+====PolySync 40=====
 (Thanks to BK)
-When you receive the pair of PolySync 40 Speakerphones, download the associated management utility to update the Firmware.
+=====Using two 40's in a meeting=====
+Assuming you have charged them up.
-===Setting them up in tandem===
+  - Turn on both 40's (see: power button on narrow side, button on the right)
-  - Follow instructions to pair the two speakerphones
+  - Both will tell you they're powered up and the state of the battery.
-  - Then after they're paired, plug one into the USB port
+  - Press and hold for a couple of seconds the Link button {{lctg:polysync40_linkbutton.png}} on both 40's (see: link button on narrow side, button on left)
-  - Test the mic and speaker functions via Zoom preferences
+  - Hear “connection successful” and LED flashes white on both speakerphones means linking is successful.
-===Usage, based on LCC room 237===
+Now, you need to connect one of the 40's to the computer in the room that'll be connected for the audience.  Call this "Audience PC".
-  * Position one of the units near the main presenter.  This is the USB connected device.
+  * If Audience PC has Bluetooth:
+    * Put Audience PC into Bluetooth search mode
+    * Go to one of the 40's and press the Bluetooth icon on top of the unit (left side)
+    * Make sure Audience PC sees the 40 and connect to it.
+  * If Audience PC does not have Bluetooth
+    * Using the intrinsic cable on the 40, connect to USB on the Audience PC.
+The speakerphones are now set and ready to be used for both microphone and audio speaker.
+  * Tell the Audience PC to use the PolySync 40 as its speaker
+  * Start Zoom and tell Zoom to use the PolySync 40 as its microphone
+Viola, you're all set.
+====Usage in a conference room====
+  * Position one of the units near the main presenter.  This is the USB connected device or the one paired with the audience PC.
   * Put the other in the middle of the audience seating area.  This can easily be picked up and moved around to be closer to any audience speaker.
+  * Make sure that both speakerphones are aligned so that they are parallel to the front of the room and parallel to each other.
-===Tips/Tricks===
+====Tips/Tricks====
   * When moving a unit, hold it by the edges.  This way you will avoid pushing any of the buttons which might mute the mic or change the speaker volume.
-  * The one that isn't tethered (connected to USB) will be running on batteries.  Be sure to recharge it after use.
+  * A charge should last for many hours longer than any meeting.  It's wise to charge them up after a meeting.
-  * We suspect a unit will operate for about 4 hours on a full charge.
-  * When charging, the white LED strip will glow off and on; it'll stay off when fully charged.
