Installation Prerequisites

Before installing Avaya Video Camera 100, complete the following tasks:

• Select a mounting option for the camera:

- desktop mount—a movable mount for positioning the camera on a desk or table.

- display mount—a fixed mount for positioning the camera on top of a display

connected to your Avaya video communications system. The mount attaches to the display with an adhesive tape located under the base of the mount. The adhesive requires 72 hours to achieve full bond strength at room temperature. Plan your installation to allow time for the adhesive to bond securely to the display.

The adhesive tape is intended for a single use and permanent application. Avaya recommends that you determine the op tim a l ar e a for plac ing the cam er a by removing the lens cap and connecting it to the codec as descri bed in th is docume nt before attaching the mount to the display. For info rmation about techniques that you may consider for removing the adhesive tape and cleaning the adhesive residue from the display surface, contact the 3M company to obtain product documentation for 3M VHB tapes. To obtain a replacement display mount, contact your Avaya reseller.

WARNING: Use the desktop and display mounts on a horizontal surface only. Using either mount on a vertical surface or on a surface with a slope gr eater than 10 degrees may cause the camera to detach from the mount resulting in damage to the camera .

- tripod socket—a 1/4-20 UNC threaded socket for connecting the camera to a tripod. Refer to “Using the Tripod Socket” on page 9.

Note: Avaya Video Camera 100 does not include a tripod.

• If you intend to use the camera as the active microphone for audio input during calls, follow these guidelines to optimize camera placement:

- Avoid placing the camera less than .5 meters (1.64 feet) away from the front of the

speakers connected to your Avaya video communications system.

- Avoid placing devices that generate noise (such as fans or personal computers)

between video conference participants and the camera.

- The camera microphones attenuate sound directed at the back of the camera. Place

the camera in a location that ensures video conference p articip ant s speak in fr ont of the camera from a distance greater than .5 meters but less than 2.5 meters (8.2 feet).
