Regulatory Notices
FCC Notice
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Polycom could void the user's authority to
operate this equipment.
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. On the bottom of this equipment is
a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number and Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, provide this information to your

information:
FCC compliant telephone cords and modular plugs are provided with this equipment. This
equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises’ wiring using a
compatible modular jack, which is Part 68 compliant. See installation instructions for details.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the
telephone line. Excessive RE’s on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in
response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of RE’s of all devices that
may be connected to a line, is determined by the total REN's, contact the local telephone
company.
If your ViewStation FX or VS4000 causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required.
However, if advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will
be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.

Chapter 1 Getting Started
ViewStation FX/VS 4000 Users Guide 4 www.polycom.com
Connect the 10-foot (3-meter) cable between the two microphone
pods.
Each microphone pod has an audio range of approximately 30 feet
(9-meters) and provides automatic gain control, noise suppression,
and echo cancellation. You can press the mute button on the
microphone to silence your end of the call. When the mute button is
lighted, your end of the call is muted.
The ViewStation FX or VS4000 provides two digital microphone
pods with the system. A second microphone pod provides enhanced
audio pickup for all ViewStation models, except the ViewStation SP.
Your ViewStation FX or VS4000 supports a maximum of two
microphone pods daisy-chained together.
Note If you add a microphone pod to, or remove a microphone
from, an FX of VS4000 system, you need to restart the
system for the system to recognize the presence of all
microphone pods.

What You Need to Get Started
You need the following items to use your ViewStation FX or VS4000:
For a V.35 network interface, access to your data
communications equipment (DCE) or data service unit (DSU)
For a PRI network interface, a PRI line from your service
provider
For a Quad BRI network interface, a BRI line from your service
provider
For a H.323 network interface, access to your local area network
(LAN)
A television monitor
A power source
A camera (VS 4000)
Television Monitors
You can use the ViewStation FX or VS4000 with two television
monitors and a VGA monitor that operates at 75 Hz or higher with a
resolution of 800 x 600, 1024 x 768, or 1280 x 1024.
You can use any S-Video or composite television monitor for your

ViewStation FX/VS 4000 Users Guide 6 www.polycom.com
Caution The camera is controlled using the remote control that is shipped with
the ViewStation FX or VS4000. Manually adjusting the camera can damage the
unit.
Note The ViewStation FX only supports Polycom wide-angle
lenses. Attaching a third-party vendor wide-angle lens can
cause damage that is not covered by the product warranty.
Third-party lenses may rub against the ViewStation FX
enclosure when the camera is reset. You can purchase a
Polycom Wide Angle Lens Adapter from your distributor or
at the Polycom Store at www.polycom.com
NT-1 Device
An ISDN network termination (NT-1) device may be required
between your ISDN line and the ViewStation. If your ViewStation is
not connected to an internal switchboard, such as a PBX, your
system may require an ISDN termination resistor to be installed if
you are behind a PBX.
