  If you're experiencing low or no sound on your Sony Conference System, there might be a few reasons: * The system volume could be too low. Try adjusting it using the VOLUME +/– buttons on the Remote Commander. * The TV monitor volume might be too low; adjust the TV volume. * The remote party's microphone might be off.

  If your Sony Conference System Remote Commander isn't operating, it might be isolated from the communication system. Perform pairing of the Remote Commander with the Camera. If pairing fails, perform pairing of the Remote Commander with the System or Camera Unit.

  There could be several reasons for this. First, the system volume might be too low; adjust it using the VOLUME +/– buttons on the Remote Commander. The TV monitor volume could also be too low, so adjust that as well. Ensure that the microphone on the remote party is turned on. Also, check that the audio input is selected properly in the Audio setup menu, specifically “Input Select (MIC)” and “Audio Input” on the Basic Setup1 page. Finally, verify that the microphone or external equipment is correctly connected.
