wrap around to 0x01. AIM and VIS are BAS commands which can be sent as 
input (I) to MCU from an endpoint or as output (O) from MCU to an endpoint.
AIM Audio Indicate Muted. Value of y on input (I) indicates that this 
endpoint has muted its audio. MCU will not VAS to an endpoint 
displaying mute indicate. Value of n on input indicates that this 
endpoint has not muted (only if endpoint audio mode is turned on). 
Value of y on output (O) indicates that all other endpoints in the 
conference have muted their audio (have sent AIM to MCU). MCU in 
turn tells this endpoint (by sending it AIM) that there is no audio 
output from MCU. A value of n on output indicates that there is an 
audio path open across the bridge.
VIS Video Indicate Suppressed. Value of y on input (I) indicates that this 
endpoint has suppressed its video (indicated video is muted). Value 
of y on output (O) indicates that the MCU is not sending video to this 
endpoint because there is no video broadcaster (broadcaster has not 
joined or broadcaster’s video is not valid).
MIS Multipoint Indicate Secondary-status. This command is only sent as 
output (O) to an endpoint. A value of n indicates that the endpoint is 
viewed as capable of being a valid source (although not necessarily 
at this moment). A value of n is the correct state to be in for video. A 
value of y indicates that MIS was sent to an endpoint and that this 
endpoint is viewed as a secondary endpoint. The endpoint is 
included in the audio portion of the conference but not the video 
portion. Video will not be sent.
MCV Multipoint Command Visualize. This command is only sent as input (I) 
from an endpoint. A value of y indicates that an endpoint has 
requested to become a broadcaster. This is used during Still Frame 
Graphics and to force “presentation” mode.
TALK A value of y indicates that the VC board is detecting voice energy 
from the endpoint. The TALK counter indicates the number of times a 
start/stop was detected.
VRCV Value of y indicates if the endpoint is receiving video (MCU is 
sending video to the endpoint). The VRCV counter indicates the 
number of times video was sent/not sent to this endpoint.
BCTK Applies to single screen and quad-screen presentation mode 
conferences. A value of y indicates that the endpoint is the video 
broadcast source. The BCTK counter indicates the number of times 
this endpoint was the video broadcast source.
RTTK Applies only to single screen conferences. A value of y indicates that 
the endpoint is the return video source. The RTTK counter indicates 
the number of times this endpoint was the return video source.
BCLS Applies to single screen and quad-screen presentation mode 
conferences. A value of y indicates that the endpoint is watching the 
video of the broadcast source.
