 Close the Privacy Shutter.
On VVX 500 and 600 phones with a VVX Camera, no LED light shows when the shutter is closed.
The No Video icon is displayed next to your PIP video and the far-side cannot see you.
Stopping video or closing the camera shutter does not create an audio-only call. Even if you stop video,
video information is still transmitted to the far side as a still picture, and the call is still a video call. To dial
an audio-only call, see Place Audio-Only Calls.
No Video from the Far Side
If the far side cannot send video, or stops sending video, a No Video icon is displayed on your phone, as
shown in the next figure. If the far side is unable to send video, a thunderbolt icon is displayed next to the
No Video icon, as shown next.

You can display the far-side video on the full screen, and your PIP continues to display in the corner with
the soft keys hidden. In full screen, call details display along the bottom of the screen, including an icon that
you can select to exit full screen mode. The following figure displays full screen video on the VVX 600
phone.
Note: How can I stop far-side video?
You can't start and stop far-side video. If your phone is set up to receive far-side video, the far-side
video always displays.
Note: Why do I see a different No Video icon?
Depending on the phone or system that has stopped sending video, you may see a different icon than
the one shown above.
