Showing Content
To show people and content at the same time, the RealPresence Group systems
must be configured for content. You can show the following to the far-end
systems:
• Any information stored on a computer connected directly to a Polycom
RealPresence Group system
• A paper document or object placed on a document camera
• A VCR or DVD player connected directly to a Polycom RealPresence
Group system
• The Polycom People+Content™ IP application installed on a computer,
with any Polycom RealPresence Group system
You can show one content source and one people video source at a time, and
you can switch to a different type of content or people video source if you need
to. Participants at other sites can also show content or people video sources.
Content shown is from one site at a time; another site sharing content
overrides any content being shared.
When you are showing content, a message appears on your main monitor.
Whether you also see the content on your monitor or projector depends on
how your system was configured.
Showing Content with People+Content IP
The People+Content IP application allows you to send content from a
computer that is not connected directly to the RealPresence Group system.
To install People+Content IP on a computer:
1 On a computer with a Microsoft® Windows XP, Windows Vista, or
Windows 7 operating system, open a web browser and go to
www.polycom.com/ppcip.
2 Download and install the People+Content IP software.
You can show content on a RealPresence Group 300 system by using the
People+Content IP application only.
