Using the MCU Create a Conference Note For more detailed information, see the SCOPIA User Guide The SCOPIA MCU unit contains two components for NTRODUCTION performing audio and videoconferencing—the MCU and the SCOPIA Media and Video Processor (MVP). The MCU (the upper component) is responsible for signaling and audio.
OMPONENT ESCRIPTION GK LED (on the Lights green when the MCU/MVP is SCOPIA MCU) registered with a gatekeeper, or when there MC LED (on the MVP) is no gatekeeper registered and the auto attendant feature is enabled. LOAD LED Lights green when more than 50% of MCU/ MVP resources are in use.
Before you start configuration, fill in the checklist below: REPARE A HECKLIST For the MCU IP address: _ _ _. _ _ _. _ _ _. _ _ _ IP subnet mask: _ _ _. _ _ _. _ _ _. _ _ _ Router IP address: _ _ _.

You can optionally mount the SCOPIA MCU unit in a standard OUNT THE SCOPIA 19-inch rack. Two mounting brackets and a set of screws are 19" included in the SCOPIA MCU unit shipping box. NIT IN A PTIONAL Procedure Disconnect all cables including the power cables. Place the SCOPIA MCU unit right-side up on a hard flat surface, with the front panel facing you.
The first time you install the MCU, you assign an IP address using SSIGN AN a terminal cable connection to access the boot configuration DDRESS TO THE menu. At power-up, the MCU goes through the following boot phases: Auto-boot—The embedded operating system initializes and displays basic information.

The default password of the MCU is set to null. It is recommended HANGE THE EFAULT that you change the default administrator password. DMINISTRATOR ASSWORD Procedure In the sidebar, click the Device button to display the Device configuration tabs. In the Users tab select the Administrator user profile and click Edit.
The Export button on the toolbar allows you to save the MCU AVE THE configuration parameters as a file to your local hard disk or a ONFIGURATION network directory. Procedure In the toolbar, click Export. The Windows File Download dialog is displayed. Check the Save this file to disk option in the Windows File Download dialog and click OK.

You can initiate a conference by dialing to the MCU directly from TART A ONFERENCE an H.323 or SIP terminal or through a gateway from an H.320 terminal, a 3G-H.324M terminal or a regular telephone. Upon conference initiation, the conference manager can either invite other participants into the conference or supply each participant with the conference ID number for dialing directly into the conference.
