Positioning the System

Connecting the Monitor
2 - 2
Position the system so that the camera does not face toward a window or other
source of bright light.
To position the system:
Place the V500 system on top of your TV monitor. For optimal audio and
video performance, locate the monitor within 5 to 10 feet (1.5 to 3 meters)
away from the people in the call.
You must connect a television monitor to the V500 system. You can use either
an NTSC or PAL monitor, depending on your system.
The back panel view, shown on page 2-1, shows the location of the connectors
used for the monitor.
To connect a monitor to the system:
1. Connect a yellow connector on the monitor cable from the S-video or
composite video output on the back of the system to the monitor.
You must use the same type of connector on the V500 system as on the
monitor. For example, if you use the S-video connector on the system, use
the S-video connector on the monitor.
Polycom recommends using S-video because it provides superior video
quality.
2. Connect the red and white connectors on the monitor cable from the
audio outputs on the back of the system to the monitor's audio inputs.
