What You Should Know About Participating in a Video Call
There are several general recommendations you should follow to optimize your videoconferencing
experience.
We recommend that you read this section before participating in a videoconference for the first
time.
•
If you are using a portable computer during a meeting, do not place it too close to the
microphone pods. Noise produced by the computer cooling system may be increased by the
microphones and aggravate the quality of audio in the meeting.
•
Use natural gestures as in a real meeting.
•
Place chairs so that you and other participants appear in the middle of the monitors. Verify
that the background does not take up too much space on the monitors.
•
Place the Microphone Pod on the table in front of people.
•
Use 2 Microphone Pods in case of large conference tables.
•
Do not place papers or other objects in front of the Microphone Pod.
•
Do not rustle papers or tap on the conference table or the Microphone Pod.
•
Mute the Microphone Pod before moving it.
•
Speak in a normal voice, not louder or softer.
•
Avoid using your cellular phones during your meeting to avoid EMI (electromagnetic
interference).
