The Cisco Video Conference System is able to act as a telephone. The call will come through the room’s speakers and will accept any of the microphone inputs. The phone number for the room is displayed on the top left corner of the touch screen.

To place a call, press the Call button on the touch screen. You can then press the number button or the number pad button (see example below) to be able to enter a phone number. Use the standard campus Cisco VoIP - Dialing patterns like you would on a desk phone to place your call. Use the information from the Microphones/Speakers section to control speaker volume, muting, etc.

Cisco Video Conferencing (Touch Panel)

This Cisco Video Conferencing system (touch panel) supports Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Webex, and Google Meet. There are multiple ways to join a meeting using the touch panel in the room.

Video Conferencing - Join a Cloud Meeting from a Cisco Conferencing System

Option 1: The Room was Invited to the Meeting Directly

If your meeting was scheduled by inviting the room to the meeting, a button should appear shortly before the meeting begins allowing you to directly join. This is the easiest method to join a video conference meeting.

Option 2: Manually Join a Meeting from the Room

You can also manually join a meeting. To do so, select the appropriate meeting type on the touch panel. Once prompted, you can enter the required meeting information (room number, password, etc.) or you can visit and provided links and invite the room to your meeting.

Microphones and Speakers

The master volume is controlled by the volume settings on the Cisco Video Conference System.

More detailed settings are available in the Room Control option on the Cisco Video Conference System touch panel. You are able to individually adjust microphone levels and/or mute the lapel mic and the ceiling microphones.

Microphone Options

  • Wireless Mic Volume – Controls the lapel microphone
  • Ceiling Mic – Ceiling installed microphones

A set of four switches is located near the front entrance (front panel), a set of three switches is located near the rear entrance (rear panel) and a full set of six switches is located in the northeast corner of the room (main panel).
