2.0 THE TANDBERG MXP EDGE 95
The main components of the Tandberg MXP Edge 95 videoconferencing equipment are
the Camera, Codec, Ethernet Cable, Microphone, Screen/Monitor, Remote Control and
S-Video Cable Connector.
The Equipment at a Glance
Codec
1. Camera - The built-in camera is a high quality imaging device which transmits
images to the screen/monitor. The camera movements are controlled by a wireless
infra red (IR) remote control that controls a variety of functions, both on the near and
far end.

2. Codec - The codec is the central part of the videoconferencing equipment. The main
task of the codec is the compression of outgoing video, audio and data, the
decompression of the incoming information and the transmission of this information
between endpoints. The name codec comes from a combination of the two words
compression and decompression.

3. Ethernet cable - This type of cable is similar to the one that connects to the Local
Area Network (LAN). One end is plugged into the back of the codec and the other
end (for MBTelehealth purposes), must be plugged into the specified jack in the wall.
Once the Ethernet cable is plugged in, you will be able to connect, or be connected
to other sites.
4. S-VIDEO Cable - S-Video is short for Super-Video. Video signals are transmitted
through a cable which is divided into two separate signals: one for color
(chrominance), and the other for brightness (luminance).
Standard Ethernet Cable S-Video Cable Connector
5. Microphone - There are two types of microphones that accompany the
videoconferencing equipment. The first may be located on the equipment and the
second is the table microphone which is designed to be located on a flat surface in
front of the participant. The microphone cable should always face towards the
videoconferencing system. The system will automatically equalize sound levels so
that loud and soft voices are picked up and transmitted to the far end at
approximately the same level.

6. Screen/Monitor - The videoconferencing equipment may utilize single or dual
screen/monitor configurations. The screen/monitor displays the far end or the near
end image.
7. Remote Control - The remote control is used to place calls, adjust the volume,
navigate screens and select options. It controls all functions of the videoconferencing
equipment. When the remote control is not in use, it should be locked away; the
equipment will not function without it.

3.3 Camera Presets
Camera presets are useful when pictures from many different camera positions and
video sources have to be viewed by the far end. Presets are used to switch camera
positions without having to manually move the camera every time.
Presets can be established before or during a call.
The camera presets are available from the number keys on the remote control when in a
call or by using the preset button when not in a call.
3.3.1 Standardized Presets
MBTelehealth recommends setting the following setting the following camera presets for
each video conference event:
1. Sign - The first preset is of a sign with the sites name. This is an off screen
camera view that allows users to move about the room without being on camera
and identifies the sites that are connected. The equipment should always be set
to the sign preset before connecting to an event.
2. You (Presenter/Provider/Patient) – This preset is a close up view of the person or
persons involved in the event. Whether it is the patient, provider or a presenter,
when setting this preset, you want to ensure that the far sites are able see the
person clearly.
3. Room –Part of video conference etiquette includes making the sites you are
connected to aware of everyone involved in the event. By setting a preset of the
entire room, you can easily identify everyone in attendance and then switch back
to preset number 2 as necessary. This preset is also helpful for question and
answer periods.
4. Video Source (PC/Patient Camera/Document Camera) – Video Sources can be
set as presets or accessed used the video source buttons on the remote control.
Setting these presets provides consistency for users and service desk staff for all
telehealth equipment.
