Enabling Telepresence Mode
Conference Level
Telepresence Mode must be configured in a new or existing Conference Profile.
To enable Telepresence in a new or existing Conference Profile:
1 In the RMX Management pane, click Conference Profiles.
2 Click the New Profiles ( ) button or open an existing Conference Profile.
3 Define the various profile General, Advanced, Gathering Settings and Video Quality 
parameters.
For more information on defining Profiles, see "Defining New Profiles” on page 2-26.
4 Click the Video Settings tab.
5 In the Telepresence Mode field, select one of the following options:
— OFF - When OFF is selected, normal conference video is sent by the Collaboration 
Server.
— AUTO (Default) - The ITP features are dynamic. When AUTO is selected and an 
ITP endpoint is detected, ITP features are applied to the conference video for all 
participants. If all ITP endpoints disconnect from the conference, normal 
conference video is resumed for all remaining participants. ITP features are re-
applied for all participants should an ITP endpoint re-connect to the conference.
When Telepresence Mode is set to Auto and a one-screen Telepresence unit is in use, 
the RMX controls layouts instead of the MLA. For more information see Polycom 
Multipoint Layout Application (MLA) User’s Guide for Use with Polycom Telepresence 
Solutions.
