• Update the software.
• Manage the system using the V500 web interface.
Enter or change the meeting password, if any.
Specifies whether the User Settings screen is accessible to users
via the System screen.
Uncheck this option if you do not want users to change
environmental settings.
Specifies whether to encrypt calls with other sites that support
AES encryption.

unauthorized access more difficult.
