Making a Call — Other Options

For most users, in typical videoconferencing situations, all the information
needed to make a call is covered under the Making a Call Ñ The Basics tab.
However, in a few speciÞc situations you may need additional information to
help you place your call. This section describes:

Choosing the transmission rate of your call

Making a voice-only call

Encrypting your call

Depending on your system conÞguration, some or all of these options may not be
available to you. To be sure, check with your system administrator.

Choosing the Call Rate

Your Concorde¥4500 allows you to choose the transmission rate of your calls. The
rate determines the quality Ñ and cost Ñ of the call.

You set a callÕs rate by choosing

Change Rate for This Call

from the Dialing

Directory screen. This choice affects only the next call you make. After the call, the
rate returns to the setting made by your system administrator.

You have four choices:

Premium

Standard

SpeciÞc Rate

Default

Your system administrator sets the Premium, Standard, and Default settings. If
you choose SpeciÞc Rate, you can choose the exact rate you want from a long list
of rates.
