1.1 At a Glance
Camera
The camera is an integrated part of the unit
and is centrally placed just above the
monitor.
Monitor
The Digital LCD displays the far-end and
near-end videoconferencing sites in
addition to the menu.
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.
Microphone
The microphone is integrated and located at the edge on the left hand side of the unit.
Headset / push-button
For privacy, a headset may be connected to the connector (audio in and out) located at the edge
on the left hand side of the unit. The push-button on the front panel will toggle between internal
microphone/loudspeaker and the headset.
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.

and 1+3, and finally go back to full screen view. You can also go back to full screen directly by
pressing and holding Layout for 1 second. It is recommended to use Picture outside Picture for
wide screen monitor systems.
3.2.4.3 Auto Layout
The system will automatically choose the best layout for your call. The layouts vary depending on
how many participants there are and if you use a dual video source or not. You can however
always change layout manually with the Layout button. Auto Layout applies when you open or
close a dual stream, or add or disconnect participants.
Auto Layout also includes the former automatic PIP. That implies that PIP will automatically be
shown when suitable, e.g. to display selfview when you move your near end camera. The
automatic PIP times out after a couple of seconds.
If Auto Layout is Off you will get no automatic layout changes during a call and the user must
manually control the images with the Layout button. Auto Layout is default On. To turn Auto
Layout Off, go to Screen Settings.

General Use
Streaming lets you broadcast your meeting to participants on web. The web participants can
listen to the meeting, see snapshots, but not participate themselves. Snapshots of current stream
(if MultiSite), selfview, far end and DuoVideo streams are accessible via http. See Appendix 6 for
descriptions of the possible snapshot files.
Note that on the TANDBERG 1000 MXP Streaming is only supported outside a call.

How to view streaming from a PC:
1. After streaming is started, an easy way to view the streamed audio/video is to start your
Web browser and enter the IP-address of the streaming system.
2. After the Web page of the system is shown, click on Streaming. Alternatively, enter
http://<codec ip-address>/stream.sdp

Address
Address Port
Address is defined as the IP-address of a streaming client, streaming
server or a multicast address. Giving an address in the range 224.0.0.1-
239.255.255.255 will broadcast the stream to any host that has joined
the specified multicast group. Specifying normal broadcast address
255.255.255.255 will broadcast to any members on the LAN.
If several codec’s are streaming to the same IP-address, different ports
have to be used in order for the client to know which stream to receive.
If the first codec streams on port 2240 and the second codec on port
2250, the client has to specify which port to listen to. Video is
transmitted on the specified port; audio is transmitted on the port
number 4 above the specified video port, in this case 2244 and 2254.

3.11.4 PC Soft Presenter and VNC
(Optional feature)
PC SoftPresenter is used to display PC images on your system without using a VGA cable (PC
Presenter). The system and your PC must be connected to the same LAN. In addition, VNC
(Virtual Network Computing) server software must be installed on the PC. Free software can be
downloaded from http://www.realvnc.com. Install the software by running the downloaded file.
How to configure the VNC Server software:
1. Select the following to setup VNC; Windows-Start\All Programs\Highlight
RealVNC\Hightlight VNC Server\Show User Properties
2. Select Accept Socket Connections.
3. Select Auto for Display Number. Display Number in the system must then have the value
0.
4. Enter a password in the Password-field. This must correspond with the VNC Settings on
your system.
How to show PC using the PC Soft Presenter and VNC:
1. Start the VNC software on your PC.
2. To use VNC, you must configure VNC Settings. Open VNC Settings in the Presentation
Settings menu in Administrator Settings.

3.11.5 Dual Stream (DuoVideoTF/H.239)
General Use
(Optional feature - not available on all systems)
With Dual Stream you have the opportunity to show two different live video streams
simultaneously, main video and one additional source. This is handy when showing a
presentation. You see the live presentation and the live video of the presenter simultaneously.
When you start a presentation, Dual Stream starts automatically if both local and remote system
supports Dual Stream. If one of the systems does not support Dual Stream, no second video
stream will be established and your presentation will be shown as your main video.
Dual Stream is available on all systems with Natural Presenter Package installed. H.239 is the
new ITU standard defining how to send two video sources simultaneously.
Example:
Start a meeting with main camera as video source. Press the presentation key on the remote
control to start a PC presentation.
PC will appear as a Dual Video Stream in addition to main camera. End the Dual Stream
presentation by pressing presentation key again.
In Presentation Settings, you can set Presentation Start to Manual. That means that Dual Stream
will not start automatically.
Example:
Start a meeting with main camera as video source. Press the presentation key on the remote
control to start a PC presentation.
A dialog box appears where you can choose to show PC as Dual Video Stream or not. This is
handy if you not always want to use Dual Stream.
Dual Stream and Bandwidth
Using Dual Stream, the quality will automatically downspeed to the optimal bandwidth. This
means that you need higher quality to allocate enough bandwidth for the two video streams. Dual
Stream borrows bandwidth from main video. When Dual Stream is closed, the bandwidth is
returned to the main video.
Note that when selecting the Document Camera or PC, the system will automatically request floor
when connected to a MCU conference as MultiSite host* or connected to an external MCU.
* Not available on all systems.

3.11.6 Take New Snapshot
The system can take a snapshot of your live video. Snapshot is handy when you are in a call with
a system that does not support Dual Stream. Use Snapshot to show a snapshot of your
presentation and continue the meeting with main camera.
How to use snapshot:
You find Take New Snapshot in the Presentation menu.
1. Select the Snapshot header.
2. Select Take New Snapshot and press OK to take a snapshot.
Snapshot is found on the Star key on the remote control.
1. Press Star and you take a snapshot of the current video source (current video is default
snapshot source). You can change the snapshot source in Control Panel - Administrator
Settings - Presentation Settings. Note that snapshot does not work when you are in an
input field in the menu (the star key is then used to write the star sign).
Note that Take New Snapshot is not possible when Dual Video Stream is activated and that
it is only available when you are in a call.
Note that the Snapshot feature uses H.261 Annex D and hence will not work when using
H.264 video compression
64
Page 73
3.11.7 Display Snapshot
General Use
The system stores the last sent or received Snapshot. The snapshot is deleted automatically after
the call.
How to display snapshots:
1. To view a stored snapshot, first choose the Snapshot header.
2. Select Display Snapshot in the Presentation menu.
3. Press the Display Snapshot button again to deselect it. When disconnecting the call, the
stored snapshot will be erased.
Receiving snapshots:
1. When receiving a snapshot, the snapshot is displayed in full screen.
2. Press OK to escape from the snapshot. The last sent or received snapshot will be stored
in the graphics memory and erased once the call is disconnected.
Note that Display Snapshot is only available when you have a stored snapshot.
