RMX Telepresence Mode Guidelines
System Level
The RMX system must be licensed for Telepresence Mode.
The system must be activated with a Telepresence enabled license key.
Conference Level
•The Telepresence Mode and Telepresence Layout Mode fields are only displayed in the
Conference Profile dialog box if the RMX has a Telepresence license installed.
•A Telepresence conference must have Telepresence Mode enabled in its profile.
•In Telepresence Mode, ITP sites are automatically detected.
When Telepresence mode is selected in a conference profile, the following options are
disabled:
borders
site names
speaker indication
skins
same layout
presentation mode
auto layout
lecture mode
The master (center) camera is used for video, audio and content.
Conference Templates can be used to simplify the setting up Telepresence conferences
where precise participant layout and video forcing settings are crucial. Conference
Templates:
Save the conference Profile.
Save all participant parameters including their Personal Layout and Video Forcing
settings.
An ongoing Telepresence conference can be saved to a Conference Template for later re-
use.
For more information see "Conference Templates” on page 11-1.
Room (Participant/Endpoint) Level
To the RMX, each camera in a Telepresence room is considered to be an endpoint and is
configured as a participant.
•The Telepresence Mode field is always displayed in the New Participant dialog box. If the
system is not licensed for Telepresence this field is automatically set to None.
Telepresence participants (endpoints) must be specified as:
RPX – transmitting 4:3 video
or
TPX – transmitting 16:9 video
Automatic Detection of Immersive Telepresence (ITP) Sites
When the conference Telepresence Mode is set to Auto (Default) ITP endpoints are
automatically detected.
