Using Device Mode4
Poly Device Mode enables you to use the system’s camera, speaker, microphone, and connected
monitors from your computer.
Once you connect the system to your computer with a USB cable, you can control the video system’s
camera and audio features using your computer’s third-party conferencing application.
For example, instead of using your computer’s camera for Zoom Rooms calls, connect the Studio X30
and use its 4K camera to automatically follow the conversation in the room. You also gain a Poly
echo-cancelling microphone and speaker technology during calls.
NOTE: The system doesn't support hot plugging cameras. To connect a camera to the system,
power the system off, connect the camera, and restart the system.
