MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1:
After determining the optimum location of the camera system, route the required 3 (three) CAT-5 cables
from the camera to the Quick-Connect CCU interface located at the head-end. The three CAT-5 cables
should feed-through the oval slot located on the rear flange of the wall mount. If the bracket is to be
mounted on a 2-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 four (4) quality wall anchors. The
mounting holes are slotted and are 90° opposing to provide easy leveling. Level the mount and tighten
down the mounting screws.
Step 2:
Locate the EZIM CCU Card (see the front page of the manual for a picture of the device). Remove the
blank panel below the connectors on the back of the camera. Slide the EZIM CCU Card into the slot on
the back of the camera until the connector is seated into the camera. Tighten the thumb screws on the
EZIM CCU Card.
Note: IR Output – Switch 3
When operating the HD-18 camera with the Quick-Connect CCU, the IR Output must be set to the OFF
position on the back of the camera. If it is not turned off, it will interfere with proper operation of the PTZ
camera.
Step 3:
Follow the sample wiring diagram on the previous page for connecting the CAT-5 cables to the camera
and Quick-Connect CCU, using a Vaddio ProductionVIEW Precision Camera Controller. Additional
diagrams are available on our website for installation with other equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Check all CAT-5 cables for continuity in advance of the final
connection. Plugging the POWER CAT-5 Cable into the wrong RJ-45 may cause
damage to the camera system and void the warranty.
Step 4:
Place the camera onto the camera mount and using the ¼”-20 screws to secure the camera to the mount.
Step 5:
Connect the Vaddio 36 VDC power supply to an AC outlet. Power will travel down the Power CAT-5
cable to the camera. The camera will “Home” to a centered position ready for control information from the
IR remote control or RS-232 camera controller of the integrators’ choice. 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.
Step 6:
For setting up the CCU, first make sure that the video monitor that you are using is set up correctly, and is
delivering accurate color reproduction. Next, adjust the iris level of the camera, so that brighter areas are
not washed out. After that is done, adjust the Pedestal level so that the black levels are not too dark, and
not too light. After this, adjust the Red & Blue Gain, Gamma, Detail, Knee and Chroma. NOTE: Gain
(next to Iris, should be left at 0 (zero), unless lighting is inadequate, then turn it to a level where the signal
brightness is at an appropriate level. Gain adds additional noise (grain) to the video the higher it is turned
up.
