AXIS 213 - Setup
Audio Settings
This section describes how to configure the basic audio settings for the AXIS 213, e.g.
set the communication mode and adjust the sound levels in the microphone and
speaker connected to the connection module.
General
Enable audio transmission to and from the AXIS 213 using the connection module
which is an optional accessory. Refer to
Installing the audio equipment, on page 48
for more information.
Audio Channels
There are two mono audio channels between the AXIS 213 and other clients, one for
receiving audio and one for transmitting audio. Each audio channel can be turned on
or off, which means that there are four audio mode options that can be used.
Full-duplex mode means that you can transmit and receive audio (talk and listen) at
the same time, without having to use any of the controls. This is just like having a
telephone conversation. The only controls you may wish to use are the mute buttons
to turn off the sound, and the sliders, to adjust the input/output volume levels. This
mode requires that the client PC has a sound card with support for full-duplex audio.
If your available bandwidth is 0.2 Mbit/s or less, it is recommended that you use
Half-duplex mode instead.
