VERVIEW
The amazing 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 (black)
HD PTZ Camera on Mount
The lens, image sensor and ISP are the real magic behind the RoboSHOT’s remarkable video performance characteristics. Both cameras use the latest generation Exmor® 1/2.8”, 2.34 Megapixel, Full HD (1080p/60) high­speed, 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.
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 platform paired with the Quick-Connect USB Mini uses the Vaddio EZCamera™ Cat-5 Cable System to transport HSDS™ (differential video) from the camera, power to the camera and bidirectional control over standard Cat­5/5e/6 cabling up to 100’ (30.48m) with virtually no loss in video quality or any latency.
Quick-Connect USB Mini
The Quick-Connect USB Mini features USB 2.0 streaming and uses the standard UVC (Universal Video Class) drivers built-in to the OS of the computer, which means that no pesky programs or drivers and the associated headaches are required. Any compatible UCC client using UVC drivers can be used (see com patible program list). An embedded web server provides for browser-based access of robotic camera controls, camera presets and rudimentary CCU functions (color and shading controls) as well as the video conf iguration web pages.

RoboSHOT HD Cameras
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.
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 hasn’t been tested and may damage the device and/or create an unsafe operating condition.
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 (DWG and PDF) for the Vaddio product line on the Vaddio website. These documents can be downloaded from www.vaddio.com free of charge.
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.
Use only the power supply provided with the system. Use of any unauthorized or extended DC power supplies will void any and all warranties.
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 connections which can result in the RS-232 control line failing and locking up, and/or compromising the HSDS (high speed differential signals). For best results please use standard RJ-45 connectors and test all cables for proper pin-outs prior to use and connection to Vaddio Cat-5e products.
The RoboSHOT HD PTZ camera connectivity for all signals (video, power and control) is over Cat-5 cable (ubiquitously referred to as Cat-5 or Cat-5e). For best results, please use quality Cat-5e cable and real RJ-45 crimpers. Unlike phone and data lines that use the four center conductors (pairs 3 & 6 and pairs 4 & 5), the Vaddio EZCamera systems use all of the pins in most configurations. When terminated correctly The Vaddio Cat-5e solution provides for the utmost in flexibility for HD video system design, integration and ease of installation.

Setting the RoboSHOT Switch Gear:
1) Set the HD output resolution for the RoboSHOT ca mera with the HD Video Select rotary switch to position “0”
*
(720p/59.94), position “3” (720p/60) or position “6” (720p/50). These 3 resolutions are used for the USB 2.0 Streaming only.
2) Set the IR control frequency of the camera if it is to respond to the IR remote control.
3) If using the IR forwarding features with a 3
rd
party codec remote, set the IR OUT switch to ON (SW3).
4) If inverting the camera, turn the IMAGE FLIP ON (SW4).
5) 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 67.3º horizontal field of view (HFOV). The RoboSHOT 30 does not have a Super Wide mode.
6) Set the Baud Rate DIP switch (SW6) to 9600bps for most appli catio ns. Default is 9600 bps.
7) 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 o n 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. The RoboSHOT 30 does not have a Super Wide mode.
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.
Set the RoboSHOT Resolution for the USB Mini Interface NOTE: For best results with USB 2.0 streaming, select video resolution position “0” (720p60/59.94/50). MJPEG is
limited to 720p/30, so starting higher only adds another layer of scaling.

