For videoconferences with more than four participants, consider adding another microphone.
  • Page 16: Tips For Using Documents

    Tips for Using Documents When you want to use documents during your videoconference, follow these tips: Make sure people at all the sites have copies of the documents.

  • Page 25: Making A Call Ñ The Basics

    Making a Call — The Basics With your Concorde 4500, you can make a video call in either of two ways: You can manually dial, just like you do with an ordinary telephone. You can directory dial, which is like picking a name from a phone book and having the system automatically dial the number for you.
  • Page 26: Manual Dialing

    Manual Dialing You manually dial a call by pressing the number buttons on the keypad the same way you dial a telephone call. You usually manually dial numbers that arenÕt in your Dialing Directory. With video calls, you often have to enter two numbers instead of F.Y.I.

  • Page 31: Dialing Into A Multipoint Call

    Dialing into a Multipoint Call A multipoint call is just like a regular video call except that there are more than two sites Ñ in the same way that a conference call is a telephone call with more than two parties. Multipoint videoconferences are controlled by a device called a multipoint bridge.
  • Page 32: Joining A Dataconference Call

    Joining a Dataconference Call You can use your Concorde¥4500 to participate in a dataconference call. Often referred to as a T.120 conference (from the industry standard), dataconferencing lets you share information from an electronic whiteboard, an overhead projector, or an online Þle. If you have a T.120 peripheral connected to your system, you can dataconference with other videoconferencing systems that have T.120 peripherals.
  • Page 33: Redialing A Call

    Redialing a Call Just as with the redial feature on a telephone, the redial feature on your Concorde 4500 lets you automatically call the last number you dialed. This is especially useful when the system youÕre calling is busy or if you get disconnected during a call.
