WALLVIEW™ CCU HD1 WITH HSDS™
Vaddio™ Quick-Connect™ CCU for
the Sony® EVI-HD1 PTZ Camera
OVERVIEW
The Vaddio WallVIEW Quick-Connect CCU (Figure 1) is built
around the Sony EVI-HD1 high definition PTZ Camera. The
WallVIEW Quick-Connect CCU HD1 allows the user to control
the color output of the camera’s image sensor, through both
Red and Blue Gain knobs, as well as Iris and Gain levels and
Aperture, to provide a higher quality image. The system 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
Quick-Connect CCU HD1 system is capable of high definition
(HD) or standard definition (SD) resolutions in a variety of
screen configurations to fit most monitors. The EVI-HD1 is
capable of either NTSC or PAL formats.
Other features on the CCU include the ability to store settings on two discrete Scene buttons, and buttons for
Auto White Balance, One Push White Balance and Auto Iris. Like all Vaddio WallVIEW systems, the wall
mount and mounting hardware is included.

Figure 2: The Quick-Connect CCU System uses a Cat. 5 (all 4-pairs) for power to ensure the motors receive the required
current to operate properly. The Video Cat. 5 cable uses all four pairs for video. The RS-232 Cat. 5 provides communication
to the camera for CCU and PTZ control and G/L (where applicable) to the camera. These Cat. 5 cables can be run up to 500’
(152.4m). See Appendix 1 for wiring and pin-out information. NOTE: A direct RS-232 Cat. 5 cable is required for each
uick-Connect CCU and camera. Daisy-Chain configurations are not supported.

WallVIEW CCU HD1
Quick-Connect CCU Front Panel Controls (left to right):
Tally Light:
The blue LED tally light on the front panel is tied to the tally contacts on the rear panel allowing the user to
easily track which camera interface is being used in a multi-camera system by supplying a simple contact
closure (i.e. from ProductionVIEW Super Joystick or ProductionVIEW HD).
LCD Display:
Backlit (blue) display indicates which mode is active (CCU CONTROL or PTZ CONTROL) and the value of
the parameter being adjusted. In CCU CONTROL mode, when a rotary encoder is touched, the name of the
control being actuated and the value of that assigned parameter will be displayed.
CCU Control Switch:
Backlit (blue) SPDT switch, lit when activated, blocks the incoming PTZ controls on the RS-232 input and
allows the end user to make adjustments to the camera image characteristics. When off or deactivated, PTZ
information is throughput to the camera and the front panel controls of the QCCU are deactivated to avoid a
control issue or latency created by a master control string filtering program.
Scene A and B:
Two camera adjustment scenes (A & B) can be stored into microprocessor memory. When lit (backlit blue
SPDT switch), the scene is activated. To store a scene, the user adjusts the camera to taste and touches
and holds the scene button down until the button blinks.
Red Gain Control:
The Red Gain encoder adjusts the red gain of the signal when AWB is disengaged.
Blue Gain Control:
The Blue Gain encoder adjusts the blue gain of the signal when AWB is disengaged.
AWB:
The Automatic White Balance controls/adjusts the color levels automatically when engaged. Turn off AWB
to manually adjust the Red and Blue levels.
OPWB:
One-Push White Balance control allows the user to set the white balance with one push (the camera must
see 60% of the image as white in order to operate). OPWB overrides AWB and Red/Blue controls when
activated.
Aperture:
The Aperture control sharpens the image and adds detail to the edges of objects in the frame. When text is
the subject matter, the Aperture control can help sharpen the image.
Auto Iris:
The Auto Iris mode automatically adjusts the iris and gain of the camera. To manually adjust the iris or gain,
turn off this control.
Manual Iris:
The manual iris control allows the user to set the iris manual to one of the 18 settings available.
Gain:
The Gain control adjusts the overall gain of the camera. To manually adjust the gain Auto Iris must be off.
Unused Rotary Encoders:
There are three (3) unused encoders on the front panel for the EVI-HD1 and BRC-300 PTZ cameras.

Power Supply Input:
36V 2.78 Amp power supply on a 5.5mm OD x 2.5mm ID connector.
Power on RJ-45:
Power is provided on a Cat. 5 cable to EZIM CCU.
RS-232 IN on RJ-45:
RS-232 Input from ProductionVIEW or PTZ controller. Daisy Chain control is not supported.
RS-232 OUT / G/L Out on RJ-45:
RS-232 and G/L outputs on Cat. 5 provide control and sync to the EZIM CCU.
Tally on 2-pin Phoenix type connector:
Contact Closure lights LED on front panel allowing indication of which QCCU/camera combination is active in
a multi-camera/QCCU installation. A VISCA tally command will also be sent to the camera to illuminate the
LED on the cameras that have on-board tally lights (BRC Series cameras).
G/L Input on BNC-F:
For use with black burst generators to externally sync the cameras. This input is transmitted through a
differential amplifier to a receiver at the EZIM CCU. The G/L gain adjustment is on the EZIM CCU or the
receive side of the signal. NOTE: This feature is not applicable with the EVI-HD1.
Camera Feature Switches:
The QCCU interface has an 8-position dip switch on the rear panel to allow future functionality. All switches
should be in the down position.
Y-Gain:
Adjusts Y-Gain and allows the user to fine tune the video signal especially over longer cable lengths. Adjust
to taste and system requirements.
Distance:
Distance Adjustments for Cat. 5 cable (<100’, 200’, 300’, 400’+) equalizes the length of the twisted pairs for
improved video performance.
Video Outputs:
Four Video Signals at any one time can be transmitted from the EZIM CCU concurrently allowing the CCU
system to return HD and SD (composite video on cameras with simultaneous outputs, such as the BRCZ700) at the same time.
Connector Labels and Supported Video Signals
Y/Y: Y of YPbPr - or - Y (luminance) of Y/C on BNC-F connector
PB/C: PB of YPbPr - or - C (chrominance) of Y/C on BNC-F connector
PR: PR of YPbPr only on BNC-F connector
COMP: Composite (CVBS) Video on BNC-F connector (in SD mode only with HD1)
Video RJ-45
Return of the camera’s four (4) video signals from the EZIM CCU to the QCCU on Cat. 5 cable.
