Phone Dial-in to Connect Pro Meeting
Hi Forum,
Dumb question coming up ...
I am an individual Connect Pro user with a $55 monthly subscription. Does my Connect support participant telephone dial-in? I am assuming not, although the Connect User Guide says a few interesting things, such as:
View phone conference information
If the host has specified phone conferencing information for the meeting, you will see those numbers in the center of the screen when you enter the room. Phone conference numbers are also displayed in a yellow box in the upper- right corner of the screen, which you can close if needed.
❖
To display the phone conferencing numbers for your meeting, click the yellow phone in the upper-right corner of the screen.
I never see this icon, even when I check the Include audio conference details with this meeting option in meeting setup and define a Conference Number, Moderator Code and Participant Code.
So, what are these options for?
The User Guide also states:
Phone and video conferencing
To make it easy for attendees to participate in the meeting via telephone, the host can display conference call infor- mation (such as a telephone number and participant code) to attendees as they join the meeting. Phone conference information can also be viewed at any time during the meeting.
If you have access to a teleconferencing system, you can enter and display those numbers for meeting attendees. Or, you can choose to display Acrobat Connect phone conferencing information. An Acrobat Connect phone confer- encing number and host ID is included with your account, along with a participant ID that attendees can use to hone in to your online meeting. (Regular long-distance rates apply.)
I'm assuming that this is only relevant for Connect deployments connected to a videoconferencing system. So, again, if this is the case, what are the Conference Number, Moderator Code and Participant Code fields for? Or have I misunderstood entirely?
Thanks for any enlightenment on offer,
Andy
