Scheduling a Cisco TelePresence Meeting with Cisco WebEx Capability
To schedule a Cisco TelePresence meeting that includes Cisco WebEx capability you must follow the guidelines for entitlement and availability to schedule the Cisco TelePresence rooms (sites). For detailed instructions on scheduling Cisco TelePresence rooms, visit the Cisco TelePresence website on Cisco.com.
Before You Begin
You must complete the configuration steps on the supporting Cisco applications before you can schedule Cisco WebEx meetings. See the following chapters:
•Chapter 2, "Configuring Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch on the Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch"
•Chapter 3, "Configuring Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch on Cisco Unified Communications Manager"
•Chapter 4, "Configuring Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch on Cisco TelePresence Manager"
Conference Room Configuration Tips
•Schedule rooms at least 30 minutes in advance.
•All Cisco TelePresence rooms that you schedule must be running CTS software version 1.7.0.
•Reserve the rooms as "Resources" for scheduling to function properly.
Important Notes
Note If you are booking a Cisco TelePresence meeting with Cisco WebEx, do not use the Cisco WebEx Productivity Tools Plugin. Instead, wait for CTS-Manager email and click on Cisco WebEx button.
If you are booking a Cisco WebEx meeting only with no Cisco TelePresence rooms, use the Cisco WebEx Productivity Tools Plugin.
Proceed to the following sections to schedule Cisco TelePresence meetings with Cisco WebEx capability:
•Scheduling Cisco WebEx-Enabled Meetings with Microsoft Outlook and Plug-in
•Scheduling Cisco WebEx-Enabled Meetings with Other Groupware Clients
Scheduling Cisco WebEx-Enabled Meetings with Microsoft Outlook and Plug-in
To schedule a Cisco TelePresence meeting with Cisco WebEx capability using Microsoft Outlook and the required plug-in, follow these steps:
Step 1 From your Microsoft Outlook Calendar, choose the Time slot on the Date you wish to schedule your meeting and click the Schedule Meeting button on the Productivity Toolbar.
Step 2 In the Subject field, enter a description of the meeting. For example "CBC: New Product Demonstration."
Step 3 Go to the Scheduling tab and click the Add Others button at the bottom of the page.
Step 4 Choose Add From Address Book.
Step 5 Go to the Select Attendees and Resources screen and select the desired Cisco TelePresence room and location from the Show Names drop-down menu.
Step 6 Click the Resources button to include this resource for your meeting.
Step 7 Repeat steps 5 and 6 as needed to add at least one more Cisco TelePresence room.
Tip Remember to click the Resources button to reserve each room.
Step 8 After you have finished adding resources, click OK to close the Select Attendees and Resources screen.
Step 9 Check the Scheduling tab for conflicts.
Step 10 To start your meeting do one of the following:
•Premium Users—If you are a premium user using the Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch feature, simply press your designated One-Button-to-Push (OBTP) on the in-room CTS Cisco Unified IP phone. Audio and video is automatically connected between the CTS endpoints and Cisco WebEx. See Launching Your Meeting with One-Button-to-Push for more information.
•Permitted Users—If you are a permitted user and wish to enable the Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch feature, go to the email sent from CTS-Manager, click on the link, and follow the instructions to set up the Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch feature and start your meeting using OBTP.
•Non- Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch Users—If you used the Outlook plug-in to schedule a Cisco WebEx meeting but did not select any Cisco TelePresence rooms, you are not using the Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch feature and you must manually conference in Cisco WebEx to your Cisco TelePresence meeting, see the "Conferencing in Cisco WebEx to a Cisco TelePresence Meeting" section.
Scheduling Cisco WebEx-Enabled Meetings with Other Groupware Clients
To schedule a Cisco TelePresence meeting with Cisco WebEx capability using Microsoft Outlook without plug-in, Outlook Web Access (OWA), Lotus Notes, and other groupware clients, follow these steps:
Step 1 From your scheduling calendar, choose the Time slot on the Date you wish to schedule your meeting and click the Schedule Meeting button on the Productivity Toolbar.
Step 2 In the Subject field, enter a description of the meeting. For example "CBC: New Product Demonstration."
