Standard System Components

This section describes the standard components that come with ViewStation EX, ViewStation FX, and VS4000 systems. The models differ somewhat in their standard components, as noted in the descriptions of the components.

In addition to the standard components, you can connect optional items to enhance your videoconferences. These are described in the next section, Optional System Components on page 1-11.

Main System

The ViewStation EX and ViewStation FX set-top systems provide cutting-edge videoconferencing technology in a sleek design. The set-top contains the main camera, system software, and internal hardware.

The VS4000 is a rack-mounted videoconferencing system that provides enhanced videoconferencing capabilities including connections for up to three cameras and a VCR or DVD, up to five monitors (four NTSC or PAL and one VGA), VCR inputs and outputs, LAN connectivity for a computer, and connections for an external audio system.

The original VS4000 uses 4-pin mini-DIN connectors for all S-Video connections; the enhanced VS4000 uses dual BNC connectors.

Remote Control

The remote control is designed to make it easy to set up and operate the system — a clearly marked, color-coded button corresponds to each common user task.

For more information about how to use the remote control, refer to the Getting Started Guide available in the Documentation Library on the CD that came with the system or at the Polycom web site, www.polycom.com/videodocumentation.
