Calling and Answering
Answering a Video Call
The Polycom system can answer incoming calls in one of these ways:
• The system prompts you to answer the calls manually.
• The system answers incoming calls automatically.
When a call comes in, you hear a ringing sound, and you may see a message
that includes the number of the person calling. If the person is listed in the
directory, you’ll also see the person’s name.
To answer the call manually:
Press Call on the remote control.
If your system is set up to automatically answer calls, the call connects
automatically.

You can use your system to place a video call in any of these ways:
• Entering a name or number

— The Recent Calls list
