14 Who can you call? Who can you call? You can call: anyone in your company who has a StarLeaf endpoint (either the Breeze software or a hardware enpoint). These people are all in your contacts anyone outside your company who has a StarLeaf endpoint; just dial their address from your StarLeaf hardware video endpoint or from Breeze 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: Send them an invite to install Breeze (the StarLeaf software endpoint) 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) These two methods are described below. Inviting a guest to use Breeze Guest invites allow you to invite guests to install Breeze (the StarLeaf software endpoint). In this way, you can have a video call with anyone. You may invite as many guests as you want. To send an invite: 1. To send a guest invite, choose Invite from the home screen of your StarLeaf endpoint or Breeze.

15 Who can you call? 5. You will receive an notification when your guest has signed up and logged in successfully. Dialing from third-party endpoints If the person you want to call does not have StarLeaf equipment, but does have some other video-conferencing equipment, you can still call them and they can call you. This will work if the other person's equipment is connected to the Internet. The way that person will dial you will depend on the manufacturer of their endpoint, for example Cisco uses a different dialing convention to Sony. All the details that someone needs in order to be able to call you are linked from the guest invite. So, simply send the person an invite and tell them to call you. The picture below shows the invite and the link to the instructions which are unique for each StarLeaf user: Note: You can call people who have third-party endpoints. Ask them for their "URI dialing details". You can dial a URI from your StarLeaf hardware endpoint or from Breeze. If they do not know their "URI dialing details", ask them to call you using the information in the guest . After the call, you can add them to your personal contacts using the information from your recent calls. For information on how to dial a URI, refer to Dialing addresses that include letters and numbers.
