Using the Virtual Remote Control
During normal operation, the Polycom Touch Control uses an IP connection to
communicate with the HDX system. If this connection is lost for more than
2 minutes, you might see error messages on the HDX system monitor and the
Polycom Touch Control screen. You can access a virtual remote control on the
Polycom Touch Control that allows you to control the HDX system until the
connection is restored. The virtual remote control sends IR signals across the
room, so make sure the back of the Polycom Touch Control is facing the HDX
system camera.
When the IP connection is restored, the virtual remote control is no longer
available.
