Talking to someone using Voice Chat
Voice Chat lets you speak with a person at the other end of a LapLink connection, using the same line that
transfers data between the two computers. Both computers must be configured for full duplex if you are to
talk as you would on the telephone. If either computer is configured for half duplex, you must wait for the
other person to stop talking before you begin.
Use Voice Chat to talk to someone you’re connected to over
LapLink while using other LapLink services like File Transfer
and Remote Control. To use Voice Chat, you must have a
computer that is capable of recording and playing sound.
You may have started Voice Chat when you connected to
the remote computer. If not, you can start it after you open
the connection.
How you talk to the other person
in Voice Chat depends on
whether the current conversation
is using half duplex or full duplex.
You can adjust the volume of the
speaker and microphone or mute
them entirely.
When you’re using half duplex,
watch the icon to determine when
to talk and when to listen.
