Completing the Installation:
Connect the Power Cat-5 cable to the CCU and connect the Vaddio 36 VDC power supply to an AC outlet.
Power will travel down the Power Cat-5 cable to the EZIM CCU, powering the camera. The camera will “Home”
to a centered position ready for control information from the IR Remote Commander 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) must be powered on after the camera. Move the camera and test the video.

Optimizing System Performance:

Optimizing the CCU settings will help achieve maximum performance from the system.
Difficult lighting is one of the most challenging problems video system integrators face. The
Vaddio CCU will provide the flexibility to fine tune for variables such as cable length,
day/night lighting transitions and lighting color temperature.
CCU Control Mode: CCU’s that are sold with cameras other than Vaddio will have a CCU Control button

with the scene controls. Make sure and select CCU Control if available prior to making CCU adjustments.
PTZ control will not be available in this mode.

Adjust the Y Gain Settings*: Enable both Auto Iris and Auto White Balance prior to adjustment. Make sure

the distance adjustment is set at its lowest setting. Adjust the trim pot on the back of the CCU counter-
clockwise until picture fades or drops out (cable length dependent). Adjust clockwise just past the setting
where picture is restored. Leave the distance adjustment** at its lowest setting unless recommended by
Vaddio technical support.

Adjust Iris and Digital Gain Settings: Disable Auto Iris. Set the Iris to its largest aperture (lowest ‘f’

number). Adjust the Gain until the image is too dark and then bring it back until it is properly exposed.
Exposures that require high gain settings will have a grainy video image. Adjust the detail settings for a
smoother image.

Adjust Color to Taste: Required adjustments will vary based on the environment. The CCU allows the set-

up of several scenes so settings are available for a variety of conditions. Adjust the Chroma level to taste.
Adjust Red/Blue levels next. Adjusting for skin tones or using a color chart is an easy way to find a good
baseline setup.