NSTALLATION BASICS:
The RoboSHOT cameras include a Thin Profile Wall Mount for mounting the camera. There are options for IN-Wall™ mounts and IN-Ceiling™ Half-Recessed Enclosure with Cat-5/5e/6 cable connectivity for Video, Power and Control signaling (two Cat-5e cables are required). Installation is simplified in that no custom 8-Pin mini-din cables or expensive plenum coax cables are needed and no power outlets are required near the camera bracket. All cabling is routed to the head-end using Cat-5e cables with standard straight through RJ-45 connectors (568B termination). “Pass-
thru” type RJ-45 connectors should be avoided like bad clichés.” Determine Camera Mount Location
When locating the camera, consider viewing angles, lighting conditions, possible line of site obstru ctions and check for in-wall or in-ceiling obstructions where the camera is to be mounted. Always pick a mounting location to optimize the performance of the camera. Please locate the camera to enable easy positioning of the camera body with the ability to point down and away from the ceiling and a pile of fluorescent lighting cells. Cameras generally don’t like to be swamped with fluorescent light and nobody sits on the ceiling anyway.
After determining the optimum location of the camera system, pull and route the required two (2) Cat-5e cables from the camera location back to the Quick-Connect (head-end).
Test and mark the Cat-5e cables: EZ-POWER VIDEO and RS-232.
Note: Please check all Cat-5/5e/6 cables for continuity in advance of final connection. Use 568B straight-thru termination. Plugging the Power Cat-5/5e/6 cable into the wrong RJ-45 or using the wrong pin-out may cause damage to the camera system and void the warranty, which is typically bad…mostly.
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 box, use the screws supplied with the wall box cover plate to attach Thin Profile Wall Mount Bracket. If mounting to drywall with wall anchors, use the four (4) quality wall anchors and screws provided.
The Thin Profile Wall Mount Bracket’s 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 12) for connecting the Cat-5e cables to the camera and Quick-Connect USB 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:

Power Up
Connect the supplied 24 VDC, 2.08 Amp power supply to a power outlet and to the Quick-Connect USB Mini Interface. It 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 Mini. Verify that the blue LEDs on the camera are illuminated. When an image is available, the camera is ready to accept control information from the IR remote control or the camera can be controlled via the Ethernet. Let the camera completely boot up before sending any commands via IR or Ethernet
Application Software
Using desired third party software, verify the USB 2.0 (UVC) streaming. Upon applying power to the system, the USB Mini will show up on the connected computer as a UVC video USB 2.0 peripheral.
USB Mini Details
The Quick-Connect USB Mini Interface is a Cat-5/5e/6 camera interface and a USB 2.0 streaming appliance with a built-in webserver for camera set-up and control. The USB Mini will auto-load the control protocols of the Vaddio camera attached. Setup and control are available to the administrator of the system from any approved browser on any computer. The interface uses UVC (Universal Video Class) drivers for USB 2.0 video and d oes not requi re the loading of any other drivers to run on the PC.
Worth Mentioning Again
Both the RoboSHOT and the Quick-Connect USB Mini has embedded web servers. The Quick-Conne ct USB Mini is setup with the USB connection to the PC. The RoboSHOT will need an Ethernet connection if it is going to be controlled via web server.
The USB Mini interface has two modes: Video Streaming Mode and Web Control Mode. While using the Web Control Mode, the video image is not available for preview. For this reason, the IR Remote Commander may be the best way to control the camera in real-time. If camera control via web browser is desired, use the web server inside the RoboSHOT camera. The camera is capable of concurrent video and control in real-time.

DHCP IP Set-up (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP Set-up (skip this section if Static IP). If the LAN has a DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) server, then the IP address, gateway and routing information will automatically be assigned. The software is defaulted to DHCP and will attempt to dynamically obtain an IP address using DHCP, but it will fall back to the default address of (169.254.1.1) if no DHCP server can be found.
Static IP Set-up:
The static IP can be assigned either through the network or directly to a computer using a cross-over cable. Depending on the age of the computer, you may not need a cross-over cable. Either way the steps are the same for network or direct connection to a computer. The default address of the camera is 169.254.1.1 and the Subnet mask is 255.255.0.0. Different computer OS types all have their own way of doing things
(without question), but they are essentially doing the same stuff, changing the IP address so the web pages of the RoboSHOT are accessible
.
Screen Shot: Login
The RoboSHOT webserver is intended as a user’s camera control page at one level, and an administrator’s management tool at another level, which requires password authentication for access.
The Login Page will appear if there is a user name assigned by the administrator. Assigning a user name can limit access to the admin menus by a general user.
By default, the User name is: user, and the password for the User account is: password. The Administrator can set the name and password for the User account.
By default, the Admin user name is: admin, and the password for the admin account is: password
If a user or an admin logs in through this screen, then the next page shown will be the camera control page. The user will only have access to the camera control page. The Admin will have complete access to all web pages.

