Digital User Manuals
TANDBERG is pleased to announce that it has replaced the printed versions of its User Manuals with a digital CD version. Instead of a range of different user manuals, there is now one CD which can be used with all TANDBERG products, in a variety of languages. The environmental benefits of this are significant. The CDs are recyclable and the savings on paper are huge. A simple web-based search feature helps users directly access the information they need. In addition, the TANDBERG video systems now have an intuitive on-screen help function, which provides a range of useful features and tips. The content of the CD can still be printed locally if the need arises.

1.1 At a Glance

6
1 Introduction
The remote control uses 4 AAA batteries. The system will tell you when batteries are running low. Change batteries from the backside 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 your neighbor's video system, when you control your own system.
Microphone
The microphone is integrated in the rubber foot supporting the front of the codec. This is an ideal location for the high quality voice pickup needed during a videoconference. Sound reaches the microphone through a small hole in the rubber. Care should be taken not to cover up the hole, as this may lead to deterioration of sound quality. Any liquid spilled should be cleaned up immediately to avoid damage to the microphone.

3.2.3 Layout

The Layout button has two behaviors depending on the Picture Layout setting in Administrator Settings (see chapter 4.1.8 Screen Settings). It can provide either a Picture in Picture or a Picture outside Picture.
3.2.3.1 Picture in Picture
With Picture in Picture (PIP), Layout makes it possible to see an extra picture in a smaller view. Pressing Layout will bring up a picture in picture in the corner of the screen. Press Layout again to move it to the other corners of the screen and finally hide it. You can also hide it directly by pressing and holding Layout for 1 second. Picture in picture will always appear on the main monitor. Automatic PIP is the system's default setting. That means that you will automatically show Picture in Picture when it is suitable (see chapter 4.3 Presentation
Settings).
How to use Layout with Picture in Picture:
1. Press Layout once to bring up a picture in picture.
2. Press Layout three more times to move it around in the corners of the screen.
3. The fourth time you press Layout, it will disappear.
4. Pressing and holding Layout for 1 second will hide the small picture directly from any position.
Example of PIP
3.2.3.2 Picture outside Picture
With Picture outside Picture (POP), pressing Layout will bring up compositions of the pictures that are optimized for wide screens. Press once to get an extra picture in a smaller view. Press twice to get side-by-side view. Press again to 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.
How to use Layout (Picture outside Picture):
1. Press Layout once to get the 1+3 layout. You see a big far end picture and a smaller picture of yourself in the upper right corner. If you use Duo Video, you see a big picture of the Duo Video and small pictures of the far end and yourself.
2. Press Layout again to get the side-by-side layout (1+1). You see two equally big images of the far end and yourself.
3. The third time you press Layout you go back to normal full screen view.
4. Pressing and holding Layout for 1 second will bring you back to full screen anytime.
20
3 General Use
Note that if both TV monitor format and VGA format (in Administrator Settings\General\Screen Settings) is set to Normal, the system will skip the 1+3 layout, which is not beneficial for 4:3 monitors.
Example of POP
21
TANDBERG 1500 MXP

3.2.5 Volume + and -

Press the Volume key to adjust the volume level. An on-screen indicator will show the current level.

3.2.6 Number and Letter keys

Pressing a number key when you are outside a call will take you to the call menu. When you are in a call, the number keys are used for Camera Presets. Press a number and you go to the corresponding Camera Preset (see chapter 3.10.3 Camera Presets). However, when you are in an input field where numbers are required, the system automatically goes to number mode and you can dial numbers with the number keys as usual.

28
3 General Use
Call Type
Network
Bandwidth
Restrict (56k)
Use Set as Default
Call Type can be set to Video Call (default) or Telephone Call. Using Video, the system will try to connect as a video call. Some network configurations will cause the fallback to a telephone call to fail. In these cases, you should set the call type to telephone and the call will be placed as a telephone type only. For MultiSite calls, Call Type enables you to specify both telephone calls and video calls in the same conference.
The Network alternatives are: Auto, ISDN and H.323 (LAN). The system will, by default, try to connect using Auto Network. That means that the system will automatically use the right network depending on the number you have dialed.
If Auto is selected, the system will select a network based upon the following criteria:
 If an IP-address (e.g. 10.12.34.56 ) is entered, H.323 (LAN) is
selected.
 If the first digits in the number match those set in H.323 Prefix
under H.323 Settings, LAN is selected.
 In other cases, ISDN (H.320) is selected.
If you need to ensure that you make an H.323 or ISDN call, specify this by choosing H.323 or ISDN. ISDN indicates ISDN-BRI, ISDN-PRI, Leased E1/T1 and External Networks. If a gatekeeper is present, you may place IP-calls using “telephone-style” numbers (an E.164 alias), according to the numbering plan implemented in the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper will then translate the dialed number into an IP-address (see chapter 4.8.2.2 H.323
Settings for more information about gatekeepers).
Bandwidth decides the quality of the video picture. The system will, by default, connect using Auto Bandwidth. This means that the system will establish a connection using a proper bandwidth for your call.
The typical bandwidths used for ISDN and IP calls are 384kbps and 768kbps respectively. When bandwidth is set to auto, the unit will default to 384kbps for ISDN calls and 768kbps for IP calls.
A restricted call is a call that uses 56kbps channels rather then the default unrestricted 64kbps channels. Some older networks (primarily in the USA) do not support 64kbps channels and require the use of restricted 56kbps calls. By default the system will dial an unrestricted call and downspeed to 56kbps if necessary. To force a restricted call, choose Restrict (56k) On. An indicator “(56k)” will be shown beside the number.
If you want to change the default Call Settings, make the desired changes to the Call Settings and Press Set as Default. Press OK to Save. These settings will now be the default settings for all future manually dialed calls.

