VERVIEW

:
The Vaddio WideSHOT HD camera wide angle, manual lens camera
produces amazing results for small and huddle room applications
where the distance between the camera and the subject is limited.
The WideSHOT camera was designed as a low cost, high value,
manual pan/tilt camera with a super wide-angle lens that can be set
to provide the best image possible in a small environment. To that
end, the WideSHOT camera sports a lens with 82.2° wide horizontal
field of view with a user adjustable iris, focus and varifocal zoom of
approximately 3X (3.3mm to 10.5mm). With the 3X zoom capability,
even the “big” small rooms can be covered too.

Like the ZoomSHOT™, the WideSHOT is a camera with a unique
genealogy. Designed from the ground up, the WideSHOT camera
uses the Vaddio EZCamera™ Cat-5 wiring standard for video, power
and control. Using HSDS™ (high speed differential) video outputs
over Cat-5 cable, the WideSHOT supplies a wide range of video
resolutions that are selectable from the rear panel; from 480p/59.94-

Image: WideSHOT HD Camera

YPbPr up to and including 1080p/60. The HSDS processing allows
delivery of the HD video signals up to 150’ (45.72m).

Choose between three (3) IR frequencies for the Vaddio IR Shot
Commander remote controller to allow multiple cameras to be locally
IR controlled with a single remote. The WideSHOT also has an OSD
(on screen display) for easy set-up and basic image control that’s
accessible with the IR remote. Two (2) camera configuration presets
can be programmed and recalled via the remote or RS-232 and IR
signal forwarding is also included.

WideSHOT is paired with the tried-and-true Quick-Connect SR
Interface in this package which represents a exceptional value and a
very low price. So relax, for the next small room design, try a
WideSHOT Wide-angle HD Camera.

Setting the WideSHOT Lens

Image: WideSHOT Focus Knob Removal

You may ask, “Why would anyone want to remove the focus knob?” The answer is directly correlated with the
quality of this wide-angle HD lens. It is not a plastic “webcam”, but instead it is an exceptional quality glass lens,
rated up to 3-megapixel with a 3.3mm to 10.5mm precision varifocal optical zoom lens with manual iris and
manual focus controls.

Image: Adjusting the HD Varifocal Optical Zoom Lens

After removing the focus knob screw and carefully sliding off the “snug” focus knob, the lens controls are exposed
and available for adjustment. The controls are as follows:

1) The Optical Zoom Control: By carefully untightening the knurled screw a half turn on the innermost ring,

adjust the ring to either the wide (W) or tele (T) direction. The focus ring, now without knurled adjustment
screw (screw taken out to remove the focus knob) will need to be adjusted as the zoom is changed.
Experiment with the zoom range to fit the application. A full 82.2° may be too wide in some cases and
tailoring the zoom to 65° to 70° may fit the room better. After setting the control, tighten the knurled screw.

2) The Manual Iris Control: After setting the zoom range and focusing on the subject’s at the distance that the

camera will be used, the iris ca n be adjusted to limit the amount of light that the image sensor receives, which
in turn gives an increased depth of field for focusing on the people in front of the camera. The “O” stands for
open and the “C” stands for closed. Experiment with the iris to achieve the best results for the application.
After setting the control, tighten the knurled screw.

3) The Focus Control: The outermost ring is the focus control and can be adjusted to the near (N) or far (F)

side. Set the focus ring to the approximate position and reattach the focus knob with the knurled screw when
finished.

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 PowerRite 24 VDC, 2.0 Amp power supply.

2) EZCamera Power & HD Video:

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
Cat-5 cable. SD video resolutions (Y/C and CVBS formats) are not supported by the Quick-Connect SR
Interface, however analog component SD 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 WideSHOT 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 Jacks:
These RJ-45 connectors allow an external controller to route through the Quick-Connect SR for ease of cabling.

IRST TIME SET-UP

The WideSHOT was designed to be very easy to use and operate. There is documentation at the back of this
manual for pin-outs of the connectors on the Quick-Connect SR Interface and WideSHOT HD camera.

Before Installing:

 Choose the camera mounting location by 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 Thin Profile Wall Mount for the WideSHOT can be mounted directly to a 1-gang wall box or can be

mounted using only dry wall anchors.

