Quick Tips for Using Zoom
• If you are using an external camera and/or microphone, be sure to plug them in before opening
the Zoom application. We recommend using a headset if possible.
• Only 1 microphone and speaker system should be active per physical location. Otherwise, the 2
systems may cause a loud screeching sound.
• Be sure to mute yourself when you are not speaking.
• Use the Chat feature to ask questions without interrupting the speaker.
• You cannot record unless you are the meeting host, or the meeting host allows you permission
to record.
• Zoom sessions without a Zoom Pro user signed in will be limited to 45 minutes.
