• Camera tracking temporarily stops when you mute the HDX system. It
resumes when you unmute the HDX system.
Setting the Tracking Mode
1 Do one of the following:
— From the local interface, go to System > Admin Settings > Cameras >
Camera Tracking Settings.
— From the web interface, go to Admin Settings > Cameras.
2 Select the preferred tracking mode from the Tracking Mode menu:
—Voice: This is the default tracking mode. In this mode, the camera
automatically tracks the current speaker in the room using a voice
tracking algorithm.
When you select the Voice Tracking Mode, you can also choose the
Tracking Speed. This speed determines how quickly the camera
moves to each person who speaks. The default speed is Normal.
If voice tracking does not work as expected, make sure the
microphones are functioning properly. For ways to test microphone
functionality, refer to the Camera Audio Meter setting on page 11-6.
—Off: In this mode, the tracking function is disabled. You must
manually move the camera using the remote control or the Polycom
Touch Control.
Configuring Advanced Camera Settings
You can use the system’s web interface to configure or restore the following
Polycom EagleEye HD camera settings:
• Brightness
• Black Level
• Color Saturation
You can also use the system’s web interface to configure or restore the White
Balance setting for the Polycom EagleEye HD, Polycom EagleEye View, and
Polycom EagleEye Director.
Tracking performance can be affected by room lighting. If the room is too bright for
camera tracking to work properly, you can improve the tracking performance by
adjusting the Backlight Compensation setting on the Cameras screen. To find this
setting in the local interface, go to System > Admin Settings > Cameras >
Camera Settings. In the web interface, you can go to Admin Settings > Cameras
> Camera Settings.
