Welcome!
Welcome to videoconferencing with the PictureTel Concorde • 4500
ª
. The
Concorde • 4500 can help you hold meetings more productively and efÞciently
with colleagues anywhere in the world. But before you start videoconferencing,
you may want to leaf through this notebook Ñ it includes a lot of information to
help you get the most out of your videoconferencing system.
PictureTel designed this notebook for use in the same room as your
videoconferencing system. Please leave it in the room so itÕs available to anyone
who uses the Concorde
• 4500.
Is This Notebook for You?
Regardless of your level of videoconferencing experience, youÕll Þnd something
in this notebook for you.
❑
For the novice...
Even if youÕre new to videoconferencing, you donÕt have to read through this
entire notebook to have a successful videoconference. If you donÕt know how
to dial, for example, you can simply read the information under the
Making a
Call Ñ The Basics tab. Then you can spend the rest of the videoconference just
talking back and forth with the other participants Ñ you may not even need
to press another button (except for
HANG UP , of course!) if you donÕt want to.
When you get more conÞdent about videoconferencing, you might want to
read more of this notebook to learn about the other features of the system. For
example, youÕll probably want to learn how to move the cameras and mute
the microphones. If so, you can read the information under the
Adjusting the
Picture and Adjusting the Sound tabs.
❑ For the experienced user...
If youÕre already an experienced videoconferencing system user, you may not
need to read any of this notebook before using your system. If, however, you
run into a problem or you decide to try something new, you can probably Þnd
the information youÕre looking for here.