TANDBERG 1500 MXP
Type of calls* Auto: 384 kbps on ISDN/768 kbps on LAN
Max: 512 kbps on ISDN-BRI 2Mbps (1920 kbps, IP only)

*Some software versions and networks do not support all channel selections.
H.221 or 2x64 (2x56) Calling Some older or low end video systems do not have the ability to make bonded ISDN calls. In
these cases you may have to dial both ISDN numbers separately to call those systems. These types of calls are often referred to as H.221 calls, 2x64 calls, or 2x56 calls, as you are making 2 x 64 kbps or 2 x 56 kbps calls to the same system. To place this type of call, set bandwidth to 128 kbps and Network to ISDN. A field for 2nd number pops up in Call Settings. Enter the first number in the call menu and the second number in the Call Settings field. For 128 kbps calls that use bonding, ignore the second number field and just enter one number to be dialed.
Using sub-address / extension address / MCU password Sub-address is used to address different systems on the same ISDN line and is primarily used in European Countries. TCS-4 is used to address different systems on a LAN, when dialing in via a gateway.
To specify an ISDN sub-address or its LAN equivalent extension address (TCS-4), add a star (*) after the number and then enter the sub-address/extension address.
Example: 12345678*10 ( <number>*<Sub-address/extension address/MCU password>)
When calling to external MCU’s requiring a password (TSC-1), this password can be added after the star (*). If no password is specified, a menu will prompt you to enter the password (after connecting to the MCU).

3.12.9 More about MultiSite (embedded MCU)

(Optional Feature)
Calling in to a MultiSite
Any system can be part of a MultiSite conference by calling in to a MultiSite. The dial-in numbers to the MultiSite depends of the network that is used.
To dial in to the MultiSite on IP:
 Dial the IP Number or the IP Address of the system. All sites can dial the same
number.
To dial in to the MultiSite on ISDN-PRI:
 Dial the ISDN number of the system. All sites can dial the same number.
To dial in to the MultiSite on ISDN-BRI:
 The MultiSite has specific numbers for each call that participates in the conference.
To find the dial-in numbers for the MultiSite, choose Information from the main menu and open System Information from the bottom menu line.
 Site 2 must dial MultiSite Number 2.  Site 3 must dial MultiSite Number 3.  Site 4 must dial MultiSite Number 4.  And so forth
Receiving calls to a MultiSite
When the MultiSite receives incoming calls you can accept or reject it. Pressing the green key is equivalent to pressing Accept. Pressing the red key is equivalent to pressing Reject.
End a MultiSite Call
Ending a MultiSite Call is not very different from ending a normal point-to-point call. Use the red key on the remote control or End Call from the main menu. The end call menu lists all the calls that participate in the conference. To end a single call, select the call, press OK or the red key on the remote control. To end all calls, press the End All Calls button in the menu.
Duo Video in MultiSite calls
In a MultiSite call, the MultiSite can transmit the Duo Video and/or H.329 to the other participants that support Duo Video and/or H.329. This means that any participant can send Duo Video and the MultiSite will transmit it to the other participants. The participants that do not support Duo Video or H.329 will only receive Main Video.
Mix ISDN/LAN A conference can consist of any combination of ISDN/IP sites.

3.13.2 Streaming

3 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 7 for descriptions of the possible snapshot files.
How to use Streaming:
1. Choose Streaming from the Control Panel to open the Streaming menu.
2. Press Start Streaming from the menu line.
3. Press Stop Streaming to end streaming. Streaming will also end when you disconnect the call.
4. Press Streaming Settings if you want to change streaming settings (see Streaming Settings below)
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
Streaming Settings
Address
Address Port
TTL/Router Hops
Streaming Source
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.
This is used for streaming data to limit how many routers the data should pass before it is rejected. If TTL is set to 2, data will not traverse more than 2 router hops.
 Auto: Enables streaming of both local and far end video.
Selection of which site to be streamed is done using voice switching (the site that speaks is streamed).
 Local: Only the local video will be streamed.

