Note: What Happens if I Wipe the Touchscreen, But It’s Still Dirty?
Dampen a soft, lint-free cloth with an isopropyl alcohol and water solution of 50:50, and then
wipe the screen with the cloth. Always use the dampened cloth to apply the solution; never apply
the solution directly, which could seep inside the screen or stain the phone. In addition, do not
use caustic chemicals to clean the touchscreen.
Registering the Phone
Generally, your phone will be deployed with multiple other phones. In this case, your system
administrator will configure the phone parameters beforehand, so that after you set up your phone, the
phone will be registered and ready to use.
If your phone is not part of a large phone deployment, your phone may not be registered after you set it
up. Before you use your phone, you or your system administrator will have to register it.
Web Info: How to Register Your Phone

Standalone Polycom Phones (Quick Tip 44011).
Configuring Your Phone Using the Web Configuration
Utility
This user guide explains how to update phone settings from your phone, using the phone’s menu
commands. If you wish, you can also update these settings remotely with the Polycom Web
Configuration Utility.
The phone’s Web Configuration Utility enables you to view and configure phone behavior from a
computer using any compatible Web browser. The utility provides a browser-friendly view of your
phone’s current settings. Using the utility, you can perform many of the same updates from your
computer that you can perform using your phone’s menu system.
You can access the utility using any compatible Web browser installed on a computer that resides on the
same network as your phone. Before you begin, you’ll need to know the IP address of your phone, and
the user password to log in to the utility.
