Common Video Conferencing Questions
If your camera is not appearing in Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or other platforms:
- Confirm the camera has power.
- Check USB or HDMI connections.
- Restart the room computer or conferencing appliance.
- Verify the correct camera is selected in settings.
If the camera remains undetected, the control processor or USB extender may require service.
If participants cannot hear you:
- Confirm microphone is not muted.
- Check cable connections to DSP or mixer.
- Verify the correct microphone is selected in the meeting platform.
- Restart the conferencing system.
Ceiling microphones and beamforming arrays often require network connectivity.
If far-end audio is silent:
- Check amplifier or powered speaker status.
- Confirm correct audio output device is selected.
- Verify DSP routing is active.
- Reboot the room system.
Audio routing errors are common after system updates.
If you cannot join meetings:
- Confirm internet connectivity.
- Check firewall restrictions.
- Restart the conferencing appliance.
- Verify login credentials are active.
Account authentication sometimes expires and requires re-login.
If the conference room display is blank:
- Confirm input selection on the display.
- Check HDMI connections.
- Restart the room computer or appliance.
- Verify source device is powered on.
If using HDMI extenders, long cable runs may require service inspection.
Power interruptions can cause devices to boot improperly.
Recommended reboot sequence:
- Reboot modem and router first.
- Wait for full internet restoration.
- Power on network switches.
- Power on conferencing appliance.
- Power on display and DSP last.
Sequence is critical in commercial AV environments.
Echo issues may be caused by:
- Improper DSP configuration
- Microphone placement
- Speaker volume levels
- Platform echo cancellation settings
Professional calibration may be required to eliminate persistent echo.
If the conference room control panel is unresponsive:
- Confirm PoE switch power.
- Reboot the control processor.
- Check network connectivity.
Most control panels rely on network-based communication.
This is typically caused by:
- Insufficient internet bandwidth
- Network congestion
- WiFi instability
- Camera resolution settings
Hardwired connections are recommended for conferencing systems.
Schedule service if:
- Conference room systems fail repeatedly
- DSP routing errors persist
- Cameras disconnect frequently
- Control panels go offline
- Multiple rooms experience similar issues
Commercial AV systems require stable networking and professional calibration.
