Introducing the touchscreen controller
StarLeaf Personal Telepresence systems are provided with a touchscreen controller: the StarLeaf Phone 2120. You use the StarLeaf touchscreen controller as the means for making and controlling video calls with Personal Telepresence. Through the touchscreen controller you can access the directory and contacts. You can use the touchscreen controller to create ad hoc conferences, and to add and remove participants.

Out-of-hours power saving for touchscreen controllers
The backlight on a touchscreen controller dims between the hours of 7pm and 7am in the endpoint's local timezone. When a touchscreen controller is dimmed, it shows a screen saver displaying the time. Touching the dimmed screen causes the backlight to light again. A touchscreen does not dim for one hour after the last time it was touched.
Power saving is automatically enabled for all touchscreen controllers. There is no configuration.

The home screen
This is the home screen of the touchscreen controller:

Forwarding calls and Do not disturb
To forward calls either to voice mail or to another phone number, use the Call acceptance slider.
To set your status to 'do not disturb', and have all calls forwarded immediately to voice mail, move the Call acceptance slider to do not disturb. Anyone who has you as one of their favorites, can see that you are busy because your name is displayed on their StarLeaf device with a 'busy' icon.
To forward calls to voice mail or to another phone number, move the Call acceptance slider to forward calls. Choosing to forward calls means that anyone who has this system as a favorite can see that you have forwarded the calls. When you choose to forward calls, you see the following controls:
Choose forward to voicemail if you want your calls to be forwarded immediately to voicemail (for example if you are going on holiday).
Choose forward to: and enter the telephone number if you want your calls to be forwarded to another phone (for example to a mobile number).
Note: Connection from your StarLeaf endpoints to the public telephone network is an optional extra. For more information, contact your StarLeaf representative.
Note: If there is a mobile number for you in the StarLeaf system, you see a third option:
forward to my mobile. Choose this to have your calls forwarded to your mobile number.

Searching in the company directory
Some companies have a lot of entries in the directory. In this case, you might find it easier to use the search facility. To do so:
1.
Go to home screen > contacts > company directory and select search.
2. Use the keyboard to type the name of the person you want to find.
Note: As soon as you start typing, the search starts looking. You might only need to type the first letter of someone's name to find them.
The search keyboard looks like this:
Dialing addresses that include letters or symbols
You might need to dial someone who has a video address that includes letters or numbers and symbols. This might be known as a URI or it might be an IPaddress. If you need to do this, press * on the keypad (press the star key). Your display looks like this:
Note: If you are dialing an IP address, you can do so by using the keypad of the touchscreen controller. Press the star (asterisk) key where you would normally put a dot, and press the hash (pound) key to cause the system to dial the IP address you have entered.
Who can you call?
You can call:
n anyone in your company who has a StarLeaf endpoint (either the Breeze software or a
hardware enpoint). These people are all in your contacts
PersonalTelepresence User Guide, February02, 2017 Page 8 of 34
Making a call
n anyone outside your company who has a StarLeaf endpoint; just dial their email address
from your StarLeaf hardware video endpoint or from Breeze
n anyone else. If someone has not got a StarLeaf endpoint, you can still have a video call
with them. There are two ways of doing this:
l Send them an invite and they can click a link to video call you from their web
browser or they can install Breeze (the StarLeaf software endpoint)
l If they already have video conferencing equipment, they can call you using that (or
you can call them if you know their video address or URI)

conferencing (p17).
Press the Display tab to change what you can see in a video call. The Display tab looks like this:
The Display tab gives you these options:
n
video: select to view the other people in your video call. This is the default setting for a video call until someone shares a PC screen and then you see the shared PC screen, in which case, you may prefer to press this button to return to the video view
n
my PC: press to view your own PC's display (if you have attached your computer to the monitor). For example, in a long video call, you may need to continue working on your PC rather than always looking at the video view. Remember that other people in the video call may still be able to see you
n
no shared PC/shared PC: If someone is sharing content from their PC, you can press to view that shared content
n
self-view: use the self-view slider to either see yourself or not. Self view allows you to see the view of you that other people see when you are in a video call. Switching it off does not prevent them from seeing you. To prevent people from seeing you in a video call, press the Video mute button on the touchscreen controller
n
PiP: The PiP is the Picture-in-Picture view. For example, if you have self-view on, you see yourself in a PiP view. Use the PiP control on the Display tab to move the PiP around the screen. Note that if you are in a call where there is shared content (or you have pressed my PC) then the PiP control allows you to remove the PiP view; to do so, use the cross in the corner of the PiP control to close the PiP view. If you have closed the PiP view, you can make it reappear by pressing the plus sign on the PiP control
