This section describes how to turn the Video 
Communication System on and off.
Before turning the system on, make sure that system 
connections have been completed correctly.

For information on connecting the system, see the section 
“System Connections” on page 15.

The system is equipped with a lens cover to hide the 
camera. Before starting a videoconference, open the lens 
cover by sliding the lever for lens cover on the top of the 
system to the right. If the lens cover is closed, the picture 
on the local site will not be seen on the remote site.

Press the 

 (Power) switch on the PCS-TL33.

The indicator of the switch lights up in orange and power 
to the Video Communication System comes on. When 
powering on is complete, the indicator lights up in green.
The launcher menu appears on the display and the picture 
of the local camera is also shown.

When the lens cover is closed, the launcher menu appears 
as follows.

• The first time the power switch is pressed after the power 

cord is plugged into a wall outlet, it may take as long as ten 
seconds for the indicator on the switch to light up.

• When you turn on power to the Video Communication 

System for the first time after installation, the setup wizard 
will appear. Set up your system following the wizard.

• When an optional device especially designed for use with 

this system, such as the Data Solution Module, is connected 
for the first time, the Video Communication System may 
automatically upgrade the software of the connected device. 
While the upgrading message is displayed, be sure not to 
turn off the Video Communication System. Doing so may 
cause malfunction of the system. System malfunction may 
also occur when a system power-off has been caused by an 

Lever for lens cover
