Chapter 1 - Introducing the ViewStation EX, ViewStation FX, and VS4000 Systems
© Polycom, Inc. 1-7
Main Camera
The ViewStation EX and ViewStation FX come with an integrated main camera.
Polycom recommends the Polycom PowerCam
™
as the main camera for the
VS4000 because the system uses a single connector for camera power and video,
camera control, and the camera’s integrated infrared remote control receiver.
The VS4000 system can also use a Sony EVI-D100 (NTSC) or EVI-D100P (PAL)
camera as its main camera.
The enhanced VS4000 is designed to be used with the PowerCam. Although it can use any
of the cameras supported by the original VS4000, the full Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) functionality
is available only with the PowerCam.
Microphone
The microphone pod provides audio input to the system. Its advanced audio
technology focuses on the speaker so that the speaker’s voice does not have to
compete with background noises, such as the sound from an air conditioner, to be
heard. The microphone pod is designed to pick up voices from any direction.
The ViewStation EX comes standard with one microphone pod; the
ViewStation FX and VS4000 come with two.
Power Supply
The ViewStation EX and ViewStation FX set-top systems have an external power
supply; the VS4000 has an internal power supply. They all use line voltages
between 90V and 260V and line frequencies from 47 Hz to 63 Hz.
Do not use any power supply other than the one supplied with your ViewStation EX or
ViewStation FX system. Using the wrong power supply will void the warranty and may
damage your system.
