/Hardware Rev
ision H
RPX HD Software Version 3.0.2/Hardware Revision H provides the following new functionality:
deployment with Cisco TelePresence systems (CTS).
The RPX, a
s well as other Polycom ITP
solutions with version 3.
0.2 software, now support
s
TIP in order to provide the best possible
telepresence experience when interoperating with CTS equipment. TIP is offered on Polycom
RPX systems in addition to the currently sup
ported H.323
protocols
, thereby ensuring
interoperability with standards
-
based systems from multiple vendors.
For more information
about Polycom ITP and Cisco interoperability, refer to the
Polycom Unified Communications for
Cisco Environments
document.
V
ersion 3.0.2 software with TIP enabled also provides support for segment switching in Cisco
Telepresence Multipoint Switch (CTMS) environments. The Polycom Ceiling Microphone Arrays
t. Based on this
the
CTMS
chooses the appropriate camera from which to display video.
Placement of the Polycom Ceiling Microphone Arrays in RPX rooms has been changed slightly to
provide improved audio quality. The new placement offe
rs up to 3dB improvement in overall
sound, especially for participants seated in the outermost seats at the table.
In some suites,
additional microphones have been added to increase audio quality and coverage.
Polycom now recommends disabling Dynamic Bandw
idth Allocation (DBA)
for ITP systems.
For
information about how to disable DBA, refer to the
Polycom Immersive Telepresence (ITP)
Administrator’s Guide

Feature
Description
Workaround
Audio/Video
Calls
The RPX will not accept any incoming audio calls
when it is al
ready in a video call.
Place outgoing audio calls instead of
receiving incoming audio calls when you
are already in a video call.
On rare occasions, pressing the audio Speed Dial
button once (or the Dial button for manually placed
calls) does not dial th
e call.
If needed, press the audio Speed Dial
button or the Dial button twice in order to
complete the call.
When DTMF tones are heard during the process of
dialing an audio call, the near
-
end and far
-
end audio
is muted for a brief moment.
None
If the
projectors are in sleep mode when an incoming
video call is automatically accepted by the RPX, it
may take up to 70 seconds for the projectors to
automatically power up. During the 70 seconds that it
takes for the projectors to warm up and show far
-
end
vi
deo, the RPX meeting participants may not notice
that the call has been established.
Verify that the projectors are powered up
before placing or receiving any video
calls.
If the projectors are in sleep mode when a video call
comes in, any codecs that a
re not being used will
briefly show near
-
end video. This only occurs when
the number of near
-
end codecs is more than the
number of far
-
end codecs, such as when a RPX 400
on the near end receives an incoming call from an
RPX 200 on the far end, or when eith
er an RPX 400
or 200 receives an incoming call from a single
endpoint (VSX or HDX).
None
If you hang up an incoming audio call and then
immediately place an outgoing audio call, the RPX
may not hang up the initial incoming audio call.
Wait five seconds
between consecutive
audio calls.
If the RPX is in a
single endpoint video call (such as
with a VSX or HDX video conferencing system) and
the Do Not Disturb feature on the RPX is disabled,
an incoming call from a two
-
codec or three
-
codec
system will cause
the center camera on the RPX to
momentarily move to the side before returning to its
correct position.
None
If you place a point
-
to
-
point call to an RMX
™
Virtual
Meeting Room (VMR) and then add a site to the call
from the Conference List on the Meeting
Composer
screen (with the Enhanced UI only), the point
-
to
-
point call will be dropped and a multipoint call will be
created with the VMR as a participant in that
multipoint call.
Hang up the VMR call and then make a
new call with the participants that you
w
ant in that call.

Feature
Description
Workaround
Audio/Video
Calls (continued)
When you place a call to an RMX VMR using the
following syntax, the call will not go through:
IP##MeetingRoomID.
Place the call using this syntax:
MeetingRoomID@IP (for example,
255000@172.25.130.21
).
I
f you use Meeting Composer™ to add two audio
sites to a call and then press
Join
, only one of the
sites may connect. Additionally, if you are already in
a call that includes an audio site and you attempt to
add another audio site to the call, the new audio
site
may not connect.
Connect to the video sites first using the
RMX, and then individually add the audio
sites.
TIP
When an OTX 300 or RPX 400 Series system is in a
point
-
to
-
point call with a CTS 3000 system, the call
speed is limited to 2M per codec
and 720p/30
resolution
.
None
When an OTX 300 system is in a CTMS call with an
RPX, CTS, or another OTX system, the OTX 300
system may not receive audio from the CTS system.
Hang up and dial again.
When connecting a Polycom RPX 400 Series system
to a Cisco telepresence syst
em that has fewer
screens (such as a CTS 1300 or CTS 300), the OTX
system only sends video from the Primary HDX
codec. The RPX system is not currently capable of
sending alternate video streams based on the active
speaker to a system with fewer screens.
N
one
Content
If you share content using a laptop, for best results,
set its input resolution to 1024x768 and its refresh
rate to 75 Hz. This will ensure that the content image
renders correctly.
None
For VGA content, a shift of 2

analog phone, if the remote user disconnects
the call
first, the Touch Panel
continues to show the audio
call as in progress.
Manually
press the
Hang Up
button afte
r
each audio call is completed.
The RPX
will not accept incoming audio or video
calls when the

User Interface:
Crestron Touch
Panel Only
If you press the
Content
button on the Touch
Panel
when no
content source
(such as a lap
top) is
connected to the
RPX with the VGA cable, the
Primary HDX codec will generate a hidden message
on the Primary wall screen. The message states "PC
input resolution and/or refresh rate not supported.”
This message will not be visible
onscreen
because
the RPX is programmed to
picture mute all
wall screens when the system is not in a call. If you
establish a
video call
while the message
is activated,
the call will take longer than usual to connect.
Wait
three seconds (during which time the
message
will t
ime out)
before placing a
video call from the Touch Panel.

