Desktop Controller
What is MeetMe Desktop Controller?
MeetMe Desktop Controller is a new value-added feature for MeetMe. Accessible from your web browser, Desktop Controller allows you to manage and control MeetMe calls and enjoy an extra smooth conference calling experience with enhanced visibility, security and control.
How does Desktop Controller help me as chairperson during the call?
Yes - you can still dial into the call in the normal way from any phone. If you are also monitoring the call using MeetMe Controller, your name will appear on the real-time listing of call participants as soon as you have dialed in.
Instead of dialing in and punching access codes, can I use MeetMe Controller to request a 'dial out' to my phone?
During the call, Desktop Controller will always show you a real-time list of who's on your call. If someone is missing, you can use Desktop Controller to add them to the call.
At a conference-wide level you can mute and unmute all participants (lecture mode), start a recording, lock the conference, play roll call, enable conference continuation, and end the conference. At a participant level, you can mute and unmute a line, announce their roll call name, edit their display name, and disconnect the line.
*(Please note that if you mute a participant from the Desktop controller, they will not be able to use *6 to un-mute themselves)
How much does Desktop Controller cost?
Desktop Controller is free to use* and there are no monthly fees for the software. The only charges are for actual usage of the MeetMe service.
(*Subject to standard pricing for Recording and Dial Out services).
I'm not a MeetMe Global Access customer, but can I use Desktop Controller anyway on my conferencing service?
No - Desktop Controller is a value-added feature for MeetMe Global Access customers only. You must have a MeetMe Global Access account to benefit from Desktop Controller.
Do I need to have internet access for Desktop Controller to work?
Yes, you will need internet access.
Getting started
How do I launch Desktop Controller?
Desktop Controller can be launched directly from Microsoft Outlook if you have the BTMeetMe Add-in for Microsoft Outlook installed – just click on the Monitor or Join buttons on the toolbar.
As Chairperson with Desktop Controller, can I still dial into the call in the normal way?
Yes – you can still dial into the call in the normal way from any phone. If you are also monitoring the call using Desktop Controller, your name will appear on the real-time listing of call participants as soon as you've dialled in.
Instead of dialing in and punching access codes, can I use MeetMe Controller to request a 'dial out' to my phone?
Absolutely. If you prefer, you can use Desktop Controller to help you join the call without needing to remember any access numbers and pass codes. Using the 'Join as Chairperson' feature, you can select any phone you wish to join from and the conference will dial out to you immediately.
Can the chairperson use Desktop Controller to send out a call invitation?
Yes - the chairperson can use Desktop Controller to open an email or calendar appointment on their smartphone pre-populated with their MeetMe Global Access details, ready to send out to invited participants.
What happens if my MeetMe Global Access pass codes (either or both chair or participant pass codes) are changed?
The changes will be automatically pushed down to the Mobile Controller application within 12 hours.
If the chairperson uses the Desktop Controller application to dial-out to a participant, will the cost be incurred on the chairperson's phone bill or onto the cost of the MeetMe Global Access call?
The cost will be incurred on the MeetMe Global Access call.
What happens if I have more than one MeetMe Global Access conference? What if I have more than one MeetMe Global Access account?
The Desktop Controller can be configured to use more than one MeetMe Global Access conference.
Security
How does Desktop Controller give me greater visibility and security over my MeetMe calls?
Desktop Controller improves visibility by displaying the names and/or phone numbers of the participants on your call, in real-time. This leaves you free and comfortable as the chairperson to focus on your meeting, rather than always wondering or needing to ask "who just joined" or "who just dropped off?".
Desktop Controller improves security by enabling you to see if an uninvited guest accidentally joined your call, perhaps because a call runs late and overlaps into another starting call. You will also know exactly who's left your call, so that you're comfortable to have a private debrief with your team at the end of a wider call.
How are participants indentified?
Participants' lines are identified by a phone number and name. If the user has joined the conference through a web initiated call back, the name they have entered will display. If they have dialed in, their number will be looked up against your account provisioned address book and a caller-ID database. Displayed names can be edited by double clicking on the name.
Some of the participants are listed as 'unknown' or 'withheld' – why?
If the participant is calling from a phone number that has Caller ID blocked, then Desktop Controller application will display "number withheld" or "unknown." In cases where the Caller ID is not blocked, then a a name, number, or location is displayed
Troubleshooting:
An error message displayed saying there was a network problem, what should I do?
The Desktop Controller requires an internet connection to function. If there is a network problem, the Controller will inform you with an error message. Check your internet connection and try to monitor again.
Which browsers are supported?
You can use any mainstream browser that is flash-enabled.
If participants are calling from a building that sends out a generic number (perhaps from multiple extensions behind the same switchboard), what will the Desktop Controller application present?
