1 Introducing the Polycom VisualBoard Application The Polycom VisualBoard application allows you to show and annotate content in real-time from Polycom HDX systems by using a touch screen monitor. You can use the monitor as your only content monitor or you can use it in addition to your current content monitor. You can annotate on the content using your finger, a stylus, or a mouse. The VisualBoard application is an integrated application that works with the following systems and hardware versions: Polycom HDX 7000 HD system with Hardware Version D Polycom HDX 7000 HD system with Hardware Version C Polycom HDX 8000 HD system with Hardware Version B Polycom HDX 9006 system Polycom HDX 4500 system (A mouse is recommended with an HDX 4500 system since the VisualBoard application will always appear on 1.) The VisualBoard application works with HDX software version 3.1.0 and later versions. If your system is already installed and configured, refer to the following chapter for instructions on using the VisualBoard application. If you need to install and configure your system, refer to Chapter 3 for instructions on how to install a touch monitor and how to configure the system. Polycom, Inc. 1

The far-site user sends content or starts the VisualBoard application. 2 From the Slides toolbar, use your finger, stylus, or mouse to perform the tasks listed in Table 2-3. 1 2 3 4 7 8 9 10 11 5 6 Figure 2-4 Slides Toolbar 8 Polycom, Inc.

Using the Polycom VisualBoard Application Refer to the following table for a description of the Slides toolbar elements. Table 2-3 Slides Toolbar Elements Reference Number Icon Task Notes 1 Exit the VisualBoard application 2 Save slides (to the My Whiteboard folder automatically created by the VisualBoard application) Save error icon When the application exits, you will hear a beep and see a red glow around the icon. You will hear a beep when the current slide has been saved. You will see a green glow around the Save icon when selected. The current slide will be saved after the last slide you viewed. If you annotate a slide and save your changes, a copy of the original slide is saved on the USB drive. If you want to load slides without using a USB drive, you need to create a My Whiteboard folder. You can store up to 200 folders and slides in any folder on the USB drive. When the maximum number of slides and folders is stored, the Save icon displays a red X and no other slides can be saved. 3 Delete slides Slide and folder thumbnails will display. Navigate to the slide you want to delete and touch the red X icon in the corner of the slide. The slide and all annotations will be deleted from the USB drive. If you touch outside of the red X, the slide will display and will not be deleted. Folders may not be deleted. Polycom, Inc. 9

Polycom VisualBoard Application User s Guide Reference Number Icon Task Notes Slide thumbnails Slide icon to be deleted If there are more than 20 slides or folders inside the current folder, a page number will display at the top of the thumbnails screen. A yellow highlight will appear around the active slide. Use the Previous and Next icons to navigate through the thumbnail pages. If you are using a mouse, you can also use the scroll wheel to navigate. If you are in Deletion mode, you can select a folder thumbnail to move into that folder. You can also select the icon to move up a level. All slide thumbnails display a red X in the top left corner. The folder thumbnails do not display a red X because folders cannot be deleted. A yellow highlight will appear around the active slide. 4 View thumbnails When you open the thumbnail view for the first time, you will begin in the My Whiteboard folder. You will see thumbnails that represent individual slides, a folder that contains images, or a folder that contains other folders. You can load up to 10 pages of thumbnails with 20 thumbnails on each page. Folders will be displayed first and then the slides will be displayed. Basic folder thumbnail If a folder contains nothing, you will see a basic folder thumbnail. Folder with images thumbnail If a folder contains only images, you will see the first image in that folder displayed on the folder thumbnail. 10 Polycom, Inc.

Polycom VisualBoard Application User s Guide Saving Slides Slides and annotations are automatically saved in the following situations so you never lose your work: While drawing on the whiteboard when the system is not in a call, and you receive an incoming call, the whiteboard exits and the current slide is saved automatically. While drawing on the whiteboard during a call and the far site hangs up the call, the whiteboard exits and the current slide is saved automatically. While drawing on the whiteboard during a call and you hang up the call, the whiteboard exits and the current slide is saved automatically. While drawing on a whiteboard or blackboard, and you bring up another whiteboard or blackboard, the previous whiteboard is saved automatically. Understanding Slide Order When slides are deleted or saved, slide order is maintained so there are no gaps in slide numbering. Therefore, when you save or email the slides after your class or presentation, every slide appears in order without any missing slides. The VisualBoard application will maintain the order of all slides when you add or delete slides. If you add slides during your class or presentation, they will be in the order that you presented to your audience. Using Folders Different presentations can be stored within the My Whiteboard folder. An education example is shown in Figure 2-5. Figure 2-5 VisualBoard Screen with Folders 12 Polycom, Inc.

Using the Polycom VisualBoard Application Importing Slides to PowerPoint from VisualBoard You can import slides one at a time to PowerPoint from VisualBoard on either a PC or a Mac.

Capturing and Annotating Live Content from the Far Site While in a call, you can capture and annotate live content from the far site using Multisite Collaboration. Multisite Collaboration allows every site in a call (either point-to-point or multipoint) to take control of the VisualBoard application. To capture and annotate live content from the far site: Double-tap the screen to take control of the VisualBoard application. When you are finished annotating, the far-site can double-tap their screen to take control. The slide you are working on will be saved and sent to the far-site, allowing them to make additional annotations. Each time control switches between the near-site and the far-site, the slide is saved to the USB drive. Using Captured Content You can use captured content in various ways, such as: Viewing the content later on your computer. Emailing the content to the meeting attendees. Importing the content into PowerPoint to create a presentation. Polycom, Inc. 15

Polycom VisualBoard Application User s Guide Troubleshooting If you experience problems, try the following possible solutions. Ensure that the cable connecting the touch monitor to the HDX system is securely attached at both ends. Verify that a VisualBoard application is detected. On an HDX system: Go to System > Diagnostics > UC Board. On a Polycom Touch Control: Go to System > HDX System > UC Board A screen will appear with a list of the connected devices (except for USB sticks) and will indicate if the UC Board is operating correctly.» You can have a combination of up to 16 touch devices and a mouse to use for annotation.» You can only connect one UC Board sensor and pen with 15 other touch devices.» Use active powered hubs if you are connecting several USB devices. Figure 2-7 Verifying the VisualBoard Application Restart the HDX system. 16 Polycom, Inc.
