Answering a Call
The way a Polycom HDX system handles incoming calls depends on how it is
configured. It either answers the call automatically, rejects the call
automatically, or prompts you to answer the call manually.
To answer the call manually:
>> Press Call or select Yes using the remote control.

You can use your system to place a video call in any of these ways:
• Entering a name or number on the Place a Call screen.

— Recent Calls list
