The amazing ClearVIEW HD-20

QCCU S

YSTEM

HD PTZ Camera quite literally combines all of the best features of the ClearVIEW HD18, HD-19 and HD-20 HD PTZ cameras into ONE! The innovation of the HD-18 EZCamera™ Cat-5 interfaces, the low light capability of the HD-19 and the FULL HD performance of

ClearVIEW HD-20

Black

the HD-20 are all represented, and improved upon with the ClearVIEW HD-20

The ClearVIEW HD-20

is clearly the

SE.

best ClearVIEW ever, and here’s why.

The HD-20

is a native 1080p/60 camera using the latest 1/2.8-Type Exmor® high-speed, low noise CMOS image sensor technology with 2.38 Megapixels (total) and 2.14 Megapixels (effective). The ISP (image signal processor) is off-the-hook, not only providing fast, razor-sharp auto-focus routines with incredible detail, realistic textures and vivid colors, it also has an impressive low-light performance of 0.3 Lux (color) and 0.03 Lux (B/W). The lens is a 20X optical zoom multi-element glass lens with an impressive horizontal field of view of 63° on the wide end to 3.47° on the tele end. The outputs are simultaneous HDMI, YPbPr and HSDS™ (differential video for use with Quick-

ClearVIEW

HD-20

Arctic White

(AW)

Connect™ Interfaces) and supports both drop frame and nondrop frame HD video resolutions of 1080p/60/59.94/50/30/25, 1080i/60/59.94/50 and 720p/60/59.94/50.

Quick-Connect Universal CCU

So to recap, latest technology, awesome ISP, superb low-light performance, powerful yet wide angle lens, lots and lots of video outs, drop and non-drop frame video, Full HD and there’s more!

The QCCU System pairs up the HD-20

with Quick-Connect Universal CCU and uses HSDS™ (high speed differential signaling), an active video transmission system, to deliver high quality HD video over standard Cat-5 cabling up to 500’ (152.4m) with virtually no loss in video quality and no latency. One of the m ost flexible attributes the Universal CCU is at the outputs. It has HD-SDI (yep, 3 Gb/s single link HD-SDI for up to 1080p/60 resolution), HDMI and HD Analog component (YPbPr) outputs, all of which can be used concurrently (at the same resolution). The back-lit blue LED screen displays up to eight (8) parameters at a time, as well as the camera’s model number so the interrelationship of the controls is easily and quickly read and understood. The Universal CCU allows the user to adjust Red and Blue Gain, OPWB, Iris functions, Chroma, Brightness, Detail, Gamma and Gain on allowing the camera to deliver a more accurate representation of the captured image’s color. Other added advantages include the ability to color match and shade cameras in a multi-camera installation.

The ClearVIEW HD-20

QCCU system is an exceptional value and a remarkable package for even the most demanding HD video applications including House of Worship productions, pro A/V system integration, distance learning classrooms, live events, IMAG systems, UCC applications, videoconferencing, distance learning and lecture capture. To top it all off, the cameras are available in black or arctic white and are made in the USA.

Intended Use:

Before operating the device, please read the entire manual thoroughly. The system was designed, built and tested for use indoors with the power supply provided. 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 drop ped o r damage d. 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.

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 intermittent connec tions which can result in the RS-232 control line failing and locking up, and/or compromising the H SDS (high s peed differe ntial) si gnals. For best results please use standard RJ-45 connectors and test all cables for proper pin-outs prior to use and connection to Vaddio

roduct.

VIEW HD-20SE:

The ClearVIEW HD-20SE was designed to be a high quality camera that is very easy to use and operate. There is

documentation at the back of this manual for pin-outs of the connectors on the ClearVIEW HD-20

camera.

Step 1: Using the HD VIDEO SELECT rotary switch and CAMERA SETTINGS dip switches on the back of the camera, set up the camera’s output resolution and functional preferences. There is a label on the bottom of the camera that identifies the choices.

Important Dip Switch Note: Setting all dip switches down and power cycling the camera will load the factory default camera settings. For the first time set-up, loading the defaults may be a good idea

a. Set the desired and available HD output resolution for the camera with the Rotary Switch. b. Set the IR frequency of the camera if it is to respond to the IR remote control. c. If using the IR forwarding feature, set the IR OUT switch to ON (SW3). d. Set the Baud Rate dip switch (SW4) to 9600bps for most applications. Default for Vaddio EZCamera Cabling

Systems is 9600bps. e. To set the HDMI or DVI color space, use dip switch 7 (SW7). f. If inverting the camera, turn the IMAGE FLIP ON (SW8).

Dip Switch Settings Explained:

 IR 1 & 2: The IR remote has the capability of operating up to three different PTZ cameras from one remote.

Use the selector buttons at the top of the IR remote to select the frequency.  IR Out 3: The IR output is sent out on the RS-232 RJ-45 jack on the back of the camera. Turning on the IR

output will allow IR signals to be transmitted over the Cat-5 cable to the head end. When using RS-232 control

or Vaddio CCU controllers (also via RS-232), turn the IR OUT to OFF (up).

 Baud Rate 4: The options for baud rate are either 9600 bps or 38,400 bps.  HDMI Color or sRGB Color space 7: Default is YCbCr. Use sRGB color space with olde r DVI-D 1.0 monitors

only. The YCbCr color space works for HDMI digital video.

