3 Touch Availability Control and select Do Not Disturb.
If your system administrator has allowed access to user settings, you can
specify whether to answer video calls automatically or to have the system
announce incoming video calls and wait for you to answer manually.
Caution. Automatically answering calls is convenient, but it can create security
issues. An unexpected caller could interrupt a meeting in progress or look at
equipment and notes left in an empty room.
To automatically answer video calls:
1 From the Home screen, touch
2 Touch the Group Series System tab.
3 If you want to automatically answer incoming point-to-point video calls,
set Auto Answer Point-to-Point to Yes.
4 If you want to automatically answer incoming multipoint video calls, set
Auto Answer Multipoint Video to Yes.
If your system administrator has allowed access to user settings, you can
choose whether to mute the audio when automatically answered video calls
connect. This prevents callers from overhearing conversations or meetings.
After the call connects, touch
microphones.
If you enable automatic muting during a call, the audio for the current meeting is
not affected.
To mute automatically answered video calls:
1 From the Home screen, touch
2 Touch the RealPresence Group system tab.
3 Under Meetings, touch Mute Auto Answer Calls to enable the option.
