Vaddio CeilingVIEW HD HideAway Overview:
Figure 1: Vaddio CeilingVIEW HD HideAway motorized camera lift system with a *Vaddio ClearVIEW HD-18AW Camera
*Camera not included
The Vaddio CeilingVIEW HD HideAway is a ceiling mounted motorized camera lift system that provides the ability
to quietly lower a Vaddio ClearVIEW HD PTZ camera from the ceiling, retract it back into the ceiling and
completely hide the camera. The CeilingVIEW HD HideAway enclosure presents a more aesthetically pleasing
solution for camera mounting when compared to exposed wall ceiling mounts. It provides a more secure mount
for the camera that helps deter tampering and camera theft and also provides meeting presenters and attendees
assurance of their privacy. They can see when the camera is retracted or hidden in the ceiling and when the
camera is no longer in use.
The CeilingVIEW HD HideAway has been designed to be installed in most suspended ceilings and attached to
the building structure. Choose any of Vaddio's WallVIEW HD-20/19/18 Short Range or DVI/HDMI Systems **.
The CeilingVIEW CCU Image Controller for CeilingVIEW HD-18 DocCAM can be used with a Vaddio HD-18 or
HD-20 Camera for the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway.
The CeilingVIEW HD HideAway Power Interface provides power, video and control over Cat. 5 cables from the
physical lift system to the head end. The motorized back box assembly, ceiling bridge mounting bracket and
ceiling trim ring offer an easy-to-install, high definition lift solution for any presentation room.
Overall, the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway is uniquely designed for applications such as classrooms, boardrooms,
conference rooms, auditoriums, videoconferencing, training facilities and distance-learning applications in which
security, assurance of privacy and aesthetics are room design requirements.
**Not compatible with Vaddio WallVIEW CCU versions or ClearVIEW "naked" versions.
Intended Use:
Before operating the device, please read the entire manual thoroughly. The system was designed, built and

STEP BY STEP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
The CeilingVIEW HD HideAway is a motorized lift system enclosure specifically designed for Vaddio HD Cameras
to be installed in a suspended acoustic ceiling tile. Recommended average room ceiling height range is between
8’ and 12’ (2.44m to 3.66m). It can also be used in larger group rooms, lecture halls or auditoriums depending on
the system design requirements.
Before Starting the Installation:
Before starting the installation of the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway, check above the ceiling where you plan to
install the motorized camera lift system and make sure the area is clear of obstructions and confirm that there
is adequate room for the motorized camera lift system enclosure. Verify that you have proper building
structure to attach the required seismic bracing cable and support cables for the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway.
All above ceiling work must conform to local building codes and should be performed by qualified perso nnel.
The motorized camera lift system back box and ceiling tile brace allow for superior flexibility and positioning
freedom when used with 2’x 2’ and 2’x 4’ ceiling tiles. The motorized camera lift system does not have to be
mounted in the center of the tile. The motorized camera lift system back box can be turned to position the
camera in four directions in the ceiling tile brace as well (see Figure 10). (Please review all installation
instructions prior to starting installation).
When terminating the Cat-5e cabling make sure that each cable is individually marked and tested at each end
for proper termination with a Cat-5e continuity tester.
Important Note: It is very important to set the IR Frequency in the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway to
match the IR Frequency of the Vaddio Camera in order to use the Vaddio IR Remote Commander.
The Vaddio IR Remote Commander can then be utilized to set the Upper and Lower Lift Stop
Settings in the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway and to provide PTZ Control/Power of the Vaddio HD
Camera.
STEP 1: Matching the IR Frequency of the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway and the Vaddio ClearVIEW HD
Camera:
A. Remove the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway Motorized Back Box Assembly from the shipping carton and
position it vertically on a suitable and safe work surface.
B. Remove the nine (9) Philli ps screws from the Front Access Panel and remove the panel.
Note: There is a safety interlock switch on the upper left side of the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway Back Box
Assembly that will not allow operation of the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway with the Front Access Panel
removed.
C. Matching the IR Frequency: There are three (3) IR frequency settings for all Vaddio ClearVIEW HD
Cameras. They are referred to as Camera 1, 2 or 3 on the Vaddio IR Remote Commander. The IR
settings are set by dip switch settings on both the Vaddio HD Camera and the CeilingVIEW HD
HideAway.
Setting the Dip Switches on the Main Printed Circuit Board in the CeilingVIEW HD HideA way:
The Main Printed Circuit Board (PCBA) is located on the left inside panel of the CeilingVIEW HD
HideAway. The Dip Switches are located on the lower side of the board and faces the Front Access
Panel (see Figure 3).

