System information

New feature descriptions TC6.1.0

This device pack is not available for CUCM 9.0.

Support for call forwarding (Call Forward All) – EX series only

When registered to a Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) call forwarding is supported.

Call forwarding diverts calls to a specified number. When Call Forward All is activated, all incoming

calls are diverted.

The target destination for diverted calls can be set from the Touch 8” panel, or provisioned by the

Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM). You can find information about call forwarding in

the CUCM user documentation (Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide).

Audio-driven microphone mute indication – EX series only

When in a call, you will be notified if you start speaking while your microphone is muted. The

notification - Your microphone is muted - will be displayed on the main display.

Bluetooth headset support – EX series only

The Bluetooth version 2.1 headset profile is supported. Bluetooth 3.0 is not supported. The following

functions are included: answer, volume up, volume down and hang up. A Bluetooth headset icon

appears in the audio selector on the Touch controller when a headset is paired with the video system.

Only one headset can be paired at a time.

CTI/JTAPI support (remote expert solution support)

A Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) exposes call control of endpoints via a Java

Telephony API (JTAPI). Cisco’s JTAPI enables custom applications to monitor device availability and

control calls remotely. The following features are supported: call, answer, disconnect, hold, resume,

blind transfer, consultative transfer and consultative conference.

Endpoints registered to a Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 9.0 or later support the

Cisco Remote Expert Smart Solution (version 1.8).

Touch 8” has now an encrypted file system

► Factory reset is more secure as it now follows the same procedure as on the codecs: resetting

the touch panel will securely delete the cryptographic key

► If you downgrade a codec from TC6.1 to an older version, the connection to the touch panel is

lost and you must pair it again. This is required because the codec will not be able to

communicate with a touch panel that has an encrypted file system. The codec requires new

Linux kernel modules.
