Other Warnings and Safety Precautions

For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, follow these instructions.
Move the cabinet with care. Quick stops, excessive force and uneven surfaces can overturn
the cabinet.
When you transport the Director, only ship the cabinet in the upright position and never lay the
interactive whiteboard face down. In addition, ensure that the projector is secure by tightening the projector adjustment knob, locking bolt and two shipping straps.
If you transport the Director over a distance, we strongly urge you to completely repackage it
using the original packaging. This packaging for the Director was designed with optimal shock and vibration protection. If the original packaging is no longer available, pack all components with as much padding as reasonably possible to ensure that they are not exposed to excessive vibration or shock.
If cabinet assembly is required, we strongly recommend that at least two people perform this
task.
Do not touch the rear surface of the interactive whiteboard or apply isopropyl alcohol, water or
acetone. If any of these fluids come into contact with this surface, the diffusion coating on the rear of the interactive whiteboard will be damaged, resulting in a permanent deterioration in display quality.
TANDBERG Director Videoconferencing System
If you inadvertently smudge the rear surface of the interactive whiteboard, wipe it carefully
with a soft cloth and alcohol-free glass cleaner. Do not spray the glass cleaner directly onto the surface; spray it lightly on the cloth, and then gently dab the rear surface of the interactive whiteboard until the marks are removed.
The 3000i uses digital cameras that are located inside the bezel. If you allow excess glass
cleaner to flow into the crack between the bezel and the writing surface, these cameras could be damaged.
Avoid setting up and using the Director in an area with excessive levels of dust, humidity and
cigarette smoke.
Lock the casters after you set up the cabinet, so it remains stationary while in use.
Avoid exposing the Director to extreme heat or cold. The operating temperature range is from
41 °F to 85 °F (5 °C to 29 °C) with up to 80% humidity (non-condensing). The shipping and storage range is from -4 °F to 95 °F (-20 °C to 35 °C) with up to 80% humidity (non-condensing).
Unplug the cabinet during electrical storms or if you won’t use it for an extended period of
time.
This product is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug. This plug will only fit into a
grounding-type power outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, have your electrician replace the obsolete outlet. Do not circumvent the safety features of the grounding­type plug.
Handle the power cord carefully and avoid excessive bending. Route the power cord so its
unlikely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against it. Do not modify the power cord.
The socket outlet shall be installed near to the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
Never do any installation of cables without first unplugging the Director’s power cord.
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
Never touch uninstalled 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 electrical shock from lightning.
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
1TR6 network type is not approved for connection directly to the telecommunications network.
This network type is only to be used behind a PABX.
X.21 network type is not approved for connection directly to the telecommunications network.
This network type is only to be used together with already approved equipment, and is not meant for direct connections to the telecommunication networks.
V.35/RS-449/RS-366 network type is not approved for connection directly to the
telecommunications network. This network type is only to be used together with already approved equipment, and is not intended for direct connection to the telecommunication networks.
Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not block any of the
ventilation openings of the apparatus.

Introduction TANDBERG Director Videoconferencing System

System Overview

The TANDBERG Director system is comprised of the following, as well as optional components that can and will enhance your videoconferencing experience.

Control Interface

Director Application Module (DAM)
The Director Application Module is an integrated control, presentation, and videoconferencing system. Using a TANDBERG 6000 codec, coupled with a video-scaling control system, allows effective local presentations as well as videoconferencing. The module has an easy access rear I/ O panel that allows for connections to various A/V and control devices. The XGA resolution output can be displayed on projectors, plasmas, or monitors. The 5U high, rack mountable package allows for easy integration into classrooms, boardrooms, or podiums.
Interactive SMART Board
The Director can be used with the SMART BoardTM 3000i as the touch input device. This allows the user to conduct a local presentation or videoconference by selecting intuitive controls displayed on the board. Using the SMART BoardTM also allows for on-screen annotation and collaboration with another site, as well as transmitting the session to a remote site in real-time. Refer the REAR PROJECTION SMART BoardTM 3000i INSTALLATION GUIDE for more detailed description of features.
Touch Panel Control*
An optional 12” or 15” touch panel can be incorporated enabling a user to manage the presentation from a podium or desktop. In some cases, this touch panel can be used as the only control source or in conjunction with the controls on the interactive SMART BoardTM. See APPENDIX 7: 12” TOUCH PANEL INTERFACE.

