VERVIEW
The impressive RoboSHOT HD PTZ cameras are professional quality with very high quality imaging, fine detail and exceptional color reproduction. This camera offers integrators, dealers and end users an incredible improvement over other conferencing and large venue cameras available today. The RoboSHOT Platform consists of two models; the RoboSHOT 12 and the RoboSHOT 30.
The RoboSHOT 12 is perfect for small to medium sized conference rooms. This model features a 12X optical zoom and a 73° wide angle horizontal field of view, which provides incomparable support for applications including UCC Applications, videoconferencing, distance learning, lecture capture, telepresence and more!
The RoboSHOT 30 camera performs brilliantly in medium to large

rooms. It features a 30X optical zoom with an impressive 2.3° tele end to 65° wide end horizontal field of view and provides exceptional support for applications including House of Worship productions, large auditorium A/V systems, large distance learning classrooms, live event theatres with IMAG systems, large lecture theatres with lecture capture and more!
The key features of both RoboSHOT cameras are Tri-Synchronous Multi-Axis Motion and the Advanced Image Sensor, lens and ISP (image signal processor) combination. The Tri-Synchronous Motion algorithm in the RoboSHOT cameras is capable of moving all three (pan, tilt and zoom) axes simultaneously. The algorithm calculates the position and velocity of the smooth, direct-drive motor movements between the presets so pan, tilt and zoom arrive at the preset subject simultaneously, which finally allows for smooth and manageable on-air camera movements. Yep, there’s no more pan/tilt, then zoom like other PTZ cameras available today.
RoboSHOT 30
HD PTZ Camera on Mount
The lens, image sensor and ISP are the real magic behind the
uick-Connect SR interface
RoboSHOT’s remarkable video performance characteristics. Both cameras use the latest generation Exmor® 1/2.8”, 2.34 Megapixel, Full HD (1080p/60) high-speed, low noise CMOS image sensor combined with a new ISP, produces vivid, realistic and accurate color with extremely fast, razor sharp automatic focus and auto iris routines.
The RoboSHOT platform, paired with the Quick-Connect SR interface, uses the Vaddio EZCamera™ Cat-5 Cable System to transport HSDS™ (differential video), power and control to and from the camera over Cat-5 cables. The QSR system has a single analog component YPbPr output that outputs video resolutions up to and including 1080p/60 and is not limited to 1080i/59.94. The market proven Quick-Connect™ Interfaces immediately provide integrators with the ultimate in camera configuration flexibility.
All RoboSHOT’s are equipped with an Ethernet port and a built-in web server, which allows the user to control the camera functions on an internal web page with a browser from anywhere in the world, or in the same room, over the IP network. Telnet, IR Remote and RS-232 control for the camera are available to satisfy almost any system control requirements.
The RoboSHOT cameras were designed for the times and represent a new era in specifying and integrating professional quality cameras into A/V and conferencing system configurations. In short, it has never been easier to integrate cameras into any environment than with the RoboSHOT HD Cameras.

UICK-CONNECT SR INTERFACE
Image: Rear Panel with Feature Call-outs
1) Power Input:
5.5mm OD x 2.5mm ID coaxial connector for the provided 24 VDC, 2.0 Amp switching power supply.
2) EZ-POWER VIDEO (Color Coded Orange):
A single Cat-5 connection between the EZCAMERA POWER & HD VIDEO RJ-45 connector and the camera’s EZ Power HD Video Port on the HD-19 camera extends power and video. Power is fed to the camera and HSDS video is returned from the camera on the same Cat-5.
3) HD VIDEO OUTPUT:
DE-15 connector outputs the YPbPr analog component HD video, which was extended from the camera over Cat­5 cable. SD video resolutions (Y/C and CVBS formats) are not supported by the Quick-Connect SR Interface, however analog component SD (high fps format - 480p/59.94 and 576p/50) video is supported.
4) IR OUTPUT:
With the IR pass-thru turned ON (see camera DIP switch settings), IR from third-party IR remote controls can be sent through the camera to third-party equipment, such as hardware videoconferencing codecs. IR can be used as either modulated (through the air) or non-modulated (wired) signals.
5) RS-232 INPUT & OUTPUT:
These RJ-45 connectors allow an external controller (watch for upcoming shameless plug) like the ProductionVIEW™ Precision Camera Controller to route through the Quick-Connect SR for ease of cable routing. The INPUT is color coded grey and the OUT TO CAMERA in color coded blue.

NSTALLATION
Choose a camera mounting location while paying close attention to camera viewing angles, lighting conditions,
possible line of site obstructions, and checking for in-wall obstructions where the camera is to be mounted.
Always pick a mounting location that will optimize the performance of the camera.
The included RoboSHOT wall mount can be mounted directly to a 2-gang wall box or can be mounted to the
wall using dry wall anchors.
RS-232 Cabling Notes:
For RS-232 cabling, use a standard Cat-5 (if you can still find Cat-5) or Cat-5e/6 cable with real RJ-45 connectors (568B termination) from the RS-232 port on the back of the Quick-Connect interface to the camera’s RS-232 Port. If the camera is connected to a third-party control system (such as AMX or Crestron), a DE-9F (also called a DB­9F in some circles) to RJ-45F control adapter is supplied.
More Notes: Use of pass-thru type RJ-45 connectors is highly discouraged. The Vaddio Cat-5 wiring
standard uses pins 1, 2, 7 and 8 on both the power/video and the control Cat-5e cables. The pass-through connectors have proven to provide insufficient connectivity for these important signals. They are OK for voice and data that use the center pins only, but not for cabling systems that use all the pins.

