About OUR Video Conferencing System
Colts Neck Schools use the HD 100 720p Vidyo system. Guest users are users who may be invited to a meeting who are not registered with the system.
To invite users, Colts Neck teachers will simply email guests the room URL (the link to the personal room).
After opening the invitation email, guest users will:
1) follow the link
2) download the software (from the link provided)
3) enter name to be able to join the meeting.
Guest users can use any computer, iPhone/iPad, or Android to connect with our video conferencing system to join a meeting as a guest.

Troubleshooting Tips
- Run tests ahead of time.

- Hard wire to the network.
- Restart system if connection fails.
