Manage attendees
1 When you have joined the meeting as moderator,
other people will be able to join as participants.
2 Attendees are listed in the attendee management
window. When people join the meeting you can’t see
their video. You need to allow them to share their
video.
3 Click a person’s name in the attendee management
window, then click the webcam icon at the bottom of
the window. If the person’s camera is on, their picture
will appear at the side of the web browser.
4 These icons show the attendee’s permissions - what
they can do in the video conference:
The pen lets the person draw on the Whiteboard
The lectern lets the person be a Presenter
The microphone icon turns on their voice
The webcam icon turns on their video
The person icon removes the attendee from the
video conference
Other features
Redback Conferencing has many features and tools. Some other tools you can use
during your video conference are available from the Moderator Toolbar at the top of
the screen. These tools include:
1 Whiteboard – this lets attendees with the Whiteboard
permission (see above) draw and type in the
presentation area of the conference.

2 Screen Sharing – allows one person to share the
contents of their computer screen with other
attendees. This is good when you have a diagram or
picture on your screen that you want to talk about.
3 Send Screenshot – lets you send a snapshot of the
current video conference screen to all attendees.
This is a quick way of giving everyone a copy of the
Whiteboard, for example.
