Question 12
Do fluorescent lights provide most of the light in the room? (If not, please specify
the types of lighting fixtures.)
Anything Else?
Here's Why We're Asking:
The ATX is designed to work best in a room with evenly dispersed, ambient light.
•
Light levels should be between 40 and 70 foot candles, with an ideal of 45 foot candles and a minimum of 40
foot candles.
•
Only electronic ballast fluorescent lights should be used. (Do not use magnetic ballast lights.)
•
The optimal color temperature is 4100K.
•
Although some regions of Japan operate on 50 Hz and some operate on 60 Hz, the camera power frequency for
all of Japan should always be set for 60 Hz.
Polycom recommends using a lighting designer and having the lighting professionally installed.
Question 13
Does the room have thermostats, fire alarms, light switches, or other controls on
the wall behind where the displays will be located?
Anything Else?
Here's Why We're Asking:
Because the displays are installed on a wall, they may cover up any thermostats, fire alarms, light switches, or other
controls located on that wall. Polycom recommends selecting a wall that does not have any thermostats or light
switches, or that you have the thermostats or light switches moved prior to the display installation.
Question 14
Are there any rooms near the ATX room that may be noisy (for example, meeting
rooms, offices, kitchen, reception areas, restrooms, or copy centers)? Polycom
recommends that the NC rating for the room should be under 30, which is an SPL
meter reading of about 40 dBA.
Anything Else?
Here's Why We're Asking:
Sounds from adjacent rooms may interfere with the audio during conferences. If the room does not meet the
specifications above, the customer may want to consider another room or the integrator may be able to determine
ways to reduce noise within the room (whether the noise comes from adjacent rooms, HVAC, or other sources).