Setting the RoboSHOT Switch Gear:
- Set the desired and available HD output resolution for the camera with the Rotary Switch.
- Set the IR control frequency of the camera if it is to respond to the IR remote control.
- If using the IR forwarding features with a 3
rd
party codec remote, set the IR OUT switch to ON (SW3).
- If inverting the camera, turn the IMAGE FLIP ON (SW4).
- For the RoboSHOT 12X model only, set the Super-wide mode to ON for a 12X, 73º horizontal super-wide
angle of view. Normal mode will produce 67.2º horizontal field of view (HFOV). The RoboSHOT 30 does not have a Super Wide mode.
- Set the Baud Rate DIP switch (SW6) to 9600bps for most applications. Default is 9600 bps systems.
- Setting all DIP switches DOWN with a power cycle loads the default camera settings. Return DIPs to
desired operating position after power cycle
Note: Switches 7 & 8 are reserved for future use.
DIP Switch Settings Further Explained (DSSFE):
IR 1, 2 and 3 (SW 1 &2): A single IR remote has the capability of operating up to three different PTZ cameras
in a room. Use these selector DIP switches and the selector buttons at the top of the IR remote to select the
frequency.
IR OUT on/off (SW3): 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 RS­232 control or Vaddio CCU controllers (also via RS-232), turn the IR OUT to OFF (up).
Image Flip (SW4): To invert the camera, turn the IMAGE FLIP ON (switch down).
Super-Wide Mode: Super-wide works only with the RoboSHOT 12 model and allows the camera to switch
from 67.3º wide end HFOV to a Super Wide 73º wide end HFOV.
Baud Rate (SW6): The options for baud rate are either 9600 or 38,400 bps. The 9600 bps works best with
Cat-5e over distance. Use 38,400 bps for short control lines only.
DIP Switches (SW7 & 8): Not used for operation, please leave these DIP switches up or in the OFF position.

RoboSHOT HD Cameras
Installation Basics:
The RoboSHOT cameras include a Thin Profile Wall Mount for…wall mounting the camera. There are options for IN-Wall™ mounts and IN-Ceiling™ Half-Recessed as well. The Cat-5 cabling ideology is especially convenient for camera mounting when the camera location is not anywhere near an AC outlet. Installation is simplified in that no custom 8-Pin mini-din cables or expensive plenum coax cables or multi-pin cables or power outlets are required near the camera location. All Cat-5 cabling is routed to the head-end using with standard straight through RJ-45 connectors
(568B termination). “Pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors should be avoided, like using a ladder for
a pommel horse, which should be avoided too.
Determine Camera Mount Location and Mount
After determining the optimum location of the camera system, route the required Cat-5e cables from the camera to the head-end Quick-Connect. Test and mark the Cat-5e cables: EZ-POWER VIDEO and RS-232.
The Cat-5e cables should feed-through the cable management slots provided by all Vaddio mounting options. If the wall mount is to be mounted on a 2-gang wall
Use a level to level the mount…
box, use the screws supplied with the wall box cover plate to attach the Thin Profile Wall Mount Bracket. If mounting to drywall with wall anchors, use the four (4) quality wall anchors and screws provided.
The mounting holes are slotted and are 90° opposing to provide easy leveling. Level the mount and place the camera on the mount. Connect the marked and tested Cat-5e cables to the appropriate RJ-45 jacks. Check the level again to avoid any of those weird Batman camera angles. Use the provided ¼”-20 x .375 mounting screw to attach the Camera to the mount.
System Wiring
Follow the sample wiring diagram (page 11) for connecting the Cat-5e cables to the camera and Quick-Connect Interface. Additional diagrams are available on the Vaddio website.
Connect the camera side as follows:
Connect the EZ-POWER VIDEO Cat-5e to the EZ-POWER VIDEO RJ-45 connector on the RoboSHOT.  Connect the RS-232 control Cat-5e to the RS-232 RJ-45 on the RoboSHOT camera.
Connect the Quick-Connect side (at the head end) as follows:
With the Quick Connect USB not powered-up.
Connect the RS-232 Cat-5e cable to the RS-232.  Connect the EZ-POWER VIDEO Cat-5e to the EZ-POWER VIDEO RJ-45 connector on the Quick-Connect.
Note: Please check all Cat-5 cables for continuity in advance of final connection (568B). Plugging the
EZ-POWER/VIDEO Cat-5 cable into the wrong RJ-45 or using the wrong pin-out may cause damage to the camera system and void the warranty!
Step 4: Connect the supplied 24 VDC, 2.08 Amp power supply to a power outlet and to the Quick-Connect SR
Interface. The Quick-Connect SR will initialize, power will travel down the EZ-POWER VIDEO Cat-5e cable to the camera. The camera will boot up and in a few seconds, differential HD video will travel back down the Cat-5e cable to the Quick-Connect USB. When an image is available, the camera is ready to accept control information from the IR remote control or RS-232 camera controller, however it is always best to choose either IR or RS-232
and not both concurrently.
