Recharging the Remote Control Battery
Your system setup sheet shows how to charge the battery in the remote control
the first time. When the remote control battery power is at 10% or less, a
notification is displayed on the home screen. Although other notifications
override the low battery notification, the low battery notification returns after
the other notifications are dismissed. The low battery notification is not
displayed while the system is in a call.
The following steps describe how to recharge the battery.
To recharge the remote control battery:
1
Pull the battery out of the end of the remote control.
2
Insert the USB plug of the battery into a USB 2.0 port such as the one on
your system.
The RealPresence Group 300 and RealPresence Group 500 systems have
two USB 2.0 ports on the back of the system, while the RealPresence
Group 700 has one USB 2.0 port on the front of the system and two USB
3.0 ports on the back of the system.
3
4
Wait until the status light on the battery turns green before removing it
from the port.
Insert the charged battery into the remote control.
The following figure illustrates these steps.
If you have a RealPresence Group 700 system, you can also recharge the
battery using the USB port on the front of the system.

Powering On and Off
Connect the power and power on the RealPresence Group System after you
have connected all of the equipment that you will use with it. Make sure that
the system is powered off before you connect devices to it.
It is important to note that Polycom RealPresence Group systems do not have
what you may think of as a power button—they have a power proximity sensor.
Instead of pressing an actual button that moves, you touch the sensor (or near
the sensor) that indicates power
on the front of the system.
To power on the RealPresence Group System, do one of the following:
•
Press any button on the remote control or pick up the remote control to
wake up the system if it is asleep.
•
•
Press
on the remote control.
Touch and hold the
power sensor on the front of the system. Because
the power sensor is touch sensitive, you can touch your finger on or close
to the sensor.
The Polycom splash screen is displayed within several seconds.
To shut down the RealPresence Group System, do one of the following:
•
•
Press and hold
on the remote control.
Touch and hold the power sensor on the front of the system. The indicator
light changes color and blinks, indicating that the system is shutting
down. Release the power sensor when the indicator light changes color.
Power On Self Test (POST)
After being powered on, the RealPresence Group systems automatically
perform system health checks before the systems are initialized. This process
is known as a power on self test, or POST. The status of the POST sequence is
displayed with the LED indicator light on the front of the device, or in the case
of the RealPresence Group 700 system, in the text field display on the front of
the system. All test results are logged in the system’s memory. For more
information about what the colors of the indicator lights mean, refer to the
Administrator’s Guide for Polycom RealPresence Group Series.
When the POST sequence completes with no fatal errors, the RealPresence
Group system starts normally.
Warning errors that occur on the RealPresence Group system during POST can
be found under System > Status > Active Alerts. For more details, use your
remote control to select More Information.

E.164 format: If you need to dial an extension (E.164 address), enter the
extension in the second entry field. If your system is not configured with a
second entry field, you can enter the extension when the gateway prompts you.
You can also specify characters in the dial string as instructed by the system
administrator.
Participating in an Encrypted Call
If encryption is enabled on the system, a locked padlock icon
appears on
the monitor screen when a call is encrypted. If a call is not encrypted, an open
padlock appears on the monitor screen.
•
•
If you are in a point-to-point call or a multipoint call hosted by another
system, the padlock icon displays the state of your individual connection.
If you are hosting a multipoint call, the padlock icon displays the
combined state of all connections: encrypted if all connections in the call
are encrypted, unencrypted if one or more connections in the call are not
encrypted.
In one call, some connections may be encrypted while others are not.
However, the lock icon may not accurately indicate whether the call is
encrypted if the call is cascaded or includes an audio-only endpoint. If
encryption is required on your system, the far end must support encryption or
the call will not be completed. To avoid security risks, Polycom recommends
that all participants communicate the state of their padlock icons verbally at
the beginning of a call.

Setting and Using Camera Presets
Camera presets are stored camera positions that you can create ahead of time
or during a call. The system uses preset 0 as the default camera position for all
preset camera positions. This default camera position is zoomed out, panned
straight ahead with horizontal tilt.
Presets allow you to:
•
•
Quickly point a camera at pre-defined locations in a room.
Select a video source such as a document camera or an auxiliary camera.
If your system’s camera supports pan, tilt, and zoom movement, you can
create up to 10 preset camera positions for the near-end camera. Each preset
stores the following information:
•
•
•
Camera number
Camera zoom level
Direction the camera points
These presets remain in effect until you change them.
If far-end camera control is allowed, you can create 10 presets for the far-end
camera. These presets are saved only for the duration of the call. You may also
be able to use presets that were created at the far end to control the far-end
camera.
Points to note about camera control and layouts:
•
•
•
When in a call, selecting near camera control pans and zooms the local
camera without changing the layout.
When out of a call, selecting camera control changes the self-view from
Picture-In-Picture (PIP) to full screen.
Incoming calls override the full-screen self-view layout.

Working with Directory and Contact Entries
The directory on your RealPresence Group system stores dialing information
that helps you make calls quickly and easily. When a site listed in the directory
calls your system, the system displays the name on the screen when the call

Including Multiple Sites in Calls
During a multipoint call, multiple sites can see and hear each other. You can
also share content in a multipoint call, just as you can in a point-to-point call.
All systems can participate in multipoint calls. To host multipoint calls, your
RealPresence Group 500 or 700 system must have an option key installed. You
can host multipoint calls using a video conferencing system with multipoint
capabilities, or you can use a bridge such as the Polycom RMX 1000 or
Polycom RMX 2000.
You cannot host multipoint calls with a RealPresence Group 300 system.
Placing a Multipoint Call
How you place a multipoint call depends on whether you’re using a
RealPresence Group system with multipoint capabilities or a bridge such as a
Polycom RMX conference platform. The number of sites allowed in the call is

Multipoint Calls Using Centralized Conferencing Control
Protocol (CCCP)
If a Polycom RealPresence Group system is deployed in a Microsoft Lync
Server 2010 environment and Centralized Conferencing Control Protocol
(CCCP) is enabled, you can place and participate in multipoint calls that are
hosted by Microsoft audio and video servers.
For more information about CCCP multipoint calling, refer to the Polycom
Unified Communications Deployment Guide for Microsoft Environments or contact
your system administrator.
Muting in a CCCP Call
A Microsoft Lync client acting as the call organizer can mute all of the
participants in the call. You cannot unmute until the organizer unmutes the
participants unless you are designated as a presenter. If the meeting organizer
has muted your Polycom RealPresence Group system selectively, you can
unmute your system even if the organizer does not. It is important to
understand that no one else can unmute your microphone. They can only
request that you unmute.
When your mute status changes due to a Microsoft Lync client organizer
muting or unmuting all of the participants, notification is displayed on the
Polycom RealPresence Group system monitor.
Using Avaya Network Features with Video Calls
Depending on how your system is configured, you may be able to use Avaya®
