• When the Slot Card is fully seated,
tighten the retractable spring loaded
captive screws (4). Do not force or cross
tread the captive screws. Slowly tighten
both of the screws at the same time to
avoid any undesirable and/or dastardly
threading incidents.
Note:
The video outputs on the camera body (DE-15 with
YPbPr, BNC with CVBS and EZCamera VIDEO with
YPbPr) remain live and allow for simultaneous output
along with the HD-SDI Outputs.
FIRMWARE VERSIONS:
The firmware version V01.02.01 for the HD-18 camera that enables the HD-SDI Slot Card
to operate properly (dated May 20
th , 2010). If you have purchased an HD-18 PTZ camera
before this date, a firmware update is required. The updates and directions are on the
Vaddio website (vaddio.com) and if assistance with the download and update is
needed, please contact Vaddio Technical Support at 800-572-2011.
Note: IR Output – Switch 3
When operating the HD-18 camera with the Quick-Connect CCU, the
IR Output (switch 3) 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 configuration wiring diagrams in the manual for connecting the CAT 5e cables to the
camera and Quick-Connect CCU, using a Vaddio ProductionVIEW HD-SDI. Additional diagrams are
available on our website for installation with other equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• Check all CAT 5e cables for continuity in advance of the final connection.
Plugging the POWER CAT 5e Cable into the wrong RJ-45 may cause
damage to the camera system and void the warranty.
• Please do not use the “pass-thru” RJ-45 type connector. Please use
standard RJ-45 connectors for best results.
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 5e
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.
