Displaying Content with People+Content IP

Preventing Monitor Burn-In

Monitors and V500 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 Time 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.
People+Content IP is an optional software application available for the
V500 system. It enables a presenter to show content from a computer to other
sites in a video conference using only an IP network connection.
The presenter can show PowerPoint® slides, web pages, spreadsheets, or any
other type of content that runs from a computer. Supported resolutions
include 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, and 1280x1024.