For Administrators
The following table lists the known issues relevant to RPX HD administrators.
All issues apply to
RPX systems with the Polycom Touch Contro
l as well as to RPX systems with the Crestron Touch
Panel unless otherwise noted.
Feature
Description
Workaround
Audio/Video
Calls
If you use the web UI to place a call that is not at the
default call speed, the codecs will not automatically
adjust to th
e same call speed. The Primary codec will
connect at the call speed specified in the HDX web UI
Call Quality field, but the remaining codecs will connect
at the default call speed.
Specify multiple addresses in the IP
address field (e.g.,
76223;
76224;7622
5
). Alternatively, use the
web UI to connect to each codec
individually at the desired call speed.
When the primary codec answers an incoming video
call, any HDX codecs that are not being used will
automatically accept any other incoming
video calls if
t
he following conditions exist:
1.
The RPX 200 Series or RPX 400 Series is in
a single endpoint video call with a VSX or
HDX video conferencing system (video ad
-
hoc dialing).
2.
The RPX 400 is in a video call with an RPX
200 Series, a TPX
™
306M, or a TPX 204M.
T
o prevent unused codecs from
accepting any incoming calls, use the
Do Not Disturb timer.
To change the amount of time before
Do Not Disturb is activated, access the
DoNotDisturbTimer field in the
System_Config.ini
file. In this field,
you can enter a valu
e between 10 and
300, or leave the value at 0 if you want
to keep the feature disabled:

is the value (in seconds) of the
desired timeout period.
For example,
DoNotDisturbTimer=120
sets the
parameter to 120 seconds.
When the R
PX is in a call, sending Telnet commands to
change the video format may not work properly.
Do not use Telnet commands to change
the video format when the RPX is in a
call.
When an RPX calls another RPX in a point
-
to
-
point call,
the codecs begin to conne
ct one at a time. If network
resources become limited, not all of the codecs may
connect, which may make it appear that one of the
projectors is not working properly.
If a projector does not work correctly in
a call, you should check if the codec
connecte
d. If it did not connect,
reducing the call bandwidth may solve
the issue.
If your ITP environment is configured to use both the
LDAP directory and H.323 Gatekeeper functions, and
your speed dial entries are not IP addresses, video
calls may take longer
to connect due to the additional
communication involved between the various
components in the solution.
None
Control System
When you connect to the codecs through Telnet or
through the Crestron Toolbox and use the command
prompt, you may see “overflow buf
fer” and other error
messages when you use the Touch Panel. These
errors also appear on the Crestron log. This issue does
not affect system performance or functionality.
None
Microphones
If you disconnect the Polycom Ceiling Microphone
Arrays and then con
nect any microphones other than
Ceiling Microphone Arrays, the proper stereo settings
may be lost.
Launch the Polycom Telepresence
Tool, make sure that all the HDX
codecs are connected, and then click
Configure HDXs
to set the
microphones to their correct
settings.

Installation and
Upgrades
When installing the Polycom Touch Control operating
system and software using the USB drive, the software
may fail to load or you may see a message listing an
incorrect software version.
Manually reboot the
Polycom Touch
Control while the USB device is in the
drive.
When attempting to unpair the Polycom Touch Control
from the System Controller during an upgrade, the
Polycom Touch Control may remain paired.
Manually reboot the Polycom Touch
Control to unp
air it.
When upgrading the HDX systems, you normally see a
screen that displays an hourglass and a red progress
bar. This screen may not appear for HDX PAL systems;
however, the upgrade is still occurring and can be
monitored through the web UI. The Hom
e screen will
appear on the displays when the upgrade is complete.
None
Telepresence

If any of the HDX
codecs are rebooted without
rebooting
the AV2 System Controller as well, the HDX
UI remains onscreen.
Reboot the AV2 Sy
stem Controller
whenever any of the
HDX codecs are
rebooted. The VNOC, Service, and Site
Administration teams are advised to
reboot (power up) the AV2 System
Controller after the HDX reboots
(powers up)
as part of the reset process
or when recovering from
a power
failure. Placing a call without rebooting
the AV2 System Controller will cause
the Touch Panel to freeze.
User Interface:
Crestron Touch
Panel Only
If you add a site from the CMA directory to the speed
dial list and then later change the name of t
hat site in
the CMA, the speed dial entry name that is displayed
on the Touch Panel may not be updated.
Reboot the codecs and the AV2 System
Controller. Alternatively, from the HDX
-
add the renamed
CMA site to the Speed Dial list.
If you reboot the
Primary HDX codec while
the RPX is
in an audio call (with the Help Desk, for example), the
Hang Up
button on the Touch Panel will freeze.
Reboot the AV2 System
Controller
when the
Hang Up
button
enters that frozen state.
When initially
loading the Crestron Touch Panel and
then loading the AV2 System Controller, a Toolbox
Results dialog box may appear at the end of the
installation process. Although this dialog box displays
an error message, the installation completed
successfully.

Users report that the Touch Panel seems to take an
unusually long time to return directory information.
Check if there are LDAP entries in the
directory that are no longer valid. If
there are such entries, correct them.
With the Crestron Touch Panel,
using
the suffixes „1‟,
„2‟, „3‟, or
„4‟ for your audio speed dial name entries may
cause the system to incorrectly interpret them as an ITP
system, instead of distinct audio speed dial entries.
Do not use the
suffixes „1‟, „2‟, „3‟, or
„4‟
for your audi
o speed dial name entries.
