The touchscreen console in a meeting room is the heart of every meeting. It automatically wakes up when it detects motion. On the screen, there are a few things you can do:

• Join a scheduled meeting by selecting the meeting.
  Note: To get a meeting to show up on the room console, organizers should set the room as the meeting location.


• Start a new meeting by selecting the New Meeting icon.  
  
  


• Make a phone call by selecting Dial pad   and dialing a number.
  Note: Do not dial "9" to get an outside line and 4 digit extensions cannot be used. To allow multiple participants to call in, dial the conference bridge with the Room system and give the participants the conference bridge phone number to then join the meeting.
  
  


• Project your laptop by plugging in the cable connected to the console. Depending on the room settings, it may be projected to the room automatically, or you may have to select Present  on the room console.
  
  


• Select More  to invite the room to a meeting, or change settings.
