Overview:
The Vaddio ClearVIEW HD-20 high definition integrated robotic
PTZ camera features a 20X optical zoom lens and is built around a
6.49mm diagonal (1/2.8 Type) high-speed CMOS image sensor
with a total of 3.27M pixels for truly precise and clean HD video
image acquisition.
Up to now, CMOS image sensors were light hungry and less clear
than CCD image sensor technology. But in order to get a
1920x1080 high definition signal out of the CCD sensor, extra
signal processing and scaling was required to produce signals at
those resolutions. Using an increased pixel aperture size, high
frame rate, high signal to noise, column-parallel A/D conversion
method, the resolution, saturation and the sensitivity of the sensor
are increased. The HD-20 achieves improved picture quality even
in low light environments requiring a minimum illumination of just
1.6 LUX.
The HD-20 is smaller and more compact than the preceding ClearVIEW HD-18, and as important aside, the HD20, does not replace the HD-18, but instead complements it, adding to the breadth and depth of the Vaddio
camera product line. Significant improvements include a 20X, 11-element glass, motorized zoom lens, slip-clutch
system and the new rugged platinum-metallic silver color.
Pan range is +170 to -170 degrees, and Tilt range is -30 to +90 degrees. The camera is also invertible for ceilingmount applications. A variety of accessories are available, allowing the camera to be installed in a variety of
projects
The HD-20 outputs HD video in both analog component (YPbPr) and HDMI formats in resolutions of 1080/60i,
1080/50i, 720/60p, 720/50p 1080/30p and 1080/25p. The HD-20 is an exceptional camera for a wide range of HD
video applications such as houses of worship, corporate boardrooms, live events and distance-learning.
Intended Use:
Before operating the device, please read the entire manual thoroughly. The system was designed, built and
tested for use indoors, and with the provided power supply and cabling. The use of a power supply other than the
one provided or outdoor operation has not been tested and could damage the device and/or create a potentially
unsafe operating condition.
Important Safeguards:
Read and understand all instructions before using. Do not operate any device if it has been dropped or damaged.
In this case, a Vaddio technician must examine the product before operating. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not immerse in water or other liquids and avoid extremely humid conditions.
Use only the power supply provided with the system. Use of any
unauthorized power supply will void any and all warranties.
Save These Instructions:
The information contained in this manual will help you install and operate your product. If these instructions are
misplaced, Vaddio keeps copies of Specifications, Installation and User Guides and most pertinent product
drawings for the Vaddio product line on the Vaddio website. These documents can be downloaded from
www.vaddio.com free of charge.
Please do not use “pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors. These pass-thru type connectors do not
work well for professional installations and can be the cause of intermitten t connections which
can result in the RS-232 control line failing and locking up, and/ or compromising the HSDS™
signals. For best results please use standard RJ-45 connectors and test all cables for proper
in-outs prior to use and connection to Vaddio product.