Video Rate
Streaming Password
Defines the Video streaming rate from the system. Range is 16 kbps
- 320 kbps. In addition, audio (G.711) streaming rate is 64 kbps, providing a maximum streaming rate of 384 kbps.
Set password so that only participants entering correct password will be able to view the streaming session. Entering a password will prevent unauthorized people from accessing the streaming session.
 Remote: Only the far end video will be streamed.
 On: Streaming can be started from external user interfaces
like the Web-browser or Telnet session.
 Off: Streaming can only be started from the Video
Conferencing System using the remote control, or by using the Data port. This will prevent activation of streaming using Web browser or Telnet sessions. See also Password section below
 On: The codec will announce to the network that it is
streaming. This enables a streaming client (e.g. a PC) to connect to the codec’s streaming session. Used by Cisco IP/TV.
 Off: No announcement packets will be transmitted.

3.13.3 Far End Control

It is possible to get some control of the far end system. This means that you can control your conference partner’s camera, video sources and presets. You can also request a snapshot from the far end side. Enabling Far End Control in the Control Panel will put the system in Far End mode and camera control, camera preset, presentation, and snapshot will work on the far end camera.
Far End Control only works when you are in call and if the far end side supports H.281 (Far End Camera Control). You can prevent others from controlling your system by setting Allow Far End Camera Control to Off in Control Panel\Administrator Setting\General\Permissions (chapter 4.1.7 Permissions).
How to use Far End control:
1. Open the Control Panel.
2. Enable Far End Control by selecting the Far End button in the Control Panel. A green circle indicates that the Far End button is activated.
3. Now you are in Far End mode and can use camera control, camera preset, presentation and snapshot for the far end.
4. To turn Far End control off, go to the control panel again and press Far End again. The green circle disappears.
54

3.13.5 Camera Tracking

(not for TANDBERG 1500 MXP) Through Camera Tracking and the use of two or three microphones, the camera can
automatically position itself on the current speaker. Before using camera tracking, the camera positions used must be stored at Preset 7 (Mic1) and/or Preset 8 (Mic2).
How to use Camera Tracking:
1. Open the Control Panel.
2. Enable Camera Tracking by choosing Camera Tracking in the Control Panel. An indicator will appear as you enable Camera Tracking.
3. End Camera tracking by deselecting the button. Camera Tracking will also end if you activate a Camera Preset or move the camera manually with the arrow keys.
55
TANDBERG 1500 MXP
Example: You have placed Microphone 1 on the table. Where should you position the camera for Preset 7?
The camera position stored at Preset 7 must be related to Microphone 1. Therefore all participants who are located closest to Mic1 should be included in the Preset 7 camera position etc. When camera tracking is activated and a person close to Mic1 speaks, Preset 7 will be automatically selected.
When activating another video source (for instance document camera), camera tracking will be temporarily disabled until you re-select Main Camera or a Main Camera Preset.
The camera tracking speeds may be altered in the Video Settings menu in Administrator Settings, see chapter 4.6.1 Camera Tracking Mode for further details.
A Voice Detector makes the system more tolerant of noise and ensures the camera not to be moved by noise such as paper shuffling, etc.
Note that pressing Mic Off will temporarily disable camera tracking until you turn on the microphone again.

4.5 Audio

4 Administrator Settings
Audio contains the settings:
 Inputs  Outputs  Echo Control  Stereo Settings  Audio Levelling (AGC)  Alert Tones and Volume

4.5.1 Inputs

Mic and Audio input L-R (VCR Left/Right)
By default, all inputs are enabled. Just plug in an audio source and it is active. Audio inputs that are On will automatically be mixed. Unconnected inputs will automatically be muted. Select Off to prevent audio/noise from connected but unused inputs. Audio inputs L-R (VCR Left/Right) are intended for connection to a VCR, DVD player or PC audio output. They can also be connected to other external playback devices. As there is no acoustic echo canceller on these inputs they should not be connected to any microphones. The audio entering these inputs will be heard from the local speaker as well.
VCR Ducking
If VCR Ducking is activated, the VCR audio level will be attenuated if someone talks into the microphone or at the far end.
Level Settings
It is possible to adjust the audio input levels according to which audio equipment that is connected. The on-screen audio level indicator will make it easier to set the correct input level settings. The input level should be adjusted so that the average level reaches the preferred level marker. The audio inputs are adjustable in steps of +1.5 dB from 0 dB to +22.5 dB.
79
TANDBERG 1500 MXP
The default level for the microphone is set to +3 dB. Audio inputs VCR Left/Right are set to a default level which is adhered to by most
manufacturers of audio-visual equipment and is a level at which most audio-visual equipment (CD-players, VCRs or DVDs) will work.

