How to fix local participants not hearing remote participants on Polycom SoundStructure C16?
- J
  Julie MartinJul 28, 2025
  If local participants can't hear remote participants, verify that the audio from the remote participants is routed through the matrix to the local amplifier outputs. Ensure the amplifier is turned on, and test if other audio sources can be heard in the local room by adding a Signal Generator from the Edit Channels control and routing it to the amplifier virtual channel. Also, check the wiring for the amplifier virtual channel on the wiring page and confirm the audio from the remote participants is not muted either locally or at the remote site.

Why do local people hear echo of their voices from the remote room on Polycom SoundStructure C16 Conference System?
- C
  Catherine OwenAug 2, 2025
  If local participants hear an echo of their voices from the remote room, ask the remote participants to mute their microphones to see if the echo is removed. If the echo stops when they mute, troubleshoot the remote room’s AEC. If muting the remote participants' microphones doesn't resolve the issue, check the routing of the remote audio matrix to ensure audio from the local room isn't being sent directly back to the local room.

Why can’t remote participants hear local participants on the Polycom SoundStructure C16?

  Micheal GonzalezAug 6, 2025
  If remote participants can't hear local participants, ensure the audio from the local participants is routed through the matrix to the remote participants. Also, check if the microphones are unmuted and can be routed to the amplifier. Verify the wiring for the remote virtual channels on the wiring page matches how the system is actually wired. If microphones can be routed to the amplifier, lower the gain at the crosspoint.

Why won’t the control system mute the microphones on my Polycom SoundStructure C16?
- L
  Lucas HendersonAug 11, 2025
  If the control system isn't muting the microphones, first check that the command from the control system isn’t generating any error messages. Next, ensure that the control system is connected to the SoundStructure device over RS-232 or Ethernet and is able to send commands to the SoundStructure device. If muting the microphones using the default virtual channel group "Mics", the command syntax should be: 'mute Mics'.

How do I set the baud rate on Polycom Conference System?
- D
  Daniel BarnesAug 15, 2025
  The default baud rate for SoundStructure devices is 9600 bps. You can use the API command 'ser_baud' to set the baud rate. For example, to set the baud rate, send the command 'set ser_baud 1 9600' where 1 is the device ID.
