VISION 5000 Videoconferencing System
Camera
The Main Camera is mounted on top of the monitor. The Main Camera includes a high quality colour camera
with a fast pan/tilt/zoom action. The Main Camera is controlled by the systems infra-red remote control and
operates pan/tilt, focus and zoom.
You can pre-store up to ten camera positions using the remote control.
Monitor(s)
The monitor displays the far-end and near-end videoconferencing sites. The standard system also utilizes the
built-in speaker of the monitor. If the Natural Audio module is installed (optional), the monitor speaker is
not used. The monitor is also used for displaying the Vision 5000 menus, on-screen help, video from
connected video sources and high-resolution still images.
You can also connect a second monitor for displaying self-view and still images.
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 a remote site and the
decompression of the incoming
information. Hence the name Codec. Intelligent Call Management (ICM) and the SoftMux are features built
into the Codec.
