Technical Instructions for Connecting to the Broadcast


You need to follow these steps a few days before the broadcast. Do not wait until the last minute to check your technical readiness.

You will need to download and install the latest released version of RealPlayer on the computer you will be using to connect to the quarterly meetings. (The free version of the RealPlayer is located in the lower left corner of the RealPlayer web page.)

Your computer must connect to and successfully pass the preflight.

The archive only requires that you have a G2 version of RealPlayer.

Set your display monitor settings at 1024 by 768 to view both the presentation and the Message Center. If you have 800 by 600 display settings you may need to scroll up and down to see each slide entirely during the broadcast.

The computer you are using to view the broadcast should have at least 64 MB RAM. If you have less you may experience a slowing down of performance.

Connect to the broadcast 30 minutes before the scheduled broadcast time to allow our computer to connect in time for the broadcast to begin. It could take 10 to 20 minutes to connect depending on the speed of your connection and your computer. In order for the speaker to be able to change the slides that you see in real time, the content is downloaded to your computer during this connection phase.
