Connecting your PC
During a videoconference you can send information from a PC to the far end. This can be done in two ways:-
Option 1 - The information can be sent INSTEAD of your own image or
Option 2 - The information can be sent AS WELL as your image.
The first option is done by switching the Main Video source between main cam and PC. The second option is
done by adding the PC information into the call at the same time – this is known as Duo Video.
Remember to first test your PC is connected properly by connecting your PC to the codec using the VGA
cable provided as shown in the diagram below:-
VGA Cable VGA Connection
If the PC images does not automatically appear you may then have one of two messages appear.
“PC Not Connected” – if this message appears:-
•you will need to find the key marked "FUNCTION" or FN (usually on the lower left corner of the
keyboard).
•Then, search for a key that has either the letters "LCD/CRT" or a little monitor icon. Most often, it will be
in the top row of keys marked F1 through F12, but not always.
When you have both keys located, press the FUNCTION key and then the LCD/CRT key that you located
before. It might take a couple of seconds for the computer to react. This should toggle the screen image
through a cycle like this: a) Image on Laptop Screen b) Image on Display Screen c) Image on Both.
“Unsupported video format” – if this message appears:-
•Set your laptop or desktop computer to 1024x768 or less
How do you know what resolution you're using? PC Windows 95 and above:
Start>Control Panels>Display>Settings Tab. On the right, you'll see the current resolution setting and a slider
to change it.
