Maintenance Manual

Mute on join
■ Audio:Check the box to mute the audio
coming from endpoints that call in to this
conference.
■ Video:Check the box to stop the video
coming from endpoints that call in to this
conference.
Participants who call in will have the selected
channels muted as they join the conference. This
setting does not apply when the MCU calls out to
preconfigured endpoints or ad hoc participants.
You can edit this setting on conference templates,
preconfigured conferences, or active conferences.
If you want ad hoc conferences to use this
option by default, configure the Mute on
join settings of the ad hoc conferences
template.
Note that there are corresponding settings
called Initial audio to MCU and Initial
video to MCU that you can set for ad hoc
participants and preconfigured endpoints.
If either the endpoint's configuration or the
conference's configuration requires that a
media channel from the endpoint is muted
when it joins the conference, then that
channel will be muted. There is no
precedence between these corresponding
settings.
Refer to Adding participants, Configuring
an H.323 endpoint, or Configuring a SIP
endpoint for more information.
To toggle the mute on a participant's
media channel during a conference, you
can go to Conferences, click the name of
the conference, and then click the
participant name to bring up its status
pages. Refer to Viewing the conference
participant list for more information.
Adaptive Gain
Control on join
Defines whether or not endpoints use Adaptive Gain
Control (AGC) when they first join the conference.
Check the box to enable AGC by default for
endpoints joining this conference.
This is the conference-wide setting. There
is a corresponding Initial Adaptive Gain
Control setting on the endpoint
configuration, or ad hoc participant
configuration, which can override the
conference-wide setting on an individual
basis.
Any manual changes to the participant
volume will turn AGC off for that
participant. You can manually enable or
disable AGC for a participant that is
already in the conference, on the
Conference > Participants > <Name> >
Audio page.
Start locked Choose from:
■ Unlocked: the conference is not locked.
■ Locked: the conference is locked from the
start of the conference and only
preconfigured participants can join.