In this case, Desktop Controller will show multiple instances of the numbers presented from that location. Although it is not possible to resolve this common Caller ID against individual participant names, it may present the name of the company associated with that switchboard number.
MeetMe Mobile Controller
What is MeetMe Mobile Controller?
MeetMe Mobile Controller is a new value-added feature for MeetMe. It is an application for your smartphone that helps you as the chairperson of a conference call. With Mobile Controller, you can set up and manage MeetMe calls from your smartphone and enjoy an extra smooth conference calling experience with enhanced visibility, security and control.
Does that mean I have to take the conference call from my mobile phone?
No – the Mobile Controller application turns your smartphone into a 'remote controller' of your MeetMe call, independent of the phone you are using for actual participation in the call. The chairperson and all invited participants can still dial in as normal from any phone, e.g. their desk phone or meeting room speaker phone. However, as chairperson, you can then manage the call from your smartphone for enhanced visibility, security and control.
Which smartphones are supported?
You can use Mobile Controller on any recent BlackBerry (with operating system 4.1 or newer) , Windows Mobile smartphone (with operating system 5 or newer), iPhone running iOS v3, and Android.
How does Mobile Controller give me greater visibility and security over my MeetMe calls?
Mobile Controller improves visibility by displaying the names and/or phone numbers of the participants on your call, in real-time. This leaves you free and comfortable as the chairperson to focus on your meeting, rather than always wondering or needing to ask "who just joined" or "who just dropped off?" Mobile Controller will even alert you when your conference has started by buzzing an alert to your smartphone as soon as the first invited guest joins your conference.
Mobile Controller improves security by enabling you to see if an uninvited guest accidentally joined your call, perhaps because a call runs late and overlaps into another starting call. You will also know exactly who's left your call, so that you're comfortable to have a private debrief with your team at the end of a wider call.
As Chairperson with Mobile Controller, can I still dial into the call in the normal way?
Sure – you can still dial into the call in the normal way from any phone. If you are also monitoring the call using Mobile Controller on your smartphone, your name will appear on the application's real-time listing of call participants as soon as you've dialled in.
Instead of dialling in and punching access codes, can I use Mobile Controller to request a 'dial out' to my phone?
Absolutely. If you prefer, you can use Mobile Controller to help you join the call without needing to remember any access numbers and pass codes. Using the 'Join as Chairperson' feature, you can select any phone you wish to join from and the conference will dial out to you iMM:diately.
How else does Mobile Controller help me as chairperson during the call?
During the call, Mobile Controller will always show you a real-time list of who's on your call. If someone is missing, you can use Mobile Controller to add them to the call from your smartphone address book. If someone has joined from a noisy location – perhaps their car or a noisy airport concourse – then you can use Mobile Controller to mute that particular participant.
Below is a full feature list of Mobile Controller:
- Receive 'Call Start Alerts' to your smartphone as soon as the first invited participant joins your call
- Join the call as chairperson – from any telephone – without the need to punch in your MeetMe access numbers or pass codes
- Monitor, in real-time, who's on your MeetMe call – or missing – at any given moment
- Make sure only your invited participants are in the conference
- Add missing participants into the call from your smartphone's address book
- Mute individual participants with any disturbing background noise (Please note that if you mute a participant from the mobile controller, they will not be able to use *6 to un-mute themselves.)
- Lock the conference to ensure no further access
- Record the call
- Assign a billing code to a conference
- Send email or calendar invitations from your smartphone, pre-populated with your MeetMe dial-in details
Do my invited guests need to have Mobile Controller too?
No – Mobile Controller is essentially a tool for the chairperson. All your invited guests can join the call by dialling in as normal.
If my smartphone is turned off or does not have a data signal, will my MeetMe call still work?
Yes – Your MeetMe account can work completely independently of the Mobile Controller application. Mobile Controller is an optional tool designed to help the chairperson manage their calls for a smooth calling experience, but it is not a requirement in any way.
Some of the participants are listed as 'unknown' or 'withheld' – why?
If the participant is calling from a phone number that has Caller ID blocked, then Mobile Controller application will display "number withheld" or "unknown." In cases where the Caller ID is not blocked, then Mobile Controller tries to match the Caller ID to a name either in your smartphone's address book or a list of phone numbers belonging to colleagues in your company. If no name is found, a location is displayed.
If participants are calling from a building that sends out a generic number (perhaps from multiple extensions behind the same switchboard), what will the Mobile Controller application present?
In this case, Mobile Controller will show multiple instances of the numbers presented from that location. Although it is not possible to resolve this common Caller ID against individual participant names, it may present the name of the company associated with that switchboard number.
If I am talking on my smartphone, can I use Mobile Controller to monitor and control the conference?
