Connections Between the Sender and Receiver

available senders. As soon as a sender is found in the network, the VIP XD displays a JPEG
snapshot from that sender. All senders found are listed in the Video sources list field.

order to activate data and audio transmission. The window displays a green loudspeaker icon
in the bottom right corner of the video image the first time an audio connection is made. This
