Important safeguards
Before operating a camera, please read the entire manual thoroughly.
•
Use only the wall mount power supply provided. Using a different power supply may cause
the camera to malfunction or may damage the camera
•
Do not operate the camera if the power cord is damaged or if the camera has been dropped
or damaged. A qualified service technician must examine the camera before operating.
•
Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled on or come into contact with hot
surfaces.
•
Always unplug the camera from the electrical outlet before cleaning or servicing.
•
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse in water or other liquids.
Handling the camera
•
All ClearOne cameras are for indoor use only.
•
Do not use cameras next to food or beverages. Cameras have been tested and approved for
use in chemistry labs. However, be careful not to spill liquid or dry chemicals or solvents on
the camera.
•
Do not use cameras right next to working TVs, radios, motors, transformers or magnetic
fields.
•
Avoid touching the lens. To clear any dust, blow pressurized air onto the lens. Clean smears
or smudges by wiping with a lens cleaning cloth.
•
Clean exterior of camera with a clean, damp cloth; do not use any abrasive
chemicals.

Use both hands whenever adjusting the neck of the camera; this will avoid any unnecessary
strain on the camera base and will keep the camera from tipping over.

General usage
Turning on the camera
Turn on your camera with the on/off switch located at the base of the gooseneck.
Positioning the camera
The camera head is swivel mounted. Do not turn it past the natural resistance. Adjust the
flexible gooseneck (maximum 90°) until the camera is aligned with the subject.
Using the microphones
A highly sensitive microphone is located under the lens on the camera head. Audio levels
are optimal when the camera is pointed toward the person speaking, at arm’s length. If the
speaker's image moves out of the picture, the sound level will begin to drop off.
Focusing the image
Check the contrast, brightness and white balance of your monitor or screen before focusing
on your subject in the presentation room.
Turn the focus ring to the left for close-up, right for distance. The FlexCam camera includes
a larger focus ring. Attach the focus ring by carefully pushing the smaller end of the ring
onto the focus knob at the center of the camera head. (The focus ring will not be flush with
the camera head.)
Displaying the image
On a TV
When the camera is properly connected to the TV, switch the TV to video mode. To change
to video mode, use either the switch on the TV front panel or press the corresponding
button on the remote control. Consult the owner's manual that came with your TV for
information on changing to video mode.
Note:
Not all TVs have Video Inputs. If your TV only has an antenna input, you will need a
modulator or a VCR with video inputs.
With a VCR
Put the VCR in the video-in mode (consult your owner's manual for instructions). Turn the
camera power on. Turn the VCR/TV switch to VCR and the TV to either channel 3 or 4
(whichever is not used as a broadcast station in your area).
Using the Camera
Camera connections
The FlexCam, TeachCam, StudentCam and IDCam connect to video display devices (TV,
VCR, projector, etc.) using the 6' cable audio and S-video cable (20' included with the
StudentCam and TeachCam). The cameras can also be connected to a computer using the
USB adapter (not included).
To connect camera to a TV, VCR or projector
1. Connect the S-video and audio plugs to the S-video and audio out jacks on the camera
base.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the audio and S-video jacks on the video display
device.
Note:
If the TV or VCR does not have S-video capabilities and requires a composite signal,
connect the S-video to Composite Adapter to the S-video cable and plug it into the RCA jack
on the TV or VCR.
3. Plug the power supply into an electrical outlet or grounded power strip. Connect the power
supply cable to the camera.
Attention:
Use only the wall mount power supply provided. Using a different power supply
may cause the camera to malfunction or may damage the camera.
To connect camera to a computer
When connecting to a computer, ensure that the video capture card and all necessary
software programs and drivers are installed correctly. Consult the user manual for your
video capture card or USB adapter for instructions on connecting the camera.

Problem
Suggestion
There is no video on TV
monitor when connected to
a VCR.
Ensure that the camera, TV and VCR are plugged
into power supplies and turned on.
Ensure the camera is properly connected to the
VCR. The yellow plug on the camera should
connect to the video in jack on the VCR.
Make sure the TV is on the correct channel for
video (channel 3 or 4). Consult your TV user
manual.
TV does not have an S-video
input.
Use the S-video to composite adapter to convert
the S-video signal to a composite signal for your
TV or VCR.
How do you connect the
camera to a computer?
Use an S-video to USB adapter (recommended)
or install a video card in your computer (not
supported).
