Preventing Monitor Burn-In

Monitors and VSX systems provide display settings to help prevent image
burn-in. Plasma televisions can be particularly vulnerable to this problem.
Refer to your monitor's documentation or manufacturer for specific
recommendations and instructions. The following guidelines help prevent
image burn-in:
• Set Output upon Screen Saver Activation to Black.
• Use the monitor's burn-in prevention features, if available.
• Ensure that static images are not displayed for long periods.
• Set the Screen Saver Wait Time to 3 minutes or less.
• To keep the screen clear of static images during a call, disable the
following settings:
— Display Icons in a Call described on page
— Display Time in Call described on page
— Far Site Name Display described on page
• Be aware that meetings that last more than an hour can have the same
effect as a static image.
• Consider decreasing the monitor's sharpness, brightness, and contrast
settings if they are set to their maximum values.
You can present content during calls on a TV monitor or VGA display when
you use:
• People+Content IP installed on a computer, with any VSX system
• A Visual Concert VSX data collaboration unit, with any VSX set-top
system
• An ImageShare II device, with any VSX component system
• A QSX™ system, with any VSX system, which allows users to share
content via an Internet connection with up to 10 meeting participants who
do not have video capabilities
• A computer connected directly to a VSX component system
For information about ordering the People+Content IP option, Visual Concert
VSX unit, ImageShare II device, or QSX system, please contact your Polycom
distributor.
