Using a ShowStation IP
The ShowStation IP works best with two ViewStations, two
ShowStations with LAN cards, and an RJ-45 cable. Follow these
steps to connect and use this configuration:
1.
Use the provided blue-tipped RJ-45 cable to connect the
ShowStation LAN card to the blue LAN port on the back of the
ViewStation. You can also connect the ShowStation and
ViewStation to the same LAN.
2.
Find the LAN name of the ShowStation by clicking on the
Toolbar icon on the main menu of the ShowStation. The Site
Name is under the Preferences tab.
3.
Power on the ViewStation.
4.
Select System Info>Admin Setup>Data Conference and
enter the name of the ShowStation on the Data Conference
screen.
Place a video call between the two ViewStations. When the
ViewStations connect, the ShowStations synchronize with one
another automatically. Once they connect, a whiteboard appears on
the ShowStations’ LCD displays. It takes approximately 30 seconds
for the whiteboard to appear once the video call is placed. You are
now ready to use your ShowStation.
