Administrator's Guide for the Polycom RealPresence Group Series

Configuring Video Input Settings

Refer to System Back Panel Views
for each RealPresence Group system. Although you can connect devices that are not automatically
discovered, the available choices in the interface might not be the same as they would for automatically
discovered devices. For example, if you connect an unsupported camera, the system attempts to show
video. Polycom does not guarantee that the results will be optimal or that you will be able to set up the
camera the same as a supported camera.
To configure camera and video settings in the web interface:
» Go to Admin Settings >Audio/Video > Video Inputs.

Configuring Input Settings

Configure the following settings for each input connected to your RealPresence Group system.
Polycom, Inc.
on page 171 for an illustrated view of the inputs and outputs available
Description
Specifies whether other sites can adjust the view in your camera.
Specifies the power line frequency for your system.
In most cases, the system defaults to the correct power line frequency, based
on the video standard used in the country where the system is located. This
setting allows you to adapt the system in areas where the power line frequency
does not match the video standard used. You might need to change this
setting to avoid flicker from the fluorescent lights in your conference room.
Specifies which is the primary camera. You specify the main camera when you
set up the system, but you can change that selection here.
Input 1 is typically your main camera.
Enables the ability to use the People+Content IP application.
Enables the use of snapshot icons that represent camera preset
configurations. The default setting is controlled by the Security Profile, but you
can change the default here.
If you change your security profile setting from Low or Medium to High or
Maximum, or if you disable the setting, the RealPresence Group system
replaces each preset image with a blue, striped box. Presets that have not
been configured show as empty rectangles.
When you disable the Enable Camera Preset Snapshot Icons setting in the
web interface, the blue, striped boxes in the local interface show you which
presets are configured, but enabling the setting does not redisplay the
shapshot icons. You can see shapshot icons that represent preset
configuration images only when you configure a preset with the Enable
Camera Preset Snapshot Icons setting enabled.
