Internal LCD Display
The system has a built-in 5inch LCD designed to optimize system configuration and give the user
access to menus and test video signals without attaching or powering an external display device.
The LCD gives full control of all system settings and status. Below the LCD there are three
system indicators, one red light indicating that the system is powered, one yellow light indicate
that a call is active, and one green light indicate that the table microphones are muted.
External display
The TANDBERG Maestro is designed to give unlimited flexibility on the choice of display
technologies and solutions to display video, and is an ideal solution for large meeting rooms
which already are equipped with e.g. front projector and screen. For transferring video signal to
one or more external display devices the Codec has the following video outputs:
- DVI-I analog or digital interface
- XGA
- MiniDin, S-video
- RCA / Phono, Composite video
The usage of S-video gives the best quality for showing video of a far end, and use of DVI-I and
XGA gives the best quality at PC presentation. Read user manual on the display device for
configuration of settings at external display to meet setting at the Codec.
Codec
The codec is the heart of the system. Its main task is the compression of outgoing video, audio
and data, the transmission of this information to the far end and the decompression of the
incoming information - the name codec comes from a combination of the two words compression
and decompression.
The system is easily movable with four wheels and one handle. The codec is located inside the
pedestal and behind the codec cover, which is easy removable. The pedestal stands on a solid
base with an access hatch on the rear. On the inside of the hatch there are pockets for storing
remote control and microphones. Pull the hatch to open. Inside the base there is room for
additional equipment, e.g. a VCR/DVD, and for storage of cables. The Digital Natural Audio
Module is built into the pedestal.
Remote Control
The remote control is used to control all functions of the system. If the screen saver is activated
(black monitor), touching the remote control will automatically wake up the system. The remote
control uses 4 AAA batteries. The system will tell you when batteries are running low. Change the
batteries at the back of the remote control.
