VIDEO TELECONFERENCING INSTRUCTIONS
MBA Conference Room (Friedman Center, 2nd Floor)
Harborside Campus (Providence)
Video TeleConferencing (VTC) is an exciting way to conduct virtual meetings from
conference rooms across JWU’s four campuses. Utilizing video cameras, microphones and
other audiovisual equipment, VTC allows meeting participants to interact with each other on
screen, without losing body language or facial cues. Content such as PowerPoint
presentations and videos can be easily shared through the system as well. There is no cost
to use VTC.
How can I reserve a VTC space for my meeting?
Meeting room coordinators assist with room reservations and support. Reach out to your
desired space’s meeting room coordinator below to make a reservation. Ensure that they
are aware that you plan to make use of the VTC equipment and they will arrange for IT
support.

Troubleshooting Guide
1) Issue: AV system is turned on with VTC being the source, but screen remains blank.

2) Issue: PowerPoint presentation is too small.
Cause: View setting isn’t optimal.
Solution: Choose a new view setting by pressing the layout control button (
).
3) Issue: Audio sounds garbled/video is pixelated/system is “acting weird.”
Cause: Fluctuations in network performance may have compromised call quality.
Solution: Hang up the call and redial. The PIN is 1914#.
Note: This can be done almost instantly by
pressing
, followed by
twice.
4) Issue: No video can be seen from mobile device (plugged in at podium or table).
Cause: Adapter incompatibility or display setting incorrectly set.
Solution: Try attaching the adapter to the cable first, waiting a few seconds, then
plugging into mobile device. Check display settings of device.
5) Issue: System doesn’t respond to any button presses/hanging up and redialing
doesn’t correct an issue.
Cause: Undetermined.
Solution: Enter a ticket for IT by calling the IT Service Desk at 866-JWU-HELP
(866-598-4357) or emailing [email protected] with a description of the location and
problem.
6) Issue: A distracting echo can be heard when speaking.

the remote site redial (especially when they do not experience an echo). If issue still
persists, enter a ticket for IT by calling the IT Service Desk at 866-JWU-HELP.
