Configuration Peripherals
New features and improvements in CE9.2
Macro framework
The macro framework allows users and integrators
to write JavaScript macros in order to automate
scenarios and customize endpoint behavior so that it
suites an individual customer's requirements.
The combination of macros and powerful
features such as listening for events/status
changes, automating execution of commands
and configurations, and providing local control
functionality for the In-Room control feature, provides
many possibilities for custom setups.
Minor behavioral changes, such as having the video
system in Do Not Disturb for an infinite amount of
time, can be easily realized by macros. Some other
examples are: Reset configurations automatically,
make a call at a certain time of the day, and issue
alert or help messages depending on status changes.
The macro editor, which also provides several
example macros, is available from the video system's
web interface.

System settings Appendices
Branding and halfwake customization
You can upload your own text and images to
customize the appearance of the screen and user
interface in both the halfwake state and the awake
state.
In the Halfwake state you can:
• Add a background brand image to the screen and
user interface.
• Add a small logo in the bottom right corner of the
screen and user interface.
In the Awake state you can:
• Add a small logo in the bottom right corner of the
screen and user interface.
• Add a label or message in the bottom left corner
of the screen (not the user interface).
Source composition
You can compose up to four input sources (depending
on how many input sources are available on the
codec) into one image. This is the image that will be
sent in the main video stream to the far end in a call.
Source composition can only be enabled via the API,
so we recommend creating a user interface extension
combined with a macro to control the compositions
on demand.
This feature replaces some of the functionality that
was provided by the TC Console application for TC
software.
HTTP Proxy support
You can set up the video system to go through a
HTTP Proxy when registering it to Cisco's cloud
service, Cisco Spark.
