Adjusting the Sound on the ViewStation
The volume of the ViewStation is indirectly related to the volume on the
television monitor. The volume on the television monitor should be set to
three-fourths its maximum volume and the ViewStation should be set lower, at
a comfortable hearing level. To adjust the volume on the ViewStation, press the
volume buttons on the remote control.
To prevent far-site participants from hearing your conversation, press the
MUTE button on the remote or the microphone pod. Notice that the red light on
top of the microphone pod is illuminated. The far- and near-sites will be alerted
that mute is turned on when the Mute icon appears in the bottom left corner of
the television screen.
Positioning Microphone Pods
The microphone pod should be placed slightly in front of the meeting
participants and the ViewStation on a flat surface. Since people in a video call
usually look at the monitor when they speak, the microphone pod should be
placed in the direction they are looking.
If you have a large conference room, you can add another microphone pod.
These can be daisy-chained together by connecting their cables to one another.
Center them on a table.
