Using an auto attendant
Your system administrator may have set up an auto attendant for you to use to join 
conferences. Auto attendants simplify the way you can join conferences. An auto 
attendant presents you with a series of menus from which you can choose to:
join a conference
create a new conference
access other auto attendant menus
Calling an auto attendant
Your system administrator should provide you with information about which method 
you should use to call an auto attendant. There are typically three ways to call an auto 
attendant using your video endpoint. Using an:
IP address (for example, 10.2.123.123)
Host name (for example, hostname.companyname.com)
Standard E.164 number
Navigating the auto attendant menu
When you connect to the MCU, the main menu will display on your video screen, and 
you will hear the audio instructions. 
You can navigate the auto attendant menu in two ways. Using:
Far-End Camera Controls (FECC)
Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF)
Navigating the auto attendant using FECC
The remote control of your video endpoint will provide Far-End Camera Control 
(FECC) as arrow buttons (that is up, down, left and right arrows). 
Use the Up and Down arrows to highlight the option or item you require; use Right to 
make your selection. To return from a previous menu from a sub-menu, use Left.
To jump to the end of the menu if you are at the start, press Up. Similarly to jump to the 
start if you are at the end, press Down. A scroll bar in the bottom right of the auto 
attendant screen indicates where you are in the menu (the scroll bar only appears if the 
list of conferences is too long for the video screen). You can jump to the start from any 
point in the menu by pressing #2. Similarly, you can jump to the end from any point in 
the menu by pressing #8.
