Camera
The built-in camera includes a high quality color camera with a fast pan/tilt/zoom action. The
camera is controlled by the system's infrared remote control and operates pan/tilt and zoom.
Codec
The codec is the heart of the system. Its main task is the compression of outgoing video, audio
and data, the transmission of this information to the far end and the decompression of the
incoming information - the name codec comes from a combination of the two words compression
and decompression.
Remote Control
The remote control is used to control all functions of the system. If the screen saver is activated
(black monitor), touching the remote control will automatically wake up the system. The remote
control uses 4 AAA batteries. The system will tell you when batteries are running low. Change the
batteries at the back of the remote control.
The reach of the remote control signal is 20 meters. For users sitting in an open plan office, this
can cause problems. Use the little, white switch placed under the batteries to change the reach of
the signal from 20 meters to 2 meters. This will prevent you from unintentionally controlling
another video system, when you control your own system.
