relative position. Select the color temperature of the lighting in the meeting room and click Apply.
Selecting the Light Level
When adjusting the images on the display screens for the Cisco TelePresence system, you must take the
color temperature of the ambient light in the room into consideration.
Sources of light in most rooms are either incandescent light bulbs that use tungsten filaments or
fluorescent lights. Each of these light sources, and the amount of light in terms of lumens or watts,
produces a different color temperature. This color temperature is sometimes expressed using terms such
cool, warm, or daylight, but can be expressed more precisely in kelvins (K) as a numeric value.

display screens:

and color temperature of light bulbs in the meeting room, experiment with color temperature settings
until the color and images on the display screen look lifelike.
