Setting Up Your Camera and Audio

Choosing a Camera

You may need to use different cameras in different environments. For example, you may use a webcam with your laptop when you work from your office, but you need to use the laptop's built-in camera when you work from home. Instead of reconfiguring your video preferences, you can choose the camera to use before the call.

For information about choosing a webcam or video device for use with Polycom Telepresence m100, refer to the Release Notes for Polycom m100 Systems, available at support.polycom.com.

For information about installing your webcam, refer to the documentation that came with your webcam.

To choose a camera for a call:

1.From the main window, click Menu > Preferences > Video.

2.Select the camera to use.