 Image Flip 8: To invert the HD-20, turn the IMAGE FLIP ON (switch down).  Switches 5, 6, 9 and 10: Leave up - or in the OFF position.

CCU

The Universal CCU will automatically sense the connected camera and initialize the firmware for that camera. The next section will look at the controls and how they are laid out for easy access.

Image: Front Panel CCU Controls

Front Panel Controls (left to right):

 5-Line Blue Back-lit LED: Displays up to 8 parameters at a time so the interrelationship of the controls can

easily and quickly be read and understood.  Tally Light: A contact closure on the back panel lights the blue LED on front panel indicating which Universal

CCU and camera combination is the live Program in a multi-camera CCU installation. A tally command will

also be sent to the camera via RS-232 to light the LED on cameras with on-board tally lights

Image: Close up View of the Universal CCU Control Panel

Keypad Controls from (left to right): Touch the button for the parameter to be controlled an d adjust the value

with the rotary encoder, then touch the cancel button to exit. When the rotary encoder button is touched, the SELECT and CANCEL menu buttons will illuminate to remind the user to either…select or cancel.

 Scenes A, B & C: Three user definable camera scenes (A, B & C) can be stored into micropro cessor memory.

When lit (backlit blue button), the scene is activated. To store a scene, the user adjusts the controls and touches

and holds the scene button down until the button blinks. To erase a scene press and hold the scene button

and the cancel button.  Auto White Balance: The Automatic White Balance controls/adjusts the color levels automatically when

engaged. Take it out of Auto to manually adjust the Red and Blue levels.  OPWB (One Push White Balance): When using OPWB, zoom in on a white subject, at least 60% of the image

must be white, touch the OPWB button and the coloration of the image will adjust to the white used in this shot.  Red & Blue Gain Controls: The Red and Blue Gain buttons in combination with the encoder adjust the red

and blue gain of the signal when Auto White Balance is disengaged.

 Chroma: Chroma controls the overall color of the image being captured.  Bright: This is the overall luminance control for the image.  Gamma: Gamma adjusts the overall brightness of an image to compensate for the perception of luminance

and chroma.

 Detail: The Detail control sharpens or softens objects in the frame. Works well when looking at text.  IRIS - Auto or Manual: The Auto Iris mode automatically adjusts the iris and gain of the camera. To m anually

adjust the iris or gain, turn off this control. The Manual Iris control allows the user to set the iris manually to one

of the several settings available  Gain: The Gain control boosts the signal level when the iris is open all the way, and there is not enough lig hting

available. To manually adjust the Gain, Auto Iris must be off. Use the Gain last to enhance the image.  Rotary Encoder: Use the encoder to adjust values after the button is selected. This makes for very quick

changes.  The Menu Buttons: There are other screens to be accessed other than the camera control screen. Use the

SELECT and CANCEL to enter other controls and exit other menus.

Image: Rear Panel CCU Connections and Controls (left to right)

 Power Supply Input: The Universal CCU uses a 36VDC, 2.78 Amp power supply on a 5.5mm OD x 2.5mm

ID coaxial connector with a positive center.  36 VDC to Camera - RED RJ-45: Power is provided on a Cat-5 cable to the RoboSHOT 36 VDC RJ-45 marked

for CCU use only (see page 9). The power is regulated in the camera to 12 VDC.  RS-232 IN - GREY RJ-45: RS-232 Input from ProductionVIEW™ console, Precision Camera Controller or

other custom camera control system. Daisy Chain topology is not supported.

 RS-232 to Camera - BLUE RJ-45: RS-232 control is sent through this Cat-5 connection.  Tally on 2-pin Molex 5.0mm Euro-Style connector: A contact closure lights the blue LED on front panel

showing which Universal CCU and camera combination is the live Program in a multi-camera CCU installation.

A tally command will also be sent to the camera via RS-232 to illuminate the LED on the cameras that have on-

board tally lights.  Camera Feature Switches: The CCU interface has an 8-position dip switch on the rear panel to allow for

certain functionality. All switches should be in the down position for default.

 Dip Switch 1: Put up to allow Scene A to load upon start-up or boot up.

 Dip Switch 5: Put up to access LCD Display Menu settings including Display Mode, Bias and Contra st.

 Video from Camera -

RJ-45: The yellow RJ-45 receives the camera’s differential video signals from

the RoboSHOT’s EZ-POWER VIDEO jack (but there’s no power on the cable).  HD Video Outputs: The Universal CCU has 3 (three) simultaneous video output formats that are the same

resolution as the video inputs providing the ultimate in connectivity flexibility. The output formats include:

 HD YPbPr on DE-15-F (HD15) - (supports up to/and including 1080p/60 - not limited)  HDMI on HDMI-F (supports up to and including 1080p/60)  HD-SDI on Edge Mount Carrier Class, Gold BNC-F (supports 3Gb/s Single Link 1080p/60 HD-SDI)

Big Important Note: The Quick-Connect Universal CCU supports the resolution s with frame rates of above 50 Hz (60, 59.94 and 50). Consequently, the 30, 29.97 and 25 fps from the Vaddio cameras are not supported

The EZIM (EZ Interface Module) HD-Series Slot Card

The EZIM Slot Card fits into the slot in the base of the HD-20

and terminates the Power (red) Cat-5 cable and

the Video (yellow) Cat-5 cable to the camera (see colors above).
