Customizing Your Workspace

You can customize what you see on the screen, depending on how your system is configured.

Allowing the Far-End System to Control Your Camera

If your system administrator has allowed access to user settings, you can allow the far-end system to control your camera. Far-end participants can also set and use presets for your camera, if their systems support presets.

To allow the far end to control your camera:

1From the Home screen, select > Camera.

2Select Far Control of Near Camera.

Changing this setting takes effect immediately, even if a call is in progress.

Adjusting for Room Lighting

If your system administrator has allowed access to user settings, you can use the backlight control to adjust the brightness of the video that the main camera sends to the RealPresence Group system. Adjusting this setting can be helpful when the room arrangement results in strong light coming from behind the people in the picture.

Because backlight controls adjust the main camera, these controls do not make content from a computer or a document camera appear brighter.

To turn backlight compensation on:

1From the Home screen, select > Camera.

2Select Backlight Compensation.