Audio and Video Sources

Main Camera and AUX Camera**
The Director is capable of handling two controllable s-video sources. A TANDBERG W.A.V.E II Camera, included with your system, or other VISCA controllable camera can be configured for use.
At present, if you intend to connect two cameras, they must be identical - you cannot have one WAVE II camera and one Sony camera. They must both be WAVE II cameras or both be a VISCA controllable camera of the same make and model.
TM
AudioScience Microphone**
The AudioScience Microphone is an overhead, transparent microphone that eliminates the need for multiple tabletop microphones. Mounted on the ceiling, the microphone effectively picks up participants within a wide range with very little distortion. Using the Automatic Gain Control (AGC) on the codec maintains the audio signal level at a fixed value by attenuating strong signals and amplifying weak signals.
* - OPTIONAL F EATURE.
** - OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT AVAILABLE THROUGH TANDBERG OR IS USER SUPPLIED.
10
Document Camera**
A composite video source is available for a document camera. Document cameras can be used to show a wide variety of media, such as whitepapers, film negatives, or standard overhead projector transparencies. Source selection, zoom, focus and lighting can all be controlled from the button panel of the document camera.
VCR/DVD player**
Standard composite video VCR’s or DVD players can be added for playback and recording. Using codec features such as audio “ducking” (lowering the VCR output while the presenter is talking) allows seamless presentations and participant interaction. Use the front panel controls or the supplied remote control specific to these devices.
Auxiliary Sources**
Any auxiliary source can be substituted for the sources above.
There are a total of 2 s-video and 2 composite inputs available on the system.

Optional Equipment**

IntroductionTANDBERG Director Videoconferencing System
Additional Monitors
An additional monitor can be added for viewing the far or local video. Typically used to view the far side in a teaching environment, the monitor will also show the local image when giving a local presentation.
PC and Laptop Computer
A user supplied PC and/or laptop can be connected to the system to enhance presentation.
You may choose to connect a PC placed inside the 3000i cabinet and use it as a source for presentation. If you intend to use a PC as a presentation source only, then the PC must be, at minimum, able to support VGA.
You may choose to connect a laptop computer to the 3000i as a source for presentation. This can be done in conjunction with, or independently from, the PC that is integrated to the Director system.
Refer to the REAR PROJECTION SMART BOARDTM 3000I INSTALLATION GUIDE for information on connecting the PC and laptop as well as SMART software installation and configuration.

Connect each ISDN cable to the ISDN BRI sockets found on the codec. Then connect the other end of the loom to the appropriate wall sockets. If however, the wall sockets provide an ISDN U­interface, the ISDN lines from the codec must first be connected to the S/T interface of network terminating units NT1 and NT384. Then connect the U interface of the network terminating units to the wall sockets.

ISDN PRI/T1
Connect the PRI/T1 cable to the PRI/T1 socket labeled “1” on the codec. Connect the other end of the cable to a Channel Service Unit (CSU). Then connect the CSU to the site’s PRI/T1 line.
Other Networks - Using the External Network Interface
If you are using other networks, please refer to ‘EXTERNAL NETWORK SETTINGS’ and ‘APPENDIX 2’.
LAN
Connect the LAN cable from the LAN connector on the rear of the codec to the site’s LAN network connection.
It is recommended that both the codec and control system be provided with a LAN connection. The system will function without a LAN connection if you are placing ISDN calls only, but a LAN connection is recommended for both software upgrades and remote diagnostics. The control system LAN information must be set locally. For information regarding the network settings on the codec, refer to ‘ADVANCED USE’ > ‘TERMINAL SETTINGS’.

Device Connections

Microphone
Connect the microphone cable to the XLR input of the 6000 codec. The default codec setting has all microphone inputs enabled and the gain set to +3dB. Adjustments to the audio settings may be done in ‘TOUCHSCREEN TOOLS’ or with the ‘IR CONTROLS’ (discussed later in this document).
Touch Panel
A 12” or 15” color video touch panel options are available for the Director system. Cables necessary for connecting them to the system are included with the touch panel. See ‘BASIC SYSTEM CONNECTIONS’ for details on connecting a touch panel. See APPENDIX 7: 12” TOUCH PANEL INTERFACE.
Main Camera
The main camera source selection corresponds to the first s-video input (labeled “1”) on the codec. This camera input used specifically with the controllable TANDBERG W.A.V.E II camera.
AUX Camera
The auxiliary camera source selection corresponds to the second s-video input (labeled “2”) on the codec. This camera input can be a fixed room camera or can be a second controllable TANDBERG W.A.V.E II camera. To control a second camera, control signaling must be “daisy-chained” from the first camera. Additionally, the camera must be powered locally and the video must be run separately back to the codec. Installation instructions for installing this are included with an extra camera when purchased.
