Setting Up this Device

Connect the cables as detailed in the diagram overleaf, then follow the steps below to complete the setup of the Avaya
Scopia XT Advanced Camera. For details on how to use the system after setup, see the User Guide and Deployment
Guide for Scopia XT Series.

NOTE: The Avaya Scopia XT Advanced camera cannot be cascaded to an Avaya Scopia XT Premium Camera.
Thus, if used as second camera with XT7000 Series (connected to the second HDMI or to XT Camera Switch) or with
XT5000 Series (connected to DVI or to XT Camera Switch), and Premium Camera is the main camera, XT Advanced
Camera must be controlled with its own remote control, and not from the remote control of Scopia XT endpoint.

Step 1

Connect the HDMI and power + control connectors to
the endpoint back panel.

1. Use Advanced Camera as

main camera

Step 2

Connect the DVI, power, serial control cable
respectively to DVI, power and VISCA in connectors
of the camera.

Step 3

Check that the System Select switch on back
panel of the camera is set to “7”.

Step 4

If the camera is mounted upside down on the ceiling,
set “ON” the image FLIP selector on the back panel.

Step 1

Connect the optional Advanced Camera to the DVI
input of the Codec Unit. If camera will be controlled
using its own remote control, go to step 4.

Step 2

Connect the VISCA control cross cable between the
main Camera and the optional camera.

Step 3

Check that the System Select switch on back panel
of the camera is set to “7”.

Step 4

to the mains, then switch on the Codec Unit.

“IO connections –> cameras” as explained in the

VISCA Cable

VISCA Control is a standard protocol to control
PTZ Cameras.

You may buy a VISCA cross cable from a third
party or make you own cable if you’re planning
to position the optional camera far away from the
Codec Unit.

The VISCA cross cable is an 8-pin mini-DIN male to
mini-DIN male cable with below Pinout diagram

Cascading different camera models with VISCA daisy chain may yield wrong camera behavior.
