Operation and User Interface
The TANDBERG 8000 is normally operated via a hand-held, infrared
remote control. TANDBERG 8000's simple and concise multi-coloured
on-screen menu ensures that the user will be guided directly to the option
or the feature required. The menu system is cursor driven and easy to use.
With the intelligent on-screen user feedback the system always ensures the
relevant information is given to the user. (E.g. if a channel is lost, the user
will see on-screen text message ‘please wait, re-establishing the call’).
The Quick Keys (located on the top of the remote) relate to the three
blocks
at the bottom of the screen. The text on these blocks will change depending
on which menu is selected.
The user will hear a key tone when entering letters and digits via the
remote control. The key tones may be turned off via the system’s data port
if desired.
The TANDBERG 8000 can also be controlled via the data port of the
Codec by using a comprehensive set of data port commands
10
. This
enables the Codec to be controlled by a different user interface, such as an
AMX or Crestron system.
The web browser can be used as another interface to the TANDBERG
8000. By connecting the codec to a LAN, the codec may be accessed from
a PC located on the same LAN or WAN; allowing the codec’s features to
be controlled remotely via the web interface.
For information on how to operate the system, please see the
‘TANDBERG 8000 User Manual’ supplied with the system.
