LCD screen
Notes on use
• Do not expose the LCD screen surface to the sun. Doing
so may damage the screen surface.
• Do not push or scratch the LCD screen, or place objects
on top of the system. The image may become uneven or
the LCD panel may be damaged.
• If the system is used in a cold place, a smear may occur
in the picture or the picture may become dark. This does
not indicate a failure. These phenomena improve as the
temperature rises.
• Ghosting may occur when still pictures are displayed
continuously. It may disappear after a few moments.
• The screen and cabinet get warm when the system is in
use. This is not a malfunction.
Display pixels
Although the LCD display panel is made with highprecision technology and has an effective picture element
ratio of over 99.99%, black dots (dead pixels) may appear
on the screen or pixels may become permanently lit (red,
blue, green, etc.) or unlit. The appearance of dead pixels
after extended periods of use is common among LCD
display panels. Be aware that such appearances do not
represent a malfunction.
Aliasing
When fine patterns, stripes, or lines are shot, they may
appear jagged or flicker.
Note on laser beams
Laser beams may damage a CMOS sensor. You are
cautioned that the surface of a CMOS sensor should not
be exposed to laser beam radiation in an environment
where a laser beam device is used.
Built-in speakers
The speakers generate magnetism. To avoid damaging
the data, keep magnetic tapes and disks away from the
speakers.
Cleaning
• Before cleaning, disconnect the power cord from the
AC outlet.
• The LCD screen surface is finished with a special
coating. To remove dust from the screen surface, wipe
gently with a soft, dry cloth.
• Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, benzene or
thinners as they may damage the surface finishes.
• When you use chemical cleaning cloth, observe the
instructions that come with it.
• Do not apply volatile solvents such as an insecticide to
the screen, or allow rubber or plastic objects to touch to
the screen for a long time, as they may damage the
surface finishes.
Phenomena specific to CMOS sensors
The following phenomena that may appear in images are
specific to CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide
Semiconductor) sensors. They do not indicate
malfunctions.
White flecks
Although the CMOS sensors are produced with highprecision technologies, fine white flecks may be
generated on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic
rays, etc.
This is related to the principle of CMOS sensors and is not
a malfunction.

About “Memory Stick”
What is “Memory Stick”?
“Memory Stick” is a compact, portable and versatile IC
(Integrated Circuit) recording medium with a data capacity
that exceeds a floppy disk. “Memory Stick” is specially
designed for exchanging and sharing digital data among
“Memory Stick” compatible products. Because it is
removable, “Memory Stick” can also be used for external
data storage.
“Memory Stick” is available in two sizes: standard size
and compact “Memory Stick Duo” size. Once attached to
a Memory Stick Duo adapter, “Memory Stick Duo” turns
to the same size as standard “Memory Stick” and thus can
be used with products compliant with standard “Memory
Stick.”
Types of “Memory Stick”
There are five types of “Memory Stick” depending on
various uses.
• “Memory Stick PRO”
The “Memory Stick PRO” is a “Memory Stick” that
allows faster data transfer rates in devices that support it.
It also incorporates MagicGate copyright protection
technology.
•“Memory Stick-R”
Data stored in this type of “Memory Stick” is not
overwritten. It can be used only with equipment
compatible with “Memory Stick-R”. Data that requires
MagicGate copyright protection technology cannot be
stored on this type.
•“Memory Stick”
Any type of data except copyright-protected data that
requires MagicGate copyright protection technology can
be stored.
• “MagicGate Memory Stick”
Equipped with the MagicGate copyright protection
technology.
•“Memory Stick-ROM”
Stores pre-recorded, read-only data. Recording or
erasing data cannot be done with this type.
• “Memory Stick” (with memory select function)
Equipped with multiple memories (128 MB). You can
select the memory to use with the memory select switch
on the back of the “Memory Stick”. You cannot use
different memories simultaneously or continuously.
Available types of “Memory Stick” for the
unit
You can use “Memory Stick PRO”, “Memory Stick”, and
“MagicGate Memory Stick” with the unit. However,
because the unit does not support the MagicGate
standards, data recorded with the unit is not subject to
MagicGate copyright protection.
Notes on “Memory Stick Duo”
• To use “Memory Stick Duo” with this unit, attach it to
the Memory Stick Duo adapter before inserting it into
the unit.
• Be sure to attach “Memory Stick Duo” to the adapter
with the correct orientation.
• Be sure to insert the Memory Stick Duo adapter with the
correct orientation. Otherwise, the unit may be damaged.
• Do not insert the Memory Stick Duo adapter without
“Memory Stick Duo” attached. Doing so may result in
malfunction of the unit.
What is MagicGate?
MagicGate is copyright protection technology that uses
encryption technology.

Data Conference Using
Dual Stream Box
This chapter shows you how to use the optional ViewPoint
8050-DSB Dual Stream Box to incorporate the screen display
data of a computer or similar into a videoconference.
The optional ViewPoint 8050-DSB Dual Stream Box is
designed for internal installation in the ViewPoint 8050. It
allows sending the pictures or text data displayed on a
computer connected to the ViewPoint 8050 to the remote
party in a videoconference. You can also connect a projector
to the Dual Stream Box and display a high-resolution
computer screen image sent by the remote party at the local
site.
Even if no Dual Stream Box is installed or if another
videoconferencing system is used, the receiving party can
view the computer images sent from the other party.
However, the quality of the picture received will vary
depending on the components of the system. If the Dual
Stream Box is installed, a higher frame rate (number of
frames per second) is possible, which allows viewing highresolution moving images from a computer. To display the
computer images sent from the other party during PC
mode, press the (Videoconference) button on the
system and switch to videoconference mode.
Chapter
and the ViewPoint 8050 should be set up to be a separate
segment.
As a result, unusable IP address is the value obtained from
the AND operation with the address of the Dual Stream
Box for communication and the network mask.
(Unusable IP address for the ViewPoint 8050) = (IP
address of the ViewPoint 8050-DSB) & (Network mask)
The IP address of the ViewPoint 8050-DSB is fixed at
“192.254.1.2”. If the Network mask is assumed to be
“255.255.0.0”, an unusable IP address is as follows:
192.254.m.n (0 ≤ m ≤ 255, 0 ≤ n ≤ 255)
Note on the camera picture when using the Dual
Stream Box
When transmitting a signal via the Dual Stream Box, the
camera picture quality will be lower owing to the
decreased number of frames.

Chapter 5 Data Conference Using Dual Stream Box
For details on picture quality depending on the system
configuration, see “Picture quality of the Dual Stream
Box” on page 79.
For details on RGB signal input/output specifications, see
the section “Acceptable RGB Input/Output Signals” on
page 111.
Note
If the position of the received computer image is off center,
switch to PC mode and switch back to videoconference
mode to correct the positioning.
Restrictions on the IP address of the system
when using the Dual Stream Box
The IP address available for the ViewPoint 8050

8050, or change its setup configuration, using a Web
browser installed on your PC, such as Internet Explorer.
The following is a set of Operating Instructions for the
Web Control Function.
Internet Explorer is a product of the Microsoft
Corporation. Please use Version 5.0, or above (Version 6.0
recommended).