This depends whether you have a smartphone on a 3G, UMTS, or EVDO network. If so, then yes, you will be able to speak into your smartphone and use Mobile Controller at the same time. However, on GPRS or EDGE networks, you will only be able to either speak or control from your smartphone - not both. As such, if you choose to join the call as chairperson from your smartphone, you would lose the call management capabilities of Mobile Controller.
Can the chairperson use Mobile Controller to send out a call invitation?
Yes - the chairperson can use Mobile Controller to open an email or calendar appointment on their smartphone pre-populated with their MeetMe Global Access details, ready to send out to invited participants.
What dial-in numbers are sent to invited participants?
This would only be the toll and toll-free number associated with the conference on that bridge. Whatever number was assigned when the conference was created.
How are global access numbers stored/presented in the invitations?
They won't be, only the toll and toll-free number associated with the conference on that bridge. Whatever number was assigned when the conference was created.
How much does Mobile Controller cost?
Mobile Controller is free to download and there are no monthly fees for the software. The only charges are for actual usage of teh MeetMe service.
How do I get Mobile Controller?
An existing MeetMe Global Access service is required to use Mobile Controller. Visit our install page for instructions on downloading and installing Mobile Controller for your specific mobile device.
I've tried to download Mobile Controller but I can't, why?
If you have a BlackBerry smartphone that has been set up by your IT department using a BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES), you may have to ask their permission to download the application.
What has to be done to deploy via the BlackBerry Enterprise Server?
Deploying via the BES is fast and simple, and is often preferred by enterprise IT departments so that they can retain greater control and management over approved applications on mobile devices. The process typically takes no more than 15 minutes, is approved by Research In Motion (RIM) and is fully documented for the BES Administrator.
Our company does not have a BlackBerry Enterprise Server - does that matter?
No, that doesn't matter at all. As above, the application can be downloaded to BlackBerry or Windows Mobile smartphones by visiting http://m.btconferencing.com/controller on your smartphone browser. In fact, there is no equivalent of the BES for Windows Mobile devices, and therefore this is the required download method.
What happens if I change my smart phone?
If you change your smartphone, you will have to re-install the Mobile Controller application. If the application does not login automatically, you will be asked to enter your chairperson and participant pass codes to login.
What happens if my MeetMe Global Access pass codes (either or both chair or participant pass codes) are changed?
The changes will be automatically pushed down to the Mobile Controller application within 12 hours.
I'm not a MeetMe Global Access customer, but can I use Mobile Controller anyway on my conferencing service?
No - Mobile Controller is a value-added feature for MeetMe Global Access customers only. You must have a MeetMe Global Access account to benefit from Mobile Controller.
If the chairperson uses the Mobile Controller application to dial-out to a participant, will the cost be incurred on the chairperson's mobile phone bill or onto the cost of the MeetMe Global Access call?
The cost will be incurred on the MeetMe Global Access call.
What happens if I have more than one MeetMe Global Access account?
The Mobile Controller can be configured to use more than one MeetMe Global Access account.
How do I uninstall the application?
Please follow your smartphone's instructions to uninstall the application. On the BlackBerry, go to Options, Applications, find the Mobile Controller application, and choose Delete from the menu. On a Windows Mobile smartphone, go to Settings>>Remove Programs, choose the Mobile Controller application, and click Remove. If you have a BlackBerry smartphone and the application was deployed using the BES, you may need to talk to your BES administrator to uninstall the application.

Can I join the MeetMe conference from my Lync client?
Yes, the quickest method is to dial out to your Lync DID phone number from the Conference Connect client. Another option is to dial out to the MeetMe phone number and use the pin pad in Lync to enter the passcode and .
Why do some people who dial in to my bridge get renamed and some don't?
Conference Connect will recognize anyone who is in your buddy list or who you have renamed in the past (as long as that cookie hasn't been deleted).
When I drag some users there are no phone numbers for them?
This can happen for two reasons; first, the users don't have any numbers stored in their Lync client or Active Directory. The second usually applies to users who are outside your organization and are federated with, this applies to the Privacy Relationship level they have you set to in their buddy list; you need to be at Colleagues or higher for them to share their phone numbers with you. Ask the person to change your privacy relationship or add a new number in Conference Connect for them.
When should I use the Lync (PC to PC) conference feature vs the Conference Connect feature?
Lync calls are great between internal users. When you need to have a high quality audio experience and required Global Dial In/Dial out, Operator and complete call control then MeetMe with Conference Connect are your best choice.
When using the Print Roster feature, why don't I see all the participants?
No, if your Internet or network connection fails this will NOT impact your current MeetMe audio conference. Everyone will be able to hear each other and you can use the DTMF phone key commands; to end the conference,