Screen Shot: Camera Control Page
This web page provides access to the camera controls for the User and the Admin.
1) Pan, Tilt and Home Controls: These intuitive controls use the up/down and diagonal arrows for camera pan and tilt. The center button will move the camera to the home position.
2) Zoom Control: The camera’s zoom lens can be controlled with the “+” to zoom-in and the “-“to zoom out.
3) Pan/Tilt and Zoom Speed Controls: The speed for both the Pan/Tilt and Zoom controls can be adjusted with the three
(3) sliders in this section. For tighter shots, it is recommended that the slower speed is used. These controls are for real­time camera movements only.
4) Standby: The Standby control puts the camera in lo w power mode and effectively puts the RoboSHOT to sleep. The camera will pan 90º from center and 30º downward (to not collect dust on the lens). When the camera is inverted (ceiling mounted) the camera will pan 90º from center and 30º downward. If the system is on, then the button will be blue and controls will be visible. If the button is red, no controls are accessible and the screen states: Device is in standby. Click to power-up, then you’ll know what to do.
5) Camera Presets: Twelve (12) camera position presets can be recalled simpl y by clicking a preset number.
6) Store Preset Button: Clicking the Store button ope ns up a Store Preset pop-up dialog box. To set presets, set up the
camera shot, click on choice of preset number (1 through 12). The preset is stored and the di alog box closes. The Store Preset dialog bow will prompt the operator to enter the Tri-Sync speed to the stored camera preset and if the current color settings are to be stored with the preset too (see the next page).
7) CCU Scenes: The user has access to the CCU scenes set and stored on the Admin pages. There are three (3) user definable presets and six (6) presets preconfigured by the technical folks at Vaddio (really Scott set them all) that are meant to be used in certain lighting scenarios. These lighting presets included: Automatic, Incandescent Hi, Incand escent Lo, Fluorescent Hi, Fluorescent Lo and Outdoor.

Screen Shot: Storing Presets
1) Store Preset: When the Store Preset button is clicked (point 6 on previous page), the Store Preset dialog pops into
existence. To save the current camera shot, click one of the Preset buttons (1 through 12), the button will be highlighted and the dialog box will present the Tri-Sync controls and if the CCU setting are to be kept with the preset.
2) Save with Tri-Sync and Setting the Tri-Sync Speed: 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 PTZ position so pan, tilt and zoom arrive at the preset subject simultaneously. Tri-Sync speed is speed at which all other presets will use to get to the preset being stored. All axes will launch at the same time and if the next preset position is not too close or too far, axes should simultaneously arrive at the preset location. Storing the preset with Tri-Sync is fairly straight forward. Here’s a quick method to set Tri-Sync: a) Position the first preset, click on Store Preset and click on Preset 1. Ch eck the Save with Tri-Sync box. Move
the tri-Sync speed slider to about the approximate position above (about 1/3 up the speed scale). This is the speed that all the other presets will use to get to this Preset 1. The speed is stored with the destination preset. Click on Save to store the camera location and Tri-Sync speed.
b) Set another camera position, and try a different pan, tilt and zoom position and click on Store Preset. Click on
Preset 2 through 12, click on the Save with Tri-Sync box and set the slider to about ½ way this time and click on Save. These two presets are stored with different preset destination speeds.
c) Click between these two recently stored presets and note the different speeds applied to the 2 presets.
Tri-Sync Notes: If a preset is very close to the previous preset, like within10º with no chan ge in zoom , it certainly doesn’t need to be Tri-Sync’d. If a preset is super-fast and off-air, T ri-Sync won’t be of much use either. T ri-Sync is a cool tool to set for on-air shots, but the process of setting the speeds will need some practice.
3) Store with Current Color Settings: To save the currently assigned CCU scenes settings, check this box.
4) Click Save or Cancel to exit this pop-up dialog box.

