The live images can be from virtually any source on the laptop or
desktop such as PowerPoint, Excel, a Web page or proprietary
software applications. Visual Concert FX is designed to transmit
graphics at SXGA resolution (1280 x 1024), but will auto-sync to
match the resolution of the laptop and scale to match the best
resolution at the far end. A VGA-out port on the unit allows the
flexibility of connecting a high-resolution projection system or
monitor for in-room displays.
Dual Stream Compatibility
Visual Concert FX dual stream is compatible with the Polycom
Accord MCU version 3.01 in ISDN multipoint calls. All sites are able
to see the presenter and the PC at the same time.
Limitations
If the far site cannot support dual streams, the system reverts to
sending the live computer screen as the main video stream.
Note
For more information about installing Visual Concert FX, consult
the Visual Concert FX User Guide and Visual Concert FX QuickStart.
