom 1500 Getting Started Manual

RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/1800/2000/4000 Getting Started Guide
● If the destination number is not entered in a specific amount of time (defined in Timeout for user
input in the IVR Services - Global tab), the participant is prompted to enter a destination number
again. Depending on the Number of user input retries as defined in the IVR Services - Global tab,
the system will attempt to receive the required input. When all the retries have failed, the call to the
invited participant is cancelled.
Guidelines
● In CP conferences, the participant initiating the invitation to another participant is able to view the
dialing information and connection status. During the dialing process, the dialing string is displayed
as the participant name which is replaced by the site name when connected to the conference.
● By default, all participants (Everyone) are granted permission to invite a participant to join a
conference. To change the permission to the Chairperson, modify the Permission column in the IVR
Service - DTMF Codes tab.
For details on enabling the Invite Participants option, see
Personal Conference Manager (PCM) (AVC CP
Conferences)
The Personal Conference Manager (PCM) interface enables the conference chairperson to control various
conference features using his/her endpoint's remote control device.
The following conference operations can be performed:
● Initiate Polycom's Click&View™ application to change the local screen layout.
● Invite participants to connect to the conference.
● View and control the audio and video of each connected endpoint.
● Camera Control - control the camera of a remote endpoint using Far End Camera Control (FECC).
● Control the camera of a connected endpoint.
● Video Force a specific participant to a specific window of the video layout.
● Initiate and control recording of the conference.
● Disconnect a participant.
● Terminate the conference.

PCM Usage Guidelines

● PCM is supported with Collaboration Server 1500/2000/4000 MPMx and Collaboration Server
1500/1800/2000/4000 MPMRx cards.
● PCM is supported in H.323 and SIP network environments.
● PCM is only available in AVC CP conferences.
● Although the Collaboration Server can host up to a maximum of 800 conferences (depending on the
RMX model) PCM can only be activated from up to 4 conferences per card on systems with MPMRx
cards or with MPMx cards and a License without SVC (SVC is disabled). In systems with MPMx cards
and SVC-enabled License, only 1 PCM session can be activated for one MCU.
For example, Collaboration Server 2000 with 2 MPMx media cards installed and the SVC option is
disabled in the license can host a total of 8 PCM sessions.