All axes will launch at the same time and if the next preset position is not too close or too far, axes should simultaneously arrive at the preset location. Storing the preset with Tri-Sync is fairly straight forward. Here’s a quick method to set Tri-Sync: d) Position the first preset, click on Store Preset and click on Preset 1. Ch eck the Save with Tri-Sync box. Move
the tri-Sync speed slider to about the approximate position above (about 1/3 up the speed scale). This is the speed that all the other presets will use to get to this Preset 1. The speed is stored with the destination preset. Click on Save to store the camera location and Tri-Sync speed.
e) Set another camera position, and try a different pan, tilt and zoom position and click on Store Preset. Click on
Preset 2 through 12, click on the Save with Tri-Sync box and set the slider to about ½ way this time and click on Save. These two presets are stored with different preset destination speeds.
f) Click between these two recently stored presets and note the different speeds applied to the 2 presets.
Tri-Sync Notes: If a preset is very close to the previous preset, like within 10º with no change i n zoom, it certainl y doesn’t need to be Tri-Sync’d. If a preset is super-fast and off-air, T ri-Sync won’t be of much use either. T ri-Sync is a cool tool to set for on-air shots, but the process of setting the speeds will need some practice.
3) Store with Current Color Settings: To save the currently assigned CCU scenes settings, check this box.
4) Click Save or Cancel to exit this pop-up dialog box.

1) USB Device Name: Allows the user to use a “friendly name” per system. In a BYOD format, the user has the ability to move between different UC conference rooms and have the ability to assign the PC’s USB resources to that room.
2) Color Space: The UVC drivers will negotiate the color depth, but this parameter allows the user to reduce the color depth to 4:2:0, which is used with the older/cheaper webcams and applications, where image quality is not as critical. The 4:2:2 color is used by many applications that take advantage of the performance of the camera where the colors are more vibrant and precise.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
The RS-232 port is used for communication between the RoboSHOT camera and the Quick-Connect USB Mini. This connection is required for the devices to auto-recognize and auto-load the control protocols of the connected camera.
So, even though there is this RS-232 Command List is published in this document, there is really no way it can be used to control the camera.
Use the IR Remote Commander, Telnet Command List or the embedded web server and approved browser to control the RoboSHOT over Ethernet.

ELNET SERIAL COMMAND
API
The Vaddio Serial Command protocol is a high level text based command line interface supported via telnet session on the RoboSHOT. The command application protocol interface is intended to allow external device such as AMX or Crestron to control the camera. The protocol is based upon ASCII format following the VT1 00 terminal emulation standard and uses an intuitive text command nomenclature for ease of use. The API is a ccessed by a telnet client on the Ethernet port. All ASCII characters will be echoed to terminal program and appended with VT100 string ­ESC[J (HEX- 1B 5B 4A). Vaddio Command lines are terminated on carriage return. After the carriage return, the VT100 appends with –ESC[J. (Note: Most terminal programs automatically strip the VT100 string.) General format usage follows a get/set structure. Usage examples for each type are:
Set Example
COMMAND: > camera pan right RESPONSE: > OK
Get Example COMMAND: > camera home get RESPONSE: > OK
Syntax Error Example
COMMAND: > camera right pan RESPONSE: > ERROR
Additional programming controls associated with the terminal protocol includes: CTRL 5 - Clears the current serial buffer on the device.
Telnet sessions will require access verification and uses the same username and password associated with the Administrator account on the embedded web server. The default Telnet Port is 23. Command lines are terminated with a carriage return.
