4 Setup
Note! Any USB devices must be setup properly on the SimView Server PC before they are accessible by
SimView. If you have trouble, please check that drivers are properly installed.
Computer name 4.1
To make it easier to access the SimView Server from other PC’s on the network, you can give the server PC
a name that is easy to remember. The PC name is setup in the windows control panel for System and
Security, under System. Change the Computer name to suit your needs.

2. Open Control Panel from the Start button
3. Select Sound
4. Select the Recording Tab
5. Select the microphone you want to use and select Properties.
6. Under the Levels Tab you can adjust the recording level, set the level at press OK.
7. Now test if the level is adequate, by looking at the bar level in the window while speaking.
You will be able to add other audio sources via the SimView setup page as well, not only the Windows
default, if you want to change set-up.
External Audio Equipment 4.3
If you are using external mixers for multiple microphones etc., the installation is very similar to the simple
one microphone setup. The external audio equipment is connected either to the microphone input or the
line input via a 3.5 mm jack. When using external single channel audio equipment, you will have to select the
correct one when setting up the audio. In the audio setup you can clone from right or left channel to suit
your setup, the cloned channel will be copied to both channels for recording and playback. SimView Server
also supports stereo recording.
