1-1-2. Operating Environment
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 TV monitor. Light intensity on
faces should be about 300 lux or more.
If an inverter type or brightness-adjustable type of fluores-
cent lamp is used, the sensitivity of the remote commander
may deteriorate.

1-4-1. Inserting Batteries into the Remote
Commander
Most of the operations with the video communication
system can be controlled with the supplied remote com-
mander.
n
Be sure to insert the batteries _side first. Inserting them
forcibly +side first may damage the insulated film
covering the batteries and cause a short circuit.
m
Battery life
When the remote commander does not function properly,
replace both the batteries with new ones.
Notes on batteries
To avoid damage from possible battery leakage or corro-
sion, observe the following:
.Make sure to insert the batteries with the polarities in the
correct direction.
.Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of
batteries.
.Do not attempt to charge the batteries.
.If the remote commander is not used for a long period of
time, remove the batteries from it.
.If battery leakage occurs, clean the battery compartment
and replace all the batteries with new ones.
PCSA-RG1
1. Remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert two size AA (R6) batteries (supplied) with
correct polarities into the battery compartment.
3. Attach the cover.
PCS-RG70
1. Remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert two size AAA (R03) batteries (supplied) with

1-4-2. Turning On/Off the TV Monitor Together with the Communication
Terminal
If a Sony TV monitor is used, insert the IR repeater under the remote sensor of the TV monitor. Once the
IR repeater is set, the TV monitor will turn on or go to standby together with the communication terminal
by pressing the /button on the supplied remote commander.
Using a remote control receiver
The remote control receiver of this unit is located at the bottom of a camera unit (PCS-CG70/CG70P).
However, a remote control receiver can be installed in the optimum place using a supplied remote control unit.
Use a remote control unit in the following cases.
.When it is difficult to perform operation with the camera unit and monitor television kept apart and
.When an obstacle exists around a camera unit and a remote control signal cannot be sent
m
.The control receiver of a camera unit does not operate when a remote control unit is connected.
.Install a remote control unit so that mark R is put in the front position (control receiver surface).
.Attach a supplied film to the control receiver surface for improvement when it is difficult to receive a
remote control signal because of the influence of an inverter fluorescent lamp. (In this case, be sure to
install a remote control unit in the vertical direction.)

1-4-3. When the Power is First Turned On
after Installation
Turning On
Turn on the communication terminal in the following
procedure.
1. Turn on the TV monitor.
If the IR repeater is installed in the TV monitor, set the
TV monitor to standby mode. The TV monitor will
turn on simultaneously when the communication
terminal is turned on.
2. Turn on the power of any other equipment to be used
for the videoconference.
3. Open the front panel of the communication terminal,
then set the power switch on the right side to the on
position ( ).
The communication terminal turns on after a while. Three
indicators on the front of the communication terminal and
the POWER indicator on the camera light, then only the
POWER indicators on both units remain on in green.
m
.After the power is turned on, the camera unit moves
automatically for trial operation. Be careful not to catch
your finger.
.If the camera is obstructed forcefully while it is moving,
it may not resume moving or output a signal to the
communication terminal. In this case, turn off the
terminal, and turn it on again.
.A Sony TV monitor may not turn on if the “IR Repeater
Mode” setting does not meet the TV monitor specifica-
tions. In this case, turn on the TV monitor manually or
by using its remote controller, perform the setup wizard
of the communication terminal, and then change the “IR
Repeater Mode” setting in the General Setup menu.
Setting Up the System for the First Time — Initial
Setup Wizard

ISDN unit is newly installed after system installation.
Similarly, register according to the wizard in this case.
.When the communication terminal and the camera are
separately installed, point the remote commander to the
camera unit for operations.
.Press the button with the remote controller put toward
the remote sensor of the remote control receiver when a
remote control receiver is connected.

use with this system, such as the data solution box or
ISDN unit, for the first time, the communication
terminal may automatically upgrade the software of
the connected device. While the upgrading message is
displayed on the monitor screen, be sure not to turn off
the communication terminal. Doing so may cause

by an accidental problem such as a power interruption
during upgrading. If connection of the data solution
box or ISDN unit to the communication terminal is not
re-established even after the system power is recov-
ered, consult a Sony dealer.
