Connecting Audio Devices
Through the WebCam server, you can access live audio at a remote site and talk to the server site.
This feature is useful when the remote site requires speaking to the personnel at the server site in case
of emergency. Before using this feature, make sure all the necessary hardware are in place:
1. To record audio, make sure the connected IP camera has built-in audio function or an external
microphone connected.
2. Make sure your sound card is already inside the computer. Connect a multimedia speaker to the
audio output of your computer’s sound card. This is for receiving audio from the remote site.
3. Connect a desktop microphone to the input of the audio extension card (or cable line). This is for
sending audio to the remote site.
