Sharing and Annotating Content
You can share content from your PC with the other sites in
the video conference, and you can use the electronic pens
to annotate that content. For example, you can jot down
notes on a slide presentation, draw a pie chart, or highlight
changes in a file.
To share and annotate content:
1. Press on the system tray.
2. Open the file, presentation, or other content from your
PC that you want to share with the sites in the video
conference.
3. Pick up a pen and start writing on the screen.
The sites now see your annotations exactly as you
see them; however, they cannot annotate the content.
To delete annotations and stop sharing content:
• To delete annotations, put the pen back in the tray and
use the eraser.
• To stop sharing content, touch on the Instructor
Tools toolbar.
Adjusting a Camera

from the near or far site:
