Teleconferencing Room
Meetings room #120 on the first floor wing B, of building 12 has now teleconferencing capabilities. A Tandberg 550 system is used in the room along with a 32" LCD LG monitor model 32LP1R. The system is currently IP based and can only call or accept calls to/from other IP based teleconferencing systems. The IP of our system is 194.42.16.46 and when it is ON it is set to auto answer with the local miscrophone muted.
The operation of the teleconferencing unit is very simple and the basics can be learned in about 10 minutes by reading the File:D1338801 TANDBERG Short User Manual-english.pdf
The monitor can also be used for presentations from laptops in the place of a projector. In order to use it this way, the user has to connect the laptop to the VGA cable available on the desk where the monitor is and select the DVI/PC input from the input menu on the monitor. To use the Tandberg system the monitor input should be switched to AV3
