Instructions for Setting up Headsets for Elluminate
•
Plug the headset USB end into a USB port on the PC. The USB port may by located on the front or the back of the PC.
•
On Windows XP PC systems, after plugging in the headset, Windows will automatically find and install the required software.
•
Enter an Elluminate Live! room, select Tools – Audio – Audio Setup Wizard. The Wizard will walk you through the steps to configure your headset.
Select Audio Output Device Select the USB headset, in this case the “Microsoft Live Chat LX – 3000” is being recommend for use by WWCC. A Logitech headset may also be suitable for use with Elluminate. Press OK to continue. TIP: If the Elluminate audio is required to be heard over the PC’s external speakers, so a very small group can listen on one PC, select the non USB device, in this case the Sigma Tel Audio.
TIP: There are different ways to configure the audio settings in Elluminate. We are recommending in this guide to use the Wizard. If you wish to change the audio setting, or use a different Headset please use the Wizard.
Speaker Setup Follow the instructions to configure the volume of the incoming audio to the headset.
Select Audio Input Device After configuring the audio level to the headset, next the Wizard asks you to select a microphone to use. Again select the USB headset that has been installed, in this case the “Microsoft Live Chat LX – 3000” is being recommend. Press OK to continue.
Microphone Setup Follow the on screen instructions to configure the microphone. TIP: If the Wizard does not detect your voice, check to see if the microphone is muted. If the red light on the headset is on, the microphone is on mute.
Microphone Setup Confirmation Select Yes if satisfied with recording. If not, select NO and configure the microphone again.
Setup Complete The headset setup for Elluminate is now complete. When you click OK all the settings will be stored for future sessions as long as you leave the headset plugged in.
Note: If PC audio is required to be passed to PC speakers or headphones for non Elluminate applications, remove the USB Headset from the USB port. If the headset is left connected all PC audio will go to the headset and not the speakers. Plug the headset back in again when needed for another Elluminate session then use the Audio Setup Wizard to make sure the headset is configured properly.
