Installing the system
The CS-700 unit is designed to be mounted to the huddle-room wall using the
bracket included with the unit. The recommended mounting location is directly
adjacent to the display unit, typically just below it, with an optimal distance
above the conference room table of 10-18 inches (25 –45 cm). This provides
an optimum camera perspective for the far-end.
If the CS-700 unit is used in conjunction with a touch-screen or electronic
white board, the preferred installation location is immediately above the screen.
Bracket installation
Install the bracket with 4 appropriate screws on the wall, spacing two pair of
screws as far apart as possible. Ensure that the bracket is tight to the wall or
the spacers to avoid vibration. If installed below the display ensure that the
distance is big enough to fit the CS-700 unit. You can adjust the depth of the
installation by using the appropriate number of spacers (0-2) on each side.
Maximum mounting height is 2m / 6’ 8” from the floor. Always use 4 screws.

Placing the CS-700 unit on the bracket
Position the CS-700 in such a way that the two hooks in the front of the
bracket fit into the cavities on the lower part of the CS-700. Ensure that the
CS-700 is safely held by the hooks.
Connecting the CS-700
Once the CS-700 is safely positioned on the hooks of the bracket, connect the
power cable and the USB cable to the CS-700 as shown. If it is planned to
manage the CS-700 using the web browser, also connect the network cable into
the corresponding connector.
Secure the cable using the provided cable ties to the CS-700 unit.

Connecting to a Computer –USB 3.0
Using the included USB 3.0 cable, connect the USB Type-B side of the cable
into the port identified by the icon on the back of the CS-700 unit.
Connect the other end of the cable to the USB 3.0 port on the computer
running the third party softphone, webinar, or conferencing application.
Connect the CS-700 USB cable directly into the attached PC device. If a USB
3.0 cable longer than the length of the one provided is required, please ensure
that extension cables are fully USB 3.0 compliant and certified for video
applications. Find a list of approved USB 3.0 extension cables in the appendix.
Be sure the PC USB Port supports USB 3.0. The camera of the CS-700 will
send an uncompressed 1080p HD image over HD 3.0.
Note: The CS-700 will also support USB 2.0 connections with a reduced image
resolution of 360p. If limited video quality is observed, verify that the
USB port on the PC is truly 3.0.
The computer may detect new driver software and install it; wait until the
install has completed before continuing.
For optimal audio performance when using a Windows computer, please follow
the instructions in the appendix section. No additional configuration is
required when using macOS or Chrome OS devices.
Select device
In your operating system select the “Yamaha AudioVideo Device” as your
default audio playback and recording device.

16
In your unified communications application, select the CS-700 as the Video
device.
Connecting to an IP Network for System Management
Note, the CS-700 does not require Network Management in order to operate.
The Plug-and-play nature of the USB connection is sufficient to enable CS-700
to function. However if any network management features, including network
configuration, access to Web-UI, SNMP, and any SIP/VOIP connectivity (for
models CS-700SL, CS-700DS) is required, than an IP Network Connection is
necessary.
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable into the network connection port on the
bottom of the base unit using the network port. Press the Ethernet connector
until it clicks into place. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into a
jack providing network access. The CS-700 does not support PoE and is
powered from a separate power supply.
If the Ethernet cable needs to be removed, depress the lever on the connector
and pull the cable out gently. Using force when removing this cable may
damage the cable and render it useless.
Discovering IP Address
The IP Address is assigned to the CS-700 either through the DHCP protocol, or
statically via direct CS-700 configuration.
When using DHCP, the IP Address assigned to the CS-700 unit can be
discovered three ways.
Audible IP Address Reporting. Depress and hold the “Volume-UP” and
“Bluetooth” buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds. The CS-700 Unit will
produce an audio-report of the currently assigned IP Address. If no
address is assigned, the unit will reply “No address found”.

