Enabling Telepresence Mode

Telepresence Mode must be configured in a new or existing Conference Profile.
To enable Telepresence in a new or existing Conference Profile:
1 In the RMX Management pane, click Conference Profiles.
2 Click the New Profiles button or open an existing Conference Profile.
3 Define the various profile General, Advanced, Gathering Settings and Video Quality parameters.
For more information on defining Profiles, see
4 Click the Video Settings tab.
5 In the Telepresence Mode field, select one of the following options:
 OFF - When OFF is selected, normal conference video is sent by the Collaboration Server.
 AUTO (Default) - The ITP features are dynamic. When AUTO is selected and an ITP endpoint is
detected, ITP features are applied to the conference video for all participants. If all ITP endpoints
disconnect from the conference, normal conference video is resumed for all remaining
participants. ITP features are re-applied for all participants should an ITP endpoint re-connect to
the conference.
When Telepresence Mode is set to Auto and a one-screen Telepresence unit is in use, the
Collaboration Server controls layouts instead of the MLA. For more information see
Multipoint Layout Application (MLA) User's Guide for Use with Polycom Telepresence
 ON - ITP features are always applied to the conference video for all participants regardless of
whether there are ITP endpoints connected or not.
