Graphical user interface for system status alert on videoconference terminal

摘要

An "Alert" tab or button (22) is displayed on the Graphical User Interface (GUI) of a videoconference terminal when a problem is detected in the embedded system. Selecting the tab or button (22) - e.g., with a pointing device - causes the display to switch to a diagnostic page which provides a specific indication of the problem which has occurred. In some embodiments, the diagnostic page may provide a graphical indication of the status of various sub-systems.
