Finding the Information You Need
There are a number of new and altered instructions available in
version F7.1
Configuration Commands
CallVideoSource: <0/1/5/6>
New in this version. The Call Video Source is the default call
video source you would prefer to use in a call.
Conference PeriodicIntra: <0..1000>
New in this version. Use this setting to generate a new intra
frame with a congurable interval. Use this setting with caution
since it in a normal network will decrease the video quality. The
default value is set to 0 which means off. If you congure it to
10 it will send an intra every 10th second.
Conference VideoText: <On/Off/Auto>
New in this version. In MultiSite calls you can display the names
of the participants on screen. By setting the Video Text Time-out
setting, the system is congured to display the names for a
period of time or as long as you are connected.
Conference VideoTextTimeout: <0..30>
New in this version. Sets the timer for the On-screen name
of participants in MultiSite calls. Set the timer to display the
names for a period of time or as long as you are connected.
CorporateDirectory Protocol: <HTTP/HTTPS>
New in this version. TANDBERG MXP systems now support
secure management when communicating with the TMS
(TANDBERG Management Suite).
Directory CallLog: <On/Off>
New in this version. Enable/disable Call Logs for Placed calls,
Missed calls and Received calls in the Phone Book.
DynamicResolution Mode <Auto/Off>
New in this version. With Dynamic Resolution the system will
use the optimal video resolution for the chosen bandwidth. This
feature is only applicable to HD (high denition) calls.
If set to Auto and in a HD call: the resolution will differ between
the bandwidths 720p, 576p and 448p, dependent on how much
motion it is in the picture. The call will start with 720p and
change to a lower resolution when there is a lot motion. It will go
back to 720p with less motion.
If set to Off: Disables the Dynamic Resolution feature (the
default setting).
ExternalManager Protocol: <HTTP/HTTPS>
New in this version. Enables/disables for secure management.
ExternalServices Protocol: <HTTP/HTTPS>
New in this version. Enables/disables for secure management.
HTTPS VerifyServerCerticate: <On/Off>
New in this version. TANDBERG MXP systems now support
secure management when communicating with the TMS.

menting Secure Management” which describes how to congure

ment, follow the link: http://www.tandberg.com/support/docu-
mentation.php and select White Papers.
Kiosk OneClickConnect: <On/Off>
New in this version. If turned On, you can make a call with a
single click on the green call button on the remote control. The
system will call the rst entry in “My Contacts” in the Phone
Book. NOTE: This functionality will only work in Kiosk Mode
If set to Off: Does not allow for one click connect in Kiosk mode.
MaxBandwidth: <128..10240>
New in this version. Limit max bandwidth usage for the system.
Related to IPMedia MaxVideoTXRate, which only controls up-
stream bandwidth.

New in this version. The call duration can be displayed on
screen. The timer showing the duration of the call is displayed in
the bottom right corner of the screen.

Swedish/Danish/Italian/Portuguese/Japanese/Chinese/Tradi-
tionalChinese/Russian/Spanish/Korean/Finnish/Thai/Arabic>
Altered in this version. Added Danish menu language to the list.
SerialPort 1 Mode: <Control/Transparent/Direct>
Altered in this version. Control: Gives access to the Command
Line Interface. Transparent: Enables transmission of text during
call on a line by line basis. Direct: Enables transmission on
binary data during call. NOTE! Only Serial Port 1.

REFERENCE GUIDE FOR SYSTEM INTEGRATORS
Thank you for buying a product which contributes to a reduc-
tion in pollution, and thereby helps save the environment. Our
products reduce the need for travel and transport and thereby
reduce pollution. Our products have either none or few consum-
able parts (chemicals, toner, gas, paper). Our products are low
energy consuming products.
TANDBERG’s Environmental Policy
Environmental stewardship is important to TANDBERG’s
culture. As a global company with strong corporate values,
TANDBERG is committed to following international environmen-
tal legislation and designing technologies that help companies,
individuals and communities creatively address environmental
challenges.
TANDBERG’s environmental objectives are to:
Develop products that reduce energy consumption, CO• 2
emissions, and traffic congestion
Provide products and services that improve quality of life for•
our customers
Produce products that can be recycled or disposed of safely•
at the end of product life
Comply with all relevant environmental legislation.•
European Environmental Directives
As a manufacturer of electrical and electronic equipment TAND-
BERG is responsible for compliance with the requirements in
the European Directives 2002/96/EC (WEEE) and 2002/95/EC
(RoHS).
The primary aim of the WEEE Directive and RoHS Directive is
to reduce the impact of disposal of electrical and electronic
equipment at end-of-life. The WEEE Directive aims to reduce
the amount of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration
by requiring producers to arrange for collection and recycling.
The RoHS Directive bans the use of certain heavy metals and
brominated flame retardants to reduce the environmental
impact of WEEE which is landfilled or incinerated.
TANDBERG has implemented necessary process changes to
comply with the European RoHS Directive (2002/95/EC) and
the European WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC).
Waste Handling
In order to avoid the dissemination of hazardous substances
in our environment and to diminish the pressure on natural
resources, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-back
systems in your area. Those systems will reuse or recycle most
of the materials of your end of life equipment in a sound way.
TANDBERG products put on the market after August
2005 are marked with a crossed-out wheelie bin sym-
bol that invites you to use those take-back systems.
Please contact your local supplier, the regional waste
administration or http://www.tandberg.com/recycling
if you need more information on the collection and recycling
system in your area.
Information for Recyclers
As part of compliance with the European WEEE Directive, TAND-
BERG provides recycling information on request for all types of
new equipment put on the market in Europe after August 13th
2005.
Please contact TANDBERG and provide the following details
for the product for which you would like to receive recycling
information:
Model number of TANDBERG product•
Your company’s name•
Contact name•
Address•
Telephone number•
E-mail.•
Digital User Guides
TANDBERG is pleased to announce that we have replaced the
printed versions of our User Guides with a digital CD version.
Instead of a range of different user manuals, there is now one
CD – which can be used with all TANDBERG products – in a
variety of languages. The environmental benefits of this are
significant. The CDs are recyclable and the savings on paper
are huge. A simple web-based search feature helps you directly
access the information you need. In addition, the TANDBERG
video systems now have an intuitive on-screen help function,
which provides a range of useful features and tips. The con-
tents of the CD can still be printed locally, whenever needed.
