Slide notes
Welcome to this module introducing the RealPresence Group series of endpoints. In this module we will

user interface, how to make calls and how to use Contacts.

Slide 3 - Orientation and Installation

Slide notes
Let's take a look at something different for a minute or two. We now know in theory what the RealPresence
Group systems are able to do, but what does they actually look like? Obviously you can't see it in real life
when you're undertaking eLearning, so hopefully this short video will help.
This is a RealPresence Group 500 system. As you can see, it is very small and light, and is also very easy
to set up. The other elements required for this are a power pack, network cable, a video cable to go to the
screen, a microphone pod and microphone cable, and a camera and camera cable. There is also a new,
very simple to use, remote.
To set the system up, plug in the power, plug in the network, plug in the video (this is an HDMI cable,
which means that the video and audio can be carried down the same cable), plug the microphone cable
into the microphone port, and finally, the camera cable. And the system is ready to go.
