Pressing AUTO cycles through Voice Tracking, Presets, and Off.
Adjusting Sound
The volume of the ViewStation is related to the volume of the
television monitor. For best results:
1. Set the volume on the television monitor to half its maximum
volume.
2. Using the VOLUME buttons on the remote control, set the
ViewStation volume at a comfortable hearing level.
To prevent far-site participants from hearing your conversation,
press the MUTE button on the remote control or press the button on
top of the microphone pod. The red light on top of the microphone
pod is illuminated. When the MUTE button is pressed, the Mute icon
is displayed at the bottom left of the television monitor at both the far
and near sites.
Positioning Microphone Pods
Place the microphone pods in front of the video call participants.
Excessive feedback may occur if the microphone pods is positioned
too close to the audio output of the ViewStation. Place the
microphone pod 5 feet or 1.5 meters away from television speaker
and within 5 feet or 1.5 meters of the video call participants.
If a large conference room is used, ensure that all participants are
within 10 feet or 3 meters of the microphone pods. One additional
microphone pod can be connected in series. An additional
microphone pod can be purchased from the Polycom Website.
Sending Snapshots
The ViewStation’s snapshot feature transmits snapshots from any
local camera to the participants in a video call.
To send a snapshot:
1. Press the number on the remote that corresponds to the number
of the camera on the screen.
2. Position and zoom the camera as needed.
3. Press the SNAPSHOT button on the remote control.
