Request Chair
The conference chair site can use more conference control functions than other sites.
Only non-chair sites can request chair control rights when no chair site exists in a conference.
Audio-only sites cannot request chair control rights.
The conference access number is required when a site requests chair control rights. Obtain
this number from the SMC administrator or the calling party.
Request Floor
If a non-chair site wants to speak during a conference, the site can request the floor from the
chair site.
This function is available only when a chair site exists in the conference. After a site requests
the floor, the request is submitted to the chair site. The chair site can then determine whether
to give the floor to the site.


Revoke Chair
When chair control rights are revoked, no chair site exists in the conference. Sites in the
conference can then request to chair the conference.
Only the site that initiates or pays for the conference can revoke chair control rights.
Issue 01 (2013-09-30)
The Revoke chair function is available only to the site that initiates or pays for a conference.
You view the sites connected to their own MCUs or MCUs of the same level only.
You can choose to view a single site.
You can view continuous presence during a conference if the conference supports
Continuous presence .
During multipoint conferences hosted by standalone MCUs, the endpoint supports multiple continuous
presence views.
If the chair site gives the floor to the site, the site is broadcast, and all the sites, except
the chair site and the site given the floor, are muted.
If the chair site does not give the floor to the requesting site, the conference status
remains unchanged.