 For Power/Video and RS-232 signals, use standard Cat-5 cable (568B termination and real RJ-45

connectors) from the EZ-POWER VIDEO and RS-232 ports on the back of the WideSHOT camera to the
Quick-Connect SR Interface. The EZ-POWER VIDEO jack on the camera is highlighted red as a reminder
that there is 24 VDC power on that Cat-5 cable.

WideSHOT WallVIEW SR

Step By Step Installation Instructions:
Step 1: After determining the optimum location of the camera, route, mark and test the

two Cat-5 cables from the camera to the Quick-Connect SR Interface located at the
head-end. The two Cat-5 cables should feed-through the hole located on the rear flange
of the supplied Thin Profile Wall Mount. The bracket can be mounted to a 1-gang wall
box. If the mount is to be mounted on a 1-gang wall box, use the screws supplied with
the wall box cover plate to attach the Thin Profile Wall Mount. If mounting to the drywall
with wall anchors, use two quality wall anchors (provided). Level the mount and tighten
the mounting screws.

Step 2:
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 are tables on previous pages that
identify the choices…maybe keep these tables handy for future use…or you can easily look them up on the

Vaddio website (vaddio.com) when needed.

Switches to set on the camera:

 Set the desired HD Resolution with the rotary selection switch.
 Set the IR frequency of the camera (if it is to respond to the IR remote control).
 Set the image orientation (normal or flipped).

On the WideSHOT camera, the remote will basically navigate through the OSD menus since the camera’s zoom,
iris and focus are manual.

Step: 3: Follow the sample wiring diagram for connecting the Cat-5 cables to the WideSHOT and Quick-Connect
SR Interface (yep, on the next page, but read and understand the rest of these instructions especially the next
note).

NOTE: Check all Cat-5e cables for continuity in advance of the final connection. Label the Cat­5e cables. Plugging the EZ POWER HD VIDEO cable into the wrong RJ-45 may cause damage
to the camera system and void the warranty. For premise cabling, please use real RJ-45
connectors and crimpers. Please don’t use the pull through or EZ type of RJ-45 connectors.

Step 4: Place the camera onto the camera mount and use the provided ¼”-20 screws to secure the camera to
the mount. To dress the cabling, push the extra cable back into the wall opening.

Step 5: Connect the Vaddio 24 VDC, 2.0 Amp power supply to a power outlet and to the Quick Connect SR
Interface. Power will travel down the Power/Video Cat. 5 cable to the camera. The camera will boot up and in a
few seconds, HSDS (differential) video will travel back down the Cat-5 cable and be ready to accept control
information from the IR remote control or other camera controller.

To insure proper continuity of control and operation of the cameras, the RS-232 controller (control
system or joystick) should be powered on after the camera.

RAMING THE WIDE

SHOT’S V

IDEO SHOT

When framing the shot with a WideSHOT Camera, consider and review the following el ements:
 The area should be well lit and without reflective surfaces. For wall surfaces, use a flat paint or wall

coverings to minimize audio reflections. Use neutral colors, for example; pale grey, pale blue or beige that
are easy for any camera to process.

 Avoid white and black or a stark contrast color pallet, avoid placing a big old white board in the background,

and avoid complex décor in view of the camera (modern art). Avoid glass, chrome, mirrors, and glass on
table tops to minimize the lighting and audio reflections.

 Always avoid having a window in the camera shot as sunlight can be disruptive of camera performance.

Window treatments are a must for rooms with windows to achieve evenly lit space without direct sunlight.

 Never position the camera so that any ceiling lights are in the video frame. No one sits anywhere near the

ceiling and direct lighting in the frame can be problematic for the automatic functions of the camera.
The bottom line is simple, give the camera a chance to work well in the room and excellent video is the result.
There are many room set up primers available on today’s internet for reference.

Drawing: A Small Conference Room (10’ wide x 12’ long) with a WideSHOT HD camera

WideSHOT set at the wide end (82.2°).

The WideSHOT HD camera set to the full wide
end of 82.2° is an excellent choice for small
(huddle) conferencing rooms that range from 8’
(2.44m) to 12’ (3.66m) in width x depth.

In this example, the table front is 4’ (1.22m) away
from the camera and the WideSHOT can easily
capture all of the meeting participants from this
distance

The WideSHOT can be manually zoomed into a
tighter shot for a conference room with fewer
participants as well.
