Precautions
On Safety
Power supply
•Before operating the Multimedia Terminal, make sure the operating
voltage of the unit is identical with that of your local power supply. The
Remote Commander operates on two size AA (R6) batteries.
•Do not unnaturally bend or crimp the power cord, and do not place heavy
objects on it. Damage to the cord may result in fire or electric shock.
•To remove the power cord from an AC outlet, pull out the plug. (Do not
pull out the cord itself.)
Do not disassemble the system
Do not open or disassemble the cabinets of the system. Electric shock may
result if you touch the inside of the cabinets.
Do not put foreign objects into the system
Avoid having metallic or flammable object, liquid, or foreign matters fall
into the cabinets of the system. Otherwise a malfunction may result.
On Handling
In case of trouble
In case of trouble such as smoke, odd smell, or noise, turn off all units of
the system. Disconnect all the power cords and connecting cords. Then
contact the place of purchase or an authorized Sony representative.
ISDN
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically
designed for wet locations.
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone
line has been disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical
storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
Installation/storage
Do not expose the system to:
•Extremely low or high temperatures.
•Damp or dusty room.
•Strong vibration.
•Near devices which generate strong magnetic fields.
•Near devices (such as radios) which transmit strong radio wave.
•Noisy place.
8 Precautions
Cleaning
Wipe the cabinets and panels with a dry and soft cloth. If the stain is
serious, slightly moisten the cloth with mild detergent. Afterward, use a
dry cloth to wipe it. Do not use solvents such as thinner, benzine, alcohol,
as they may damage the finish of the cabinets.

Preparation
The PCS-6000/6000P Multimedia Terminal can connect a remote party via
an ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) line
images and sound, allowing you to have virtual face-to-face meetings with
people in other cities or countries.
The system accommodates up to three participants in one location.
However, you can add the optional PCS-A300 Microphones for additional
participants.
You can hold a point to multi-point meeting among six terminals when
using the 1B-channel or 2B-channel connection at each terminal, or among
four terminals when using the 8B-channel connection at each terminal.
You can install an optional interface board for connection with V.35
interface or RS-449 interface. And if you upgrade the Multimedia
Terminal using the PCS-UC601 Upgrade Kit, you can connect a remote
party via a LAN.
In addition, you can connect up to a maximum of six terminals via a LAN,
using the unit as an MCU (Multipoint Control Unit).
1) The optional board is required for connecting with an ISDN line. Up to
three PCS-I600 BRI Boards or single PCS-I601 PRI Board can be
installed into the Multimedia Terminal. However, when installing both
the BRI Board and PRI Board, two BRI Boards and single PRI Board
can be installed at the same time.

Inserting Batteries into the Remote Commander
The supplied Remote Commander controls most of the functions. This
section describes how to insert batteries into the Remote Commander.
1 Remove the battery compartment cover.
2 Insert two size AA (R6) batteries (supplied) with correct 3 and #
polarity into the battery compartment.
Chapter 1
When inserting the
batteries, be sure to put
the negative end at first.
Caution
Be sure to place the negative # end of the battery at first. If you place
the positive 3 end at first, there is a possibility of damaging the
insulated film covering the battery and creating a short circuit.
3 Replace the cover.
Battery life
When the Remote Commander no longer functions properly, replace both
the batteries.
Notes on batteries
To avoid possible damage from battery leakage or corrosion, observe the
following:
•Be sure to insert the batteries in the correct direction.
•Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries.
•Do not attempt to charge dry-cell batteries.
•If you do not intend to use the Remote Commander for a long time,
remove the batteries.
If battery leakage occurs, clean the battery compartment and replace all
the batteries.

Hint
If you press any of the buttons from 1 through 6 on the Remote
Commander during a communication session, you can call up the value set

On backup
The memories of the preset are erased when the I/1 switch on the
Multimedia Terminal Processor is set to off. To retain those memories, set
the BACKUP switch at the rear of the Camera Unit to ON.
Notes
•In the Camera Unit, the built-in lithium battery acts as the power source
for retaining the memories and is kept charged as long as the system is
used. However, if the system is used for shorter period of time with the
BACKUP switch set to ON, the battery is gradually discharged. If you do
not use the system at all for almost 12 weeks, the battery is completely
discharged. To retain the memories of the settings, you should recharge
the battery.
•To recharge the battery, connect the Camera Unit to the Multimedia
Terminal Processor and leave it for approximate 48 hours with the I/1
switch set to on.

When you make multipoint settings, you can set up a
teleconference for a maximum of six remote locations,
including your own.
You can hold a multipoint conference using either
ISDN or a LAN, but you cannot set up one
teleconference using both technologies at the same
time.
Chapter 3
Notes
•You can hold a multipoint conference among six
terminals using ISDN.
•If you install the PCS-UC601 Upgrade Kit, you can
connect a remote party via a LAN. In addition, you
can hold a multipoint conference among six terminals
via a LAN.
•When installing the PCS-I601 PRI Board and using
the unit as the multipoint in the ISDN (PRI) interface,
only the local terminal can call a remote terminal.
The remote terminal cannot call the local terminal.

Starting a Point to Multipoint Meeting
Before you start the multipoint conference, verify that
Multipoint Mode is set to On in the Multipoint Setup
menu.
Notes
•A normal audio phone can be available in the point to
multipoint meeting.
•In point to multipoint meeting, the following
functions do not work:
– Far remote camera control
– Switching the input of the remote terminal
– Data conference
Please keep the following in mind when
setting up multipoint meeting using ISDN.
•Set up the Number of Lines in the Multipoint Setup
menu according to your meeting type. When setting
to 1B or 2B, you can hold a meeting among six
terminals and when setting to 4B, 6B, or 8B, you can
hold a meeting among four terminals. The 8Bchannel connection is only for Bonding connection.
•In the Dial Setup and Answer Setup menus, be sure
to set PCS-5000 Series Mode to Off. If it is set to On,
you cannot hold a multipoint meeting.
Keep the following in mind when holding a
multipoint meeting over a LAN
•Settings made with the Multipoint Setup menu for
LAN bandwidth, Video Mode, and Audio Mode will
have priority over the same settings made with the
Dial Setup menu, the Answer Setup menu, the More
Options menu of Manual Dial or the Phone Book
menu.
•The data transfer speed per remote party may change,
based on the number of remote parties involved in the
meeting.
•If during a multipoint meeting, a far end terminal
loses power, or a LAN cable is cut, etc., and the
audio or picture data is not received, the unit waits
approximately 90 seconds for this data. During that
time, screen image may experience some
interference, but this is not a problem with the
equipment. After 90 seconds, the terminal that
suffered the original fault will be cut, and the
remaining remote parties can continue the multipoint
meeting.
