Overview:
The Universal CCU is the new Quick-Connect™ CCU for the WallVIEW HD-20, HD-19
and HD-18 Pan/Tilt/Zoom Camera Systems. The Universal CCU will have three (3) main
models; Cat-5 version, Wireless version for the HD-20 and Optical version for all cameras.
This manual covers the Cat-5 Universal CCUs.
The Cat-5 Universal CCU 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 or an without latency. One of the most flexible attributes the Universal CCU has is at the outputs. It has
HD-SDI or SDI outputs, HDMI and HD Analog component (YPbPr) outputs, all of which can be used concurrently.
Resolution throughput ranges from 480i up to and including 1080p/60 on all outputs. The Universal CCU has a
new industrial design that simplifies the operation of the CCU. The back-lit blue LED screen displays up to eight
(8) parameters at a time and the camera’s model number so the interrelationship of the controls can easily and
quickly be read and understood.
The WallVIEW CCU series for ClearVIEW HD-20, HD-19 and HD-18 allows the user to adjust Red and Blue Gain,
Iris functions, Chroma, Pedestal, Knee, Detail, Gamma and Gain on the cameras. These controls allow the
camera to deliver a more accurate representation of the image that is being captured. Other added advantages
include the ability to color match multiple cameras and eliminate the need to use automatic exposure and color
settings. User-defined adjustments may be stored using three (3) Scene buttons. There are also six (6) preset
lighting environment scenes available in the menus for quick basic set-up of the camera for the lighting used in
the shooting environment.
Overall, any WallVIEW System using the Quick-Connect Universal CCU is superb for a wide range of high
definition shooting applications. It is also great where adjusting the color and brightness levels of one or multiple
cameras is critical, as in houses of worship, corporate boardrooms, live event production and distance-learning
applications.

Use only the power supply provided with the system. Use of any unauthorized
power supply 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. For best results please use standard RJ-45 connectors
and test all cables for proper pin-outs prior to use. Mark all cables to avoid errant connections.