4.5.2 Outputs

(not for TANDBERG 1500 MXP and 2000 MXP, software version F1)
Audio Out
Audio out is internally connected to the monitor loudspeakers. The signal is a mix of audio from far end and local end Audio in (VCR Left/Right). If an output is Off, no audio will be sent to that output.
Level Settings
Adjust the audio output level to the loudspeakers. The volume keys on the remote control also adjust the level of the audio output.

4.5.3 Echo Control

Microphone
The microphone input has an acoustic echo canceller. In addition to echo cancellation, the system has built-in noise reduction (NR). NR reduces constant background noise (e.g. noise from air-conditioning systems, cooling fans etc.). In addition, a high pass filter (Humfilter) reduces very low frequency noise.
On:
Off:
On+NR:
Note that it is your echo canceller that improves the audio quality experienced by the other site. When you hear an echo of your own audio it is most likely the far end’s echo canceller that is malfunctioning.
Echo control is normally set to On to prevent the far end from hearing their own audio. Once selected, echo cancellation is active at all times. The echo canceller continuously adjusts itself to the audio characteristics of the room and compensates for any changes it detects in the audio environment. If the changes in the audio conditions are very significant the echo canceller may take a second or two to re-adjust.
Turns off the echo canceller.
Activates both Echo Control and Noise Reduction.
80
4 Administrator Settings
Tips for improving the echo canceller performance:
 It is recommended to place the microphone between 1 and 2 meters away from the
persons speaking.
 Place the microphone as far as possible from noise sources.  Reduce the volume setting. Ensure that the loudspeakers do not distort the audio.  The echo canceller tries to estimate the echo path from the speaker system to the
microphones. Moving objects change this path, therefore try to avoid moving objects. Be especially aware of large objects and objects placed close to either the microphone or the speaker system as these objects will cause severe changes to the echo path.
 Avoid putting paper sheets etc. on the microphone.  Avoid moving the microphone or loudspeaker.  In the presence of low frequency noise, enable the noise reduction (NR).

4.5.4 Stereo Settings

(not for TANDBERG 1500 MXP and 2000 MXP, software version F1)
Stereo Input mode (stereo audio)
If Stereo Input mode is on, Audio in L/R (VCR Left/Right) will behave as a stereo input pair. The VCR Ducking and AGC setting for Audio in R will in this case apply to both Audio in L and R.
Audio out to the left loudspeaker will be a mix of Audio in L (VCR Left), the microphones and the far end signal (left or mono), and Audio out to the right loudspeaker will be a mix of Audio in R (VCR Right), the microphones and the far end signal (right or mono).
If Stereo Input Mode is off, Audio out to both loudspeakers will be a mix of Audio in L and R, the microphones and the far end (mono or left+right).

4.5.5 Audio Levelling (AGC)

On
Off
Note that to ensure correct behaviour of the AGC, it is crucial that the levels on the input connectors are adjusted correctly using the audio input level settings. The AGC will not compensate for severe maladjustment of input levels. When applying a weak signal in the presence of strong background noise, the AGC might amplify the background noise as well as the signal. Therefore, in noisy environments, it is advisable to turn the AGC off.
Select On to allow automatic adjustments (Automatic Gain Control) of audio levels. When On, the AGC maintains the audio signal level at a fixed value by attenuating strong signals and amplifying weak signals. Very weak signals, i.e. noise alone, will not be amplified.
Audio levelling is not activated.
81
TANDBERG 1500 MXP
Example:
In most conferences, the participants will speak at different levels, and be at different distances from the microphones. As a result, some of the participants would be harder to hear than others. The AGC corrects this problem by automatically increasing the microphone levels when “quiet” or “distant” people speak, and by decreasing the microphone levels when “louder” people speak.

4.5.6 Alert Tones and Volume

Video Call Alert Tone and Telephone Alert Tone
To help distinguish between incoming video calls and ordinary telephone calls, it is recommended to use different ringing tones for video calls and telephone calls.
Alert Volume
You may change the volume level for the selected ringing tone.
Alert Speaker
The system also has an internal, call-alerting speaker.

SNMP Settings
SNMP Trap Host identifies the IP-address of the SNMP manager. SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used for monitoring and configuring of different entities in a network. The system's SNMP Agent responds to requests from SNMP Managers (a PC program etc.). SNMP traps are generated by the agent to inform the manager about important events.
Traps can be sent to multiple SNMP Trap Hosts. Enter the IP address of up to three SNMP managers. All traps will then be sent to the hosts listed. SNMP Community names are used to authenticate SNMP requests. SNMP requests must have a ‘password’ in order to receive a response from the SNMP agent in the codec. Note that the SNMP Community name is case sensitive. The default password is "public".
