Layout Considerations
• Avoid having large, moving objects,
especially people, behind the participants,
as the quality of the picture transmitted to
the remote party will deteriorate.
• Do not seat participants in front of a wall
with fine stripe patterns.
• Choose a room where echo will not occur.
• Do not install the system near noise
sources such as air conditioners or copy
machines.
• Avoid placing the system in a room where
there are the speakers used for an in-house
broadcasting system.
Lighting Considerations
Do not point the camera toward a window
where sunlight comes in as back lighting
may decrease the contrast. If it is necessary,
cover the window with a thick curtain.
Adjust room lighting so that it falls on the
participants. Avoid direct light on the
display. Light intensity on faces should be
about 300 lux or more.
If an inverter type or brightness-adjustable
type of fluorescent lamp is used, the
sensitivity of the Remote Commander may
deteriorate.