Step 3 Go to the Scheduling tab and click the Add Others button at the bottom of the page.
Step 4 Choose Add From Address Book.
Step 5 Go to the Select Attendees and Resources screen and select the desired Cisco TelePresence room and location from the Show Names drop-down menu.
Step 6 Click the Resources button to include this resource for your meeting.
Step 7 Repeat steps 5 and 6 as needed to add at least one more Cisco TelePresence room.
Tip Remember to click the Resources button to reserve each room.
Step 8 After you have finished adding resources, click OK to close the Select Attendees and Resources screen.

Step 10 Wait for the email from CTS-Manager.
Step 11 Click on WebEx button in the email. The CTS-Manager Administration screen appears.
Step 12 Select the Add WebEx radio button and click Apply.
Step 13 Wait for a second email from CTS-Manager that will include the Cisco WebEx URL and dialin information.
Step 14 Cut and paste the Cisco WebEx URL and dialin information into the original meeting invitation and forward by email to the remote meeting participants who will not be in the Cisco TelePresence room.
Step 15 Use OBTP to join the meeting at the scheduled start time. See Launching Your Meeting with One-Button-to-Push for more information.
Conferencing in Cisco WebEx to a Cisco TelePresence Meeting
Use the information in this section to manually conference in Cisco WebEx once a Cisco TelePresence meeting has begun and the Cisco TelePresence WebEx OneTouch feature is not used.
When a Cisco TelePresence meeting includes Cisco WebEx capability, it is important to decide in advance which one of the Cisco TelePresence rooms (sites) will conference in the Cisco TelePresence call and combine it with the Cisco WebEx web room and teleconference connection. If the scheduler has not designated this in the invitation, be sure to agree on this responsibility as soon as the meeting starts so that only one location does the conferencing.
Important Notes
•All Cisco TelePresence sites will join the meeting as normal through Cisco TelePresence Manager.
•All Cisco WebEx-only participants will join the Cisco WebEx meeting as normal:
–Using the meeting password sent in the Calendar event.
–Accepting the call-back from Cisco WebEx to join the teleconference.
•Only one Cisco TelePresence room (site) conferences the Cisco WebEx and Cisco TelePresence sessions together.
To start a scheduled Cisco TelePresence meeting with Cisco WebEx capability from the designated Cisco TelePresence room (site), follow these steps:
Step 1 Locate your meeting on the Cisco Unified Communications Manager display on the CTS Cisco Unified IP phone, and start the call by selecting it from the touch screen. See Launching Your Meeting with One-Button-to-Push.
Step 2 Connect your PC to the display screen using the cable provided if you want to share a presentation.
Step 3 Go to your Outlook Calendar event and start the Cisco WebEx meeting by logging in with your username and Cisco WebEx meeting applications password.
Note When the Join Teleconference window opens, click Cancel to close it.
Step 4 Touch the Confrn button on the CTS Cisco Unified IP phone.
Step 5 Use the numbered keypad to enter the dial-in number, including the digit to access an outside line. (For example: 918665551212).
Step 6 Touch the Dial softkey.
Note The Cisco TelePresence main display screen will go blank momentarily.
Step 7 At the prompt, press the Tones button then 3 (for Cisco WebEx meetings). Then press Send.
Step 8 At the prompt, press the Tones button, enter the [Cisco WebEx Meeting number] and press #. Then press Send.
Step 9 At the prompt, press the Tones button and #. Then press Send.
Step 10 Touch the Exit softkey.
Step 11 Touch the Cnfr/Join softkey to conference the Cisco WebEx teleconference with the Cisco TelePresence audio call.
Note The Cisco TelePresence main display screen should engage live video again.
All portions of the meeting are now active so the meeting can begin.
Note Video between Cisco TelePresence and Cisco WebEx is not yet integrated, so the participants joining via Cisco TelePresence will see only other Cisco TelePresence sites, while Cisco WebEx-only Participants will see other Cisco WebEx-only users who choose to send video.
Step 12 When the meeting ends, touch the End Call softkey to disconnect all audio. The Cisco TelePresence main display screen will display the Cisco logo on a black background.
Launching Your Meeting with One-Button-to-Push
