Health Care System IIIIntroduction
Main HCS III Cart
Camera
The main WAVE (wide angle view) camera is mounted on top of the monitor and is continent specific
(NTSC for North America or PAL for Europe). It is a high quality colour camera with a fast pan/tilt/zoom
action. The camera is controlled by the system’s infrared remote control which operates pan/tilt, focus and
zoom. You can pre-store up to ten camera positions using the remote control.
Microphone
The standard TANDBERG HCS III Healthcare videoconferencing system is designed as a portable
diagnostics aid and communication tool that can be moved from examination room to examination room
within a medical facility. As such, it is intended for use where the person talking is within about 6 to 10 feet
of the system, and is in front of the system. Sometimes however, circumstances will require that the HCS III
be used in larger rooms, and/or with people speaking further away from it. In these instances, Tandberg
recommends using the “external microphone” supplied with the system.
Monitor
The monitor displays the far-end and near-end videoconferencing sites. The monitor is also used for
displaying the HCS III menus, on-screen help, video from connected video sources and still video images.
When the monitor is used for any HCS III function, Line B must be selected on the monitor’s control panel.
The monitor is suspended by the cart to allow swivel and tilt adjustment. If the cart is to be moved, the
monitor must be secured to the table below it using the attaching clips that are mounted at the rear of the
table.
Warning
For more information concerning the mobility of the system, see Precautions on pages 5 and 6.
LCD Display
The LCD display is used for dual monitor mode and the customer supplied PC. It supports 16 million colours
in VGA, SVGA, and XGA pixel formats. It has anti-glare coating and is mounted on a fully adjustable arm
that allows for easy viewing. Controls for the display are located at the bottom of the front panel. Refer to the
LCD User Manual for further information.
PC (customer supplied)
The customer supplied PC (with video capture card, if required) is placed on the shelf just below the utility
drawer. All the required audio, video, and communication cables for the computer are permanently installed
on the cart. A desktop (not tower) style PC is intended for placement on the shelf. Other specifications for
this PC are based on customer requirements and not the HCS III system.
Warning
The safety of the system could be compromised if the PC is not certified
and installed as per indicated under the Warning section on pages 4 and 5.
