Near End Video Quality
Before you place a call, examine the near end video image of the camera. If the image flickers, colors appear unbalanced, or the image appears too dark, you may need to adjust the room lighting or camera brightness and whitebalance.
Placing a Call
You can place a video or voice call with your VCS system in the following ways:
•Select a stored number from the REDIAL list on the main screen or from the directory.
•Manually dial a number using the Video Call or Voice Call buttons on the main screen.
You can place a call with the IP addresses. This enables systems inside a corporate network without access to a gateway to call other systems in the network using system IP addresses.
NOTE
When microphone howling occurs during the Video or Voice call, the microphone will be shut off automatically and the icon for announcing that the microphone is shut off will appear on the lower
Placing a Call from the REDIAL List
The REDIAL list on the main screen stores up to 15 recently dialed numbers. A scroll bar appears when more than five entries are available for selection. The oldest entry in the list is automatically removed when the system receives a call after the maximum number of entries has been reached.
The last call placed always appears at the top of the list. The entry includes the name of the system called and an icon that
indicates whether the call was a voice or video call. The entry’s number (and bandwidth if the entry is a video call) appears below the list when the entry is selected. If the system receives a call, but does not answer it, the call appears in the REDIAL list as a missed call. The symbol appears next to the name in the entry. Select the entry to display the date and time of the missed call below the REDIAL list.
To place a call from the REDIAL list, use the arrow keys on the remote control to select an entry and press OK.
To change the bandwidth for a video call on the REDIAL list before placing the call, select Video Call on the main screen, press OK twice, and use the right arrow key to select the desired bandwidth from the list.
