SoundStructure Studio
To use the Polycom Touch Control with the SoundStructure system, the
SoundStructure Studio version must be 1.5.0 or later. As described in this
chapter, SoundStructure Studio 1.5.0 automatically creates the necessary
events for integrating the Polycom Touch Control with the SoundStructure
system.
Polycom Touch Control with HDX Systems vs. SoundStructure Systems
To use the Polycom Touch Control, it must be first paired with the system to
be controlled. A Polycom Touch Control may be paired either with:
• an HDX system for video conferencing applications (which may include
optional SoundStructure devices), or
• a SoundStructure system for audio conferencing applications.
It is important to understand the operational differences of the Polycom Touch
Control when paired with an HDX system vs. when paired with a SoundStruc-
ture system. An overview of these operational differences is shown in the
following table.
