    Zydacron web site (www.zydacron.com) and installed on both systems. The Zydacron OnWAN Z340 card and the host PC share a common IP address. During the set-up procedure user information including the IP address of the Gatekeeper, if one is deployed on the network, and the address of any on line directory are keyed into the OnWAN software menus.

    HARDWARE DESCRIPTION General The Zydacron OnWAN Z340 is a PC card based CODEC intended for a spare PCI slot. The complete system includes a camera with integral microphone, an audiovisual breakout cable and the OnWAN operating software. The PC powered loudspeakers together with the camera microphone provide hands free sound.
  • Page 6 Mobility As the Zydacron OnWAN Z340 CODEC is a card within a desktop PC system it cannot be moved easily. To enable operation, each new connection at each new location will require the local IP address of the host PC to be updated.

    In addition there was no indication from the Z340 software of the video coding in use. Zydacron informed us that the default coding for the OnWAN Z340 was H.263. On this basis we proceeded with the tests assuming that all video coding was to H.263 protocols.

    AUDIO TESTS (ITU standards only) As the second audio line input could not be activated on either unit, it was not possible to carry out tests 2 or 3. Test 1 was carried out with test signals inserted into the Headset Microphone input with the Echo Canceller set to OFF.

    Video and G.722 Audio. The audio level at the Management Centre was measured as peaking between 0 and +4dBm. Although there was no indication of the video coding in use as this test was satisfactory it does prove that the OnWan Z340 is also capable of handling H.261 video coded signals.
