LifeSize Video Communications Systems User Guide 19
Answering, Ignoring, or Rejecting a Call
You can configure your system to automatically answer incoming calls by setting
preferences in User Preferences : Calls as follows:
• Auto Answer—If set to Enabled, the system automatically answers the first incoming
call. If set to Disabled (the default), you must manually answer incoming calls.
• Auto Answer Mute—If set to Enabled (the default), and the Auto Answer preference is
set to Enabled, the system is muted when a call connects.
• Auto Answer Multiway Call—If set to Enabled (the default), the system automatically
answers incoming calls after the first call has connected. The system beeps to indicate
when a new call connects.
If your system is configured for answering calls manually, choose one of the following
options when an incoming call arrives:
•Select Answer and press OK to accept the call.
•Select Ignore and press OK to reject the call.
If you receive an incoming call while you are in another call and Auto Answer Multiway
Call is set to Disabled, you can choose Do Not Disturb which ignores the call and prevents
any other calls from interrupting for the duration of the call. The caller hears a busy signal.
If Auto Answer Multiway is set to Enabled, the New Call dialog appears when the system
answers a voice call after the first call has connected. The name and number of the added
audio caller appears in the dialog. Select Hang Up and press OK to hang up the call. If you
ignore the dialog, the system accepts the call.
If the system receives a call, but does not answer it, the call appears in the REDIAL list as a
missed call. The symbol appears next to the name in the entry.
Managing a Call
During a call, you can view information about the status of the call and the identity of
connected callers. You can also manage audio output and video images, control cameras,
select input to appear in a display, and initiate a presentation.
Call Status
When you place a call with your LifeSize system, a Call Status dialog appears. The Call
Status dialog shows the number or IP address that you are attempting to call and the status
of the call (for example, dialing, ringing, connecting, answered, or unavailable).
