Wie Sie den VoiceTech Communicator benützen können:	How to use the VoiceTech Communicator:
Klicken Sie auf den "Click to Talk" Knopf oben um das VoiceTech Gateway aufzurufen. Beim ersten Aufruf des Gateways auf Ihrem Computer muss das VoiceTech Communicator Applet installiert werden. Diese dauert bei DSL-Anbindung etwa 5 Sekunden, bei ISDN-Anbindung etwa 30 Sekunden, bei Modem-Anbindung noch ein wenig länger. Bitte haben Sie daher etwas Geduld. Dann werden Sie gefragt, ob Sie die Installation zulassen. Klicken Sie auf "JA"	Click on the "Click to Talk"-Botton above to access the TOPNIC VoiceTech Gateway page. At your first visit on this page you will a plug-in has to be installed. This will take about 5 seconds with DSL, 30 seconds with ISDN and more with modems. So please be patient. Once in, you may be asked to accept an item for the Communicator Applet. Click “YES” to continue.

Bei der ersten Nutzung wird noch eine kleine Grafik geöffnet, in der Sie Ihren Namen eingeben können. Man kann diesen Schritt aber auch überspringen und den Benutzernamen später eingeben.

If you are using the VoiceTech Communicator for the first time, you will see a tab box to enter your personal information after the applet is being installed. You can bypass this step and update it at a later time.

Nun wird die Seite geladen und Sie sehen die Communicator Control Box im linken Bereich. Diese Box enthält: die Namen aller im Raum befindlichen Teilnehmer den Status dieser Teilnehmer: M = Moderator P = Participant [Teilnehmer] eine Lautstärkenkontrolle für den Ton. Wenn Sie beim ersten Start keinen Namen eingegeben haben, werden Sie als "Unidentified" angeführt. Um Ihren Namen einzugeben (oder zu ändern) führen Sie folgende Schritte aus: Rechts-Klick auf die Worte "Powerd By ... " am unteren Rand des Applets. Klicken Sie auf "Preferences" In einer Box sehen Sie nun einen Reiter mit der Aufschrift "User" Geben Sie nun Ihren (neuen) Namen ein Klicken Sie dann auf "Apply" und dann auf "OK" Beenden Sie die Konferenz und steigen Sie in die Konferenz neu ein Um dieses Prozedur zu vermeiden empfehlen wir, gleich den richtigen Namen, am besten mit der Ortsangabe, einzugeben, also z.B. "Otto Mayr, Salzburg" In einem kurzen (englischsprachigen) Einführungsvideo sehen Sie diese Schritte noch einmal.   Sie benötigen Flash player 5+ um die Demo zu sehen:  Download Now Nach Installation des Plug-Ins und erfolgter Anmeldung sieht Ihr Bildschirm so aus:
