Glossary
AEC
Acoustic echo cancellation. Audio processing that subtracts the far-end (speaker) audio from the sound
that your microphone picks up.
auto white balance
A setting that allows the camera to manage color adjustments automatically.
backlight compensation
A setting that reduces contrast to adjust for bright light behind the main subject of the shot.
Camera ID (setting)
Specifies which of the IR remote's three frequencies the camera responds to. Use the Camera Select
buttons on the remote to change frequency.
channel
A signal from a single source.
chroma
A setting that adjusts color intensity.
detail
A setting that adjusts image sharpness. If detail is set too low, the image may appear unrealistically
smooth.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network management protocol that assigns an IP address to a
device automatically when it is connected to the network.
DIP switches
An array of switches designed for installation on a circuit board. (DIP = Dual Inline Package; refers to
the physical form.) Our web interface has virtual ones because we miss the real ones.
EasyMic
Vaddio's proprietary connectivity standard for conferencing microphones.
echo cancellation
Audio processing that subtracts the far-end (speaker) audio from the sound that your microphone picks
up.
far end
(conferencing) A location in the conference other than the one where you are. Far-end video is what
you typically see in a conference – the people at the other end of the call.
Field of View (FOV)
How wide the video image is. Vaddio measures horizontal field of view. Some manufacturers use
diagonal field of view, which yields a bigger number for the same actual image area. Tilt your head to
one side and diagonal FOV will make sense.
flombodulator
A technically complex item the name of which you can't recall at the moment.
flow (Dante)
One to four channels that can be routed from device to device. Channels remain separate within the
flow. For example, left and right audio channels can be part of the same flow.