**CeilingVIEW HD HideAway IR Settings: The dip switches are vertically mounted on the Main Circuit Board (PCBA). The
switches are set to the Right or Left (see Figure 3).
***IR OUT OFF: This dip switch is UP when using the Vaddio IR Remote Commander. This switch should be down if IR Forwarding
is used or if the Vaddio IR Remote Commander will not be used. Note: If the dip switch is set to DN it will disable the IR receiver in
the Vaddio Camera. The Vaddio Camera will not respond to the Vaddio IR Remote Commander.
STEP 2: Assembly and Installation Instructions for Suspended Acoustic Tile Ceilings:
A. Determine the desired location, distance and centering of the camera for your installation.
B. Check above the ceiling where you plan to install the motorized lift system and verify that the area is clear of
obstructions and confirm that there is adequate room for the motorized lift system enclosure. Verify that
you have proper building structure to attach the required support cables for the enclosure.
Warning: Do not install the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway in an y suspende d aco ustic tile ceiling without support
cables! The support cables must be properly attached to the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway and to building
structure. Verif
our installation conforms to all applicable local building codes with local officials!
C. Remove the suspended ceiling tile that is to be used to install the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway from the ceiling
grid.
D. Place the suspended ceiling tile on a suitable and safe work surface.
E. Position the Ceiling Tile Brace on the top of the suspended ceiling tile to be used for installation. The Ceiling
Tile Brace can be located in most any place (horizontally on the tile) from one end of the ceiling tile to the
opposite end; it does not have to be centered in the middle of the tile. However, verify that the Ceiling Trim Ring
will fit within the surface of the tile and not cover the suspended ceiling grid.
Note: The Ceiling Tile Brace is designed to lie across the tile in a 2 ft. direction only.

F. When the Ceiling Tile Brace has been placed in the desired position, trace the outline of the center opening
of the Ceiling Tile Brace on the suspended ceiling tile (see Figure 5).
G. Using a sharp utility knife, score the marked outline on the suspended ceiling tile. Carefully cut out the
marked outline. Note: When cutting out the opening, cut out each of the four (4) corners of the outline to
make the opening square (see Figure 6).
H. Re-install the suspended ceiling tile that has the cutout opening back into the ceiling grid. Place the Ceiling
Tile Brace on top of the tile and align it to the cutout opening (see Figure 7).
I. Provide and install four (4) individual support cables for connection to the Ceiling Tile Brace (see Figure 12)
Attach each of the support cables for the CeilingVIEW HD HideAway System to the appropriate building
structure support. Note: The photo examples (see Figures 12 and 13) show the use of cable clamps to
secure the cable to the ceiling structure and the turnbuckles.
Note: Use of a turnbuckle for each of the four (4) individual support cables is highly recommended and will
make it easier to adjust the cable tension on the Ceiling Tile Brace.
J. Attach the four-individual support cables to the Ceiling Tile Brace utilizing the provided holes in the four (4)
outer corners of the Ceiling Tile Brace (see Figure 13).
K. Install the turnbuckles on each of the four (4) corners of the Ceiling Tile Brace. Tighten each cable to
provide equal tension to support the Ceiling Tile Brace (without lifting the Ceiling Tile Brace off of the ceiling
tile) and secure each of the four (4) cables.
