Spark on-boarding with LAN paired Touch 10
It is no longer required that the Touch 10 is directly paired to the video endpoint to offer Spark as an
activation alternative. While the system is in factory reset state and displaying the “Welcome” screen,
pair the Touch 10 to the system IP address and follow the steps on the Touch 10.
This also enables Touch 10 operation for systems previously only supported with the TRC 6 remote
control while activated on Spark, such as the Cisco TelePresence SX10 and SX20.
The Spark Room System must be running CE8.3.0 from a factory default state in order to on-board to
Spark with a LAN paired Touch 10. The “Welcome” screen must be visible and the wizard must not be
completed. Pair the Touch 10 to the Room System while in this state and follow the steps on the
Touch 10.

Power save mode on MX700, MX800 and MX800 Dual
“Power save” mode is designed to reduce power consumption while the system is not in use over
time, for example during out of office hours and weekends. The feature is an extension of the normal
standby mode but is disabled by default. To enable “power save” mode we recommend to configure a
power save schedule (out of office hours) from the web interface of the video system.
When the system enters “power save” mode, power supply to the integrated cameras are turned off
and will save approximately 15 watts per camera while in “power save” mode. The video system will
automatically wake up from power save mode 5 minutes before it enters the normal office hours and
use regular standby mode for the configured duration. The power save schedule is available from the
“Time” configuration and activated by setting “PowerSave” to “OutsideOfficeHours” within the
“Standby” configuration.
