CAUTION!
Avoid displaying the same images continuously over a long period of time on the monitors.
Displaying the same images such as still images for a long time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the following two cases:
1. After image lagging due to remaining electrical load
When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed for more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load. The after-images remaining on the screen will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the after-images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still images and the time they had been displayed.
2. After-image lagging due to sticking
When images of the same pattern are displayed continuously for several hours or displayed for a short period of time every day, after-images may remain on the screen due to the sticking of the fluorescent materials. In this case, these images may decrease if moving images are displayed after them, but basically they will not disappear.
Solving after-image lagging problems
If you have got after-image lagging on your monitors, you can reduce the problem to an acceptable level by displaying a white image on the monitors for a few hours. This can be accomplished by focusing the camera towards a white paper and setting maximum brightness. See the User Manual for details.
NOTE: Warranty may be invalidated if the precautions listed above are not followed.

1.1 At a Glance
WAVE II Camera
The Main Camera is mounted on top of the product. The Main Camera includes a high quality color camera with a fast pan/tilt/zoom action. The Main Camera is controlled by the systems infrared remote control and operates pan/tilt, focus and zoom. You can pre-store up to fifteen camera positions using Camera Presets.
14
Introduction
Monitors
The main monitor displays the far-end and near-end videoconferencing sites in addition to the menus and video from connected video sources. The second monitor displays selfview, Snapshots and Duo Video.
Codec
The Codec is the heart of the system. The main task for the Codec 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.
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
15
the signal from 20 meters to 2 meters. This will prevent you from unintentionally controlling your neighbor's video system, when you control your own system.
Table microphone
The high quality table microphone is designed to use on a table during a videoconference. You can connect up to three microphones. The ideal location for the microphone is on a flat surface at least 2m (6.5 ft) from the front of the system. The microphone cable should always point towards the system. The system will automatically equalize sound levels. Loud and soft voices are picked up and transmitted to the far end at approximately the same level.
Digital Natural Audio Module
The Digital Natural Audio Module (DNAM) is designed to enhance audio quality during a videoconference. The DNAM provides natural sounding audio - as if the person, or another sound source, in conference is present in the same room as you.
The DNAM is a frequency-compensated sound system optimized for voice and other sounds that appears in modern videoconferencing. It is designed and dedicated specifically for videoconferencing requirements. Use of the highest quality speaker elements as well as proper amplifier- and software techniques minimizes signal distortion.
The system will automatically detect the DNAM and optimize the audio output. Once detected the audio output will be in digital format (S/PDIF). The DNAM supports both analog and digital input.
The DNAM is mounted in the bottom of the system, below the speaker cabinet.

Introduction
TANDBERG Tracker
The Tracker is a small infrared remote control device made to steer the camera to any desired location within the room. Typically, several trackers would be used with each system.
Each Tracker has two buttons:
 One Single person button to point the camera at a
specific person/location.
 One Group button to point the camera at all
participants.
Beneath the battery in the Tracker, there is a switch, which can be set to 16 different positions between 0 and F. For camera preset 10 to 15, the numbers A to F should be selected.
For more information, contact your local TANDBERG representative.

2.2 Connecting Cables
1. Power cable
Connect the system power cable to the correct country variant of the power cable. Connect this cable to an electrical distribution socket.
2. Microphone cable
Connect the microphone cables to the microphones.
3. DNAM Audio Module - audio cable
Connect the RCA cable coming out of the bottom of the base to Audio out 1 on the codec.
4. Camera cable
Place the camera centrally on top of the monitor frame, in line with the front of the screen, after connecting the 2 cables as shown below. Remove the protection paper which is placed behind the front glass of the camera. The camera should be aligned with the front edge of the monitor to ensure the IR-sensor in the camera can pick up signals from the remote control.
5a. ISDN cables - using BRI interface
Connect the ISDN cables to the ISDN sockets (S/T-interface) provided by the service provider. Your main number will be the number associated with the socket to which ISDN cable number 1 is connected. (The system does not have a built-in network terminator. If your wall socket provides you with an ISDN U-interface, you will need an NT1 between your system and your ISDN line, see Appendix 9.)
5b. ISDN cable - using the PRI interface
If you are using the PRI interface, the E1/T1 cable should be connected to a CSU (Channel Service Unit). You will need a CSU between your system and the PRI line from your network provider, see Appendix 7.
5c. Other networks - using the External Network interface
If you are using other networks, please refer to chapter 4.8.1 ISDN/External/Leased E1/T1 and
Appendix 8.
