Studio X30/X50 Teams mode paired with Trio8800 as controller -» no access to camera controls

[Gauthier]

Hello,

We can’t find camera control (zoom in/out, preselection) screen on Trio8800 as controler paired with the X30/X50.

One can access the screen on the TC8 tablet, but I really didn’t find any way to access it on the Trio 8800

Is it a known "bad" integration of Teams in poly systems ? Do someone knows when this is supposed to be solved ?

Thanks.

Hello @Gauthier ,

Welcome back to the Poly Community.

The Poly Trio 8800 and 8500 have limited hardware capabilities and the use case for these is to re-purpose previous installations of the Trio to be able to use as a remote control.

I am unable to speak about future releases and the TC8 should be considered for "full" control.

If you have access to a Poly Sales engineer have a word with them as they can share roadmap.

Hello @Gauthier ,

following these instructions >here< also enable the Trio to be a Microphone.

Hello Steffen,

Thanks for your answer.

Yes no problem to pair the 8800 with the Poly x30/x50, the only thing is the access to camera control.

But ok, I’ll try to talk with a sale engineer !

Regards.

Just a last question: 

Do you know if I will have the same problem with the Trio C60 ?

Thanks

Hello @Gauthier 

via the medium of a community, I am unable to comment on the roadmap and or future releases.

Please speak to a sales engineer and I believe we have competitive pricing when you switch to a C60.

Best regards

Indeed the C60 is also somewhat limited when paired with an X50 and TC8. We are solely using them as expansion microphones (but over IP) and the interface just as the touchscreen directional thingy which is a bit limiting. You can't even create a new ad-hoc meet now from them (with the latest Teams interface on the X50).

Hopefully there will be firmware updates in the near future that introduce more functionality.
