Installation
Tips
1.
During
the installation of hotComm, your firewall may ask if hotComm should be
given certain permissions. Be
sure to say YES to everything asked and that these permissions should
ALWAYS be granted.
2.
If
you run into any problems at any time during the installation, you may
re-start the installation from the beginning.
Don’t worry, this will not hurt anything and there is no need to
remove the previous installation.
3.
After
you type “open” or “run” to start the installation process, you
should minimize your Web browser to ensure you’ll see all the
installation prompts.
Usage Tips
Problems Hearing or Seeing
If you have problems
hearing or seeing during a session, the first thing to try is to exit
hotComm CL completely and log back into the room.
To exit the program, locate the hotComm CL icon in the systray as
shown below:
Now right-click on that icon and you’ll see the
following menu:
Choose Exit and wait for the icon to disappear.
Then double-click on the connection icon, enter your password, and
you’ll be back in the room.