17
Connected PC via USB Cable, operating the “Service Application”. The
Service Application will provide a method of identifying the current IP
and MAC addresses of the CS-700 unit. The Service Application is used
by System Administrators.
Interrogation of DHCP Server Leased IP Address List, and association
with MAC Addresses. Known CS-700 MAC addresses will provide a
remotely managed estate of CS-700 units to be mapped to IP Addresses.
Connecting Extension Mics
The CS-700 offers a single Extension Microphone with Mute-Control as an
option. Connect the extension microphone into the CS-700 connector where
indicated. Only the Yamaha extension microphone is qualified for operation on
this port. The extension microphone includes a 25-feet (7.50 meter) cable.
Using Cable Management
To help secure the cables connected to the CS-700 main unit, indents are
provided on the back casing to support the included “hook-and-loop” cable ties.
Cables can be secured and tied-off on the back of the CS-700 to ensure robust
cable connections.
Adjusting Vertical Camera Angle
The CS-700 offers a manual vertical camera angle adjustment. This adjustment
is performed just once during initial unit installation, to properly align the
camera field of view with the table-top and conference participants. The
adjustment is made using a small/medium screwdriver inserted and pressed
into the adjustment hole on the left-side of the camera, then rotate the camera
assembly up or down to the desired angle. As the camera rotates, mechanical

18
detents within the camera mechanism will lock the camera into position. You
will hear clicking sounds as the detents engage.
Procedure for camera angle adjustment
1. Connect a PC through the CS-700 USB cable, and enable UC software, a
local PC camera application, or the Service Application.
2. Engage the UC Software / PC application / Service Application to display
the CS-700 camera onto the local PC screen. This provides immediate
feedback as to how the room appears on the far-side of a video
conference.
3. Engage the Camera Vertical Angle Adjustment as described above to
achieve a well-aligned capture of meeting room participants around the
table. Alignment should balance participants in the middle of the video
shot.
Note: The camera angle is adjusted simply by rotating the camera assembly up
or down using the screwdriver shaft –there is no actual screw to adjust.

User Interface
CS-700
The CS-700 unit provides volume up, volume down, audio mute, camera mute,
camera shutter, Bluetooth Pairing and Bluetooth NFC controls and indicators
on the front of the unit.
Volume Up/Down buttons affect the sound power from the CS-700, with
corresponding increasingly or decreasingly loud “beeps” occurring with each
press.
CS-700 will default the sound level to a pre-set value following each new USB
connection session.
Mute status is reflected on the color of the Mute Buttons.
Audio microphone Mute not-enable is green, while enabled is red. The
button will be OFF whenever the button is disabled as a configuration
option.
Camera Mute not-enabled is green, while enabled is red. The button will
glow white whenever the Camera is not active, and will be OFF whenever
the button is disabled as a configuration option.
CS-700 front panel audio controls (Volume, Mute) are synchronized with audio
controls on the attached Computer Operating System, enabling control from
both locations. See the section “Session Control Functionality Details” in the
appendix for more information.
Web User Interface (Web-UI)
The CS-700 supports an internal webserver and web-based user interface (ie
Web-UI), providing configuration and operations access to the unit over a
standard web browser. This interface is intended for use by System
Administrators, not end-users, and is only available through the IP network
interface. Using the IP address of the CS-700, the Web-UI can be accessed
using a web browser by entering the IP address in the URL line. Supported
browsers are Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox.

20
When accessing the CS-700 Web-UI webserver, the login page will be displayed.
A password is required to log in to the device. Unless the password was
previously changed, the factory default password is 7386.
Generally, after a time-out period the user will be automatically logged-out of
the web interface. However, if it is expected that more time is required for
configuring the unit, the login page provides a check box to disable to auto log-
out on this system, leaving the user logged in until an explicit log-off is
triggered or the web-browser window is closed.
Home Screen
Once logged in, the web interface will display the home screen. The home
screen provides current status information about the CS-700 unit, including
System Status, Media (USB, streaming) status, and Bluetooth status.
