From your Lync 2013 client find any contact you wish to video conference with from your contacts list
right click on their name and select ‘Start a Video Call’
When the call has started, check that the far site can see both the panoramic video (displayed at the
bottom of the stage) and the active speaker video (shown in the main window of the stage). Ensure
the camera is switching between active speakers by having participants from around the table speak
separately (this should cause the main video window to switch on the last person who spoke).
