High Speed Differe ntial Signaling for the

Sony® BRC-300 PTZ Camera

OVERVIEW

The Vaddio WallVIEW PRO 300 (Figure 1) is built around the Sony BRC-300 standard definition PTZ

Camera. The WallVIEW PRO 300 uses high speed differential signaling (HSDS), an active transmission system that delivers low-loss, high-quality video over Cat.

5 cabling distances up to 500 feet. The WallVIEW PRO

300 system is capable of standard definition (SD) resolutions in a variety of screen configurations to fit most monitors. The BRC-300 is offered in either NTSC

Figure 1:

WallVIEW PRO 300 System with Camera,

Wall Mount and EZIM (behind camera) or PAL formats.

The WallVIEW PRO system also has many new features, including a unique IR forwarding system which allows the user to forward IR commands from Sony® or Polycom® IR remote controls, through the WallVIEW system to a third party device, such as a videoconference codec (see Figure 2). Other new features include analog Y-C (S-Video) and composite outputs on BNC connectors, four position distance adjustment for Cat.

5 cabling, Y-Gain adjustment, and the EZ Interface Module (EZIM). Like all Vaddio WallVIEW systems, the

Thin Profile Wall Mount and mounting hardware is included.

INSTALLATION

All WallVIEW products are specifically designed for installation on a vertical wall surface with Cat. 5 cable connectivity for Power, Video and Control signaling. Installation is simplified in that no custom 8-Pin mini-din cables or expensive S-Video plenum cables are needed and no power outlets are required near the camera bracket. All cabling is routed to the head-end using Cat. 5 cables.

Before Installing

• Locate the camera mounting location paying close attention to camera viewing angles, lighting conditions, possible line of site obstructions, and checking for in-wall obstructions where the camera is to be mounted. Pick a mounting location to optimize the performance of the camera.

• Pre-wire all cabling as required (see wiring diagram examples).

• The Thin Profile Wall Mount for the WallVIEW 300 can be mounted directly to a 3-gang wall box or can be mounted to the drywall using four dry wall anchors.

Figure 2: Basic connectivity of the WallVIEW 300 System.

The WallVIEW PRO uses a Cat. 5 (all 4-pairs) for power to ensure the motors receive the required current to operate properly. The Video Cat. 5 uses 3-pairs of the Cat. 5 for Video and 1-pair for IR forwarding. The RS-

232 Cat. 5 uses 5 conductors for RS-232 with provision for daisy chain controllers. These Cat. 5 cables can be run up to 500’ (152.4m). See Appendix 1 for wiring and pin-out information.

Daisy Chain Control Configuration:

WallVIEW PRO 300

The WallVIEW PRO 300 has provisions for daisy chaining control signals when using an RS-232 controller with only one (1) RS-232 output. Each WallVIEW 300 EZIM has an RS-232 input and an RS-232 output

(Figure 3).

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1:

After determining the optimum location of the camera system, mark locations for the four screw holes and cable pass-thru (vertical oval). Install the drywall mounts and cut the hole for the cable pass-thru. At this point, do not install the Wall Mount.

Figure 4:

Thin Profile Wall Mount with oval cable feed-through hole.

Step 2:

The wall mount may be mounted directly to a 3-gang wall box or to drywall with the appropriate wall anchors.

Connect the 25-pin cable to the EZIM. Next, mount the EZIM and break out cable on the back of the wall mount, using the two tapped screw holes (see Figure 5).

Figure 5:

25-pin connector mounted to

EZIM (left) and EZIM mounted to the Wall Mount

(right)

Step 4:

Take the Wall Mount, with the EZIM and break out cable installed, and place it against the drywall anchors or

3-gang wall box, making sure to pull the Cat. 5 cables through the oval pass-through hole. Finger-tighten the screws down to the mount and confirm that the base is level. Tighten the screws down firmly. If the bracket is to be mounted on a 3-gang wall box, use the screws supplied with the electrical box.

Step 5:

Confirm that the Cat. 5 cables are terminated correctly, by testing them with a continuity tester. Next, connect the break out cables to the appropriate ports on the BRC-300 (VISCA IN cable is labeled). Secure the camera to the mount and using the ¼”-20 screw.

Step 6:

Connecting the Quick-Connect PRO. The Quick-Connect PRO is a 1-RU rack mount interface that breaks out the signals from the Cat. 5 cables back to the standard connectors. The basic system connectivity is illustrated below (Figure 6).

Step 6 (continued):

Attach the Cat. 5 cables for Power, Video and Control to the Quick-Connect PRO rack mount interface.

Connect the SD video outputs from the Quick-Connect Pro to your videoconference codec or other equipment. Connect the PowerRite 36 VDC power supply to the Quick-Connect PRO power input.

Note: Plugging the POWER Cat. 5 Cable into the wrong RJ-45 may cause damage to the camera system and void the warranty.

COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION:

Connect the Vaddio 36 VDC power supply to an AC outlet. Power will travel down the Power Cat. 5 cable to the cable shoe, powering the camera. The camera will “Home” to a centered position ready for control information from the provided IR Remote Commander or RS-232 Camera controller of the integrators’ choice.

To insure proper continuity of control and operation of the cameras, the RS-232 controller (control system or joystick) should be powered on after the camera.

Setting the IR Pass-Through Adjustment (optional)

The PRO system is capable of transmitting IR signal frequencies between 25 to 45 kHz. Connect the IR output from the Quick-Connect PRO to either the IR input on a third party device or a Xantech™ IR probe

(compatible models: 282MRP or 283M). See Figure 7 for terminating cable termination of the Xantech probe.

NOTE: Vaddio has tested compatibility of the IR forwarding with Sony, Vaddio, Polycom and TANDBERG remote controls.

NOTE: The IR Gain adjustment is factory set for distances below 300 feet (91.4 meters), and should not have to be adjusted unless the Cat. 5 cabling distance is over this length. For cable runs above 300 feet, slowly adjust the gain level up while pressing functions on the remote control, pointed at the 300 camera using the

WallVIEW PRO system. Once all remote control functions are operating from the remote, through the camera’s IR sensor, the IR gain is adjusted properly.
