 Using the Polycom PowerCam Presenter

2 - 13

2.

Do one of the following:

If you are planning to enable automatic zooming for the Presenter 

View, stand 20 feet (6 meters) to 30 feet (9 meters) from the camera. (If 

your room is smaller, you may have to stand closer.)

If you are not planning to enable automatic zooming for the Presenter 

View, stand at the distance at which that Presenter View will be used. 

For example, if you are going to use the Left Presenter View when the 

presenter is standing near the whiteboard, then stand near the 

whiteboard when setting that Presenter View.

3.

Use  

Left, 

 

Right, 

 

Up, 

 

Down

, or 

 

Zoom 

to adjust 

the camera to the position you want for the particular Presenter View 

button.

4.

Press  

Auto Zoom 

if you want to enable automatic zooming for the 

Presenter View. (This setting is disabled by default.)
Polycom recommends that you enable automatic zooming for the 

Presenter View under these conditions:

You are going to set the Wide Presenter View.

Your distance from the camera is going to vary more than 5 feet (1½ 

meters). For example, if you plan on standing about 8 feet (2 meters) 

to 12 feet (4 meters) from the camera during your entire presentation, 

you do not need to enable automatic zooming (although you may still 

enable it if you wish). If, on the other hand, you expect to walk 

anywhere from 4 feet (1 meter) to 30 feet (9 meters) from the camera 

during your presentation, you should definitely enable automatic 

zooming.

5.

Press and hold the Presenter View button that corresponds to the 

camera’s current position. For example, you can press 

 

Tight 

if you 

have set the camera so that it’s zoomed in closely on the presenter. 
Hold the button for at least five seconds or, if you have your video output 

connected to connector 

 on the Polycom Presenter controller, until the 

following icon appears on the screen:

This icon remains on the screen for three seconds.

6.

Repeat steps 2 through 5 for each Presenter View button that you want to 

set or change.

Tight
