A successful video conference provides
a face-to-face meeting, even if the
participants are miles or continents apart.
Keep in mind that it still is a meeting—
normal etiquette and dress code apply
even here.
General
Consider setting the unit toAutomatic

Answer, but mute the microphone for
privacy reasons, if possible.
Do not forget to rehearse “the noble

art of operating a video system” to the
extent needed.
In the meeting room
Make sure that you do not experience
•
obstacles blocking the view to the
microphone at all times.
Noise sources like computers placed
•
on the table should always be placed
away from the microphone of your unit.
The noise from such sources is often
perceived as surprisingly loud by the
remote participants.
Pay attention to the background your
•
system will provide to the remote
participants. If the camera captures
the corridor outside your oce, people
passing by may distract your remote
participants. This applies as well to
curtains with a distinct texture pattern
and, in particular, to curtains moving due
to draught in the room.
If you are going to share content
•
some of the participants will normally
make use of duo video. That implies
the use of two video streams, one
showing the presentation and the other
showing the presenter—or the group of
presenters. Smaller systems may force
you to choose between showing the
presentation or the presenter.
For duo video some attention is needed.
•
Duo video is sometimes shown side–by–
side with half the screen showing the
presentation and the other half showing
the presenter. Provide the impression
that you seem to look towards the
presentation instead of the impression
that you sit with your back towards it,
when all is viewed on the remote monitor.
If in doubt, look straight into the camera
to avoid this situation.

About Setup
Provided that self-provisioning is
allowed in your organization, your
DX80 will automatically prompt you to
enter the usernames and passwords
needed for the appropriate accounts.
Note! This wizard will not appear for
units running in Phone Only Mode.
After you have run this wizard you will,
in most cases, be prompted to provide
a PIN code or password to restrict
access to your unit. This is described
on the following page.
If you for some reason should want
to run this wizard at a later stage, you
must perform a Factory Reset. All user
specied settings will then be erased
and you will be able to start all over
again.
Enter your Username and tap Continue.

To let your contacts and calendar get synced

Tap PIN or Password. Selecting None (if possible) will
create a vulnerable system and cannot be recommended.
About PIN and Password
The system will normally prompt you
to enter a PIN code or password to
prevent unrestricted access to your
system.
The example shown here assumes
that you opt for a PIN code rather
than a password, but the procedure
is the same in both cases, apart
from the fact that a password
typically consists of a mixture of
alphanumerical characters.
Using PIN as example, the system will prompt you to enter
a four digit PIN code.
In order to prevent an unintended lock-out of yourself, you
will now be prompted to conrm your PIN code. Enter the
PIN code, followed by tapping OK.
Tap Answer to accept the call and Decline to reject it.
