About VISIO 22 6
2 About VISIO 22
Handy design, very simple to use, excellent picture quality – that is what
VISIO 22 stands for.
Visio is an image-enlarging video system according to ISO 9999:2011
code is 22 03 18.
All VISIO 22 models have a High-Resolution camera and a 22”
widescreen display in 16 : 9 format with high contrast and power saving
LED backlight. Thanks to the High-Resolution camera VISIO 22 provides
a bright and crisp image even in the smallest magnification.
Though being one of the smallest, lightweight and best designed
devices, VISIO 22 provides most functionality you expect from a basic
CCTV reader.
VISIO 22 features full colour autofocus and a limited choice of false
colours. Reverse foreground and background colour is also provided.
Thanks to its image optimizer feature VISIO 22 will always provide an
optimum image quality.
VISIO 22 can even display documents of very poor quality magnified and
in higher contrast, like faint print or crumpled or dirty paper. However
despite all technical efforts made, there may exist a few documents
which cannot be displayed properly. In those rare cases, the full colour
setting may be the best setting but in seldom cases it may happen that a
document cannot be made better readable.

4 How to position VISIO 22 on your desk
Place VISIO 22 on your desk and set it so far back that when pulled out
to the maximum position (nearest to your belly) the front edge of the XY-
table is aligned to the front edge of your desk or even a little further back.
Also, when pushed to the leftmost or rightmost position, the edges of the
XY-table shall not exceed the boundaries of your table! Thus a safe
stand of VISIO 22 is provided in all conditions of operation.

Very first time power on after installation 8
5 Very first time power on after installation
The following chapter usually can be skipped, as this has usually already
been done when you received your VISIO 22. It should not be necessary
that you do this again.
Connect VISIO 22 power supply to mains.
Press Power button on left of control unit for about one second or
until lights turn on, monitor should be turned on automatically. (Check for
red light on bottom right of TFT display.
Display power button is directly below light. You can move your finger
from the right bottom edge of Display frame slowly to the left, until you
feel the raised power button. After pressing this button, the red light will
be lit. From now, VISIO will switch on the Monitor automatically.
The above steps only have to be performed once directly after assembly.
In your daily use from then on, you only have to press the Power button
on the VISIO 22 control panel.

You have already learned how to position VISIO on your desk and you
have connected VISIO to the power supply.
You can slightly tilt the display so that you can comfortably view the
screen. Do not tilt too much; do not try to exceed the stopper position.
Now, switch on VISIO 22 and use it for the first time.
The control panel is mounted right below the screen. The power
buttonis the leftmost one. A short press for about a second on the
power button will switch on VISIO 22. As soon as the lights turn on, you
may release the power button. The Display may show a message
“Invalid video mode”, after a few seconds VISIO shows a magnified
image.
You can switch VISIO 22 off by pressing the power button for more than
a second. Thus, touching this button accidentally will have no effect.
Practice switching on and off VISIO for a few times then leave it switched
on to proceed.
Place a document on the XY-table. Please use something coloured, like
a brochure or magazine with text and images.
You can align a document horizontally by moving it against the silver rim
at the back end of the XY-table. Thus you will track a line when moving
the XY-table left and right.
The XY-table provides a brake that can fix the table. At the front edge,
you find the brake lever. Put it in the leftmost position and you can move
the XY-table freely in all directions. In the middle position, you can move
the XY-table left and right only and the up down position is fixed. In the
rightmost position the table is fixed in all directions.
Now, align your document against the back rim and position the brake
lever in the leftmost position.

WARNING: Avoid having fingers or (pieces of) clothes jammed into
the mechanism of the XY-table underneath the reading platform. Please
put your hands on top of or on the front side of the reading platform. Do
not reach underneath the sides or underneath the rear side of the
reading table.
Let us try the buttons on the control panel now. We have already
learned, the power on button is the leftmost button.
In the middle of the control panel, there is a round knob. This is the
zoom knob which controls magnification. Turning this knob clockwise
will increase magnification while turning it counter clockwise will
decrease magnification. Turn the zoom knob counter clockwise to the
end position to obtain minimum magnification.
The minimum zoom level is not intended for reading; however it gives
you a better overview on the document structure. Thus you can easily
find the position you want to view at higher magnifications.
Now, press the picture button. The picture button is located to the right
of the zoom knob. Pressing this button will set VISIO to real colour or
picture mode. This mode is ideal for viewing images and it also serves
for reading bad print and for writing or filling in forms. It provides all
natural colours in all shades.
So move the XY-table until you see one of the images of your document.
If the image is too small, increase magnification by turning the zoom
knob clockwise. If you got lost and do not know where you are on the
document, decrease magnification, move the XY-Table and increase
again.
VISIO will remember the last setting even after power off.
You already know a lot about VISIO now, however let us read some text.
Move the XY-table to a position where you see some text on the display.
Now press the text button. The text button is the rightmost button on the
control panel. The image will be displayed in high contrast now and in

Getting familiar with your new VISIO 22 12
two false colours only. If you press the text button again, foreground
colour and background colour will be reversed. Press this button more
times to change the colours, reverse them and change colours again.
Press this button a few times to see the effect, also switch between text
mode and picture mode to see the difference. In text mode, letters are
much clearer and brighter with higher contrast whereas in picture mode
you see all colours and shades of grey.
You do not like the colours shown in text mode? No problem! Let us
change them. You have a selection of four false colour combinations and
with reversing foreground and background you will have 8 different
colour options. Try out by pressing the text button. This is the rightmost
button on the control panel. Each time you press it, the colours will
change. After you went through all 8 options it will start over again.
The available false colours are black-white, black-yellow, black-green
and blue-yellow.
Select the colours you prefer with the text button and press the text
button again for reversing foreground and background until you find the
option you prefer.
Note: VISIO 22 remembers the colour settings you made. So if you
switch between Text mode and Picture mode and come back to Text
mode, you find the previous colours there. VISIO 22 will even remember
your last settings when you switch it off.
Now that you found your preferred colour settings in text mode, let us try
to read some more problematic text with low contrast or faint print. In
most cases, VISIO’s automatic image control will present a good quality
magnified image of your document. This is easy with black characters on
bright white paper. However sometimes documents are of low quality like
coloured text on coloured background or bad copies with faint print on
grey paper. In those cases we make use of the Image Optimizer button.
This is the second button from the left, directly left to the zoom knob. The
image optimizer button selects one of five levels of optimization. So if
you do not get a good quality representation on VISIO’s display, simply
press this button several times until you get the best result.

Getting familiar with your new VISIO 22 13
This button works in Picture mode as well as in Text mode.
Note: You will often find the previous setting was the best one, so the
trick to get one step back is by pressing the button four more times.
VISIO 22 has an automatic autofocus. That means, no matter how thick
a book or how curved a page, VISIO will always focus on the part
displayed and thus always present a sharp image on the display.
Now you have already learnt about all options on VISIO 22. We hope
you will enjoy your new CCTV.
