Cisco EX90 Dual Screen Display

I have a 60" TV right next to the Cisco EX90.  How do I get the video-caller to be displayed on the TV rather than the Cisco screen?

Looking at the EX90 admin guide, it doesn't look like it's possible.  Looking at the HDMI output the only option is:

Second: Show the presentation, if present, on the monitor connected to the HDMI output.

It looks like you can't swap the outputs, if it were possible, then there would be an additional "First" option with comments about the main video stream that's typically on the LCD output.

As well as the HDMI output above, the LCD output only contains an option for the internal LCD or First, meaning it can only show the main video stream and presentation on the internal monitor.

The reasoning behind what Patrick has indicated is that the camera is located on top of the EX90, so when you're looking and talking at the other people, you should be facing the camera.  If you're facing the second screen off to the side, then you're not going to be facing the camera and therefore aren't going to be providing a good image of yourselves to the other end.

On other devices, with seperate cameras, this is achievable and configurable on the endpoints.

That's unfortunate because our TV is directly above the Cisco EX90, so camera position would not have been an issue for us.

 

I suppose we should have gone with a much larger version than the EX90 for our 20 person conference room.  Thanks for the responses though, they were very helpful.

Yep. The EX90, as a desktop unit, isn't really designed for a 20 person conference room.  The SX80 is probably more down the line of what you should have for that sort of room, although you may have been able to get away with an SX20 depending on your use scenarios.

The SX20 could still be something to look in to as it may be able to be fitted in to your existing room and you can re-deloy the EX90 elsewhere.
