Diagram: Daisy Chain Control Configurations
The WallVIEW D80 PTZ and WallVIEW D90 PTZ are capable of supporting a daisy chain control configuration
using a non-Vaddio controller (Sony Joystick or correctly written Crestron or AMX program). Vaddio controllers
support only direct connect, star wiring configurations for control because daisy chaining introduces another level
of fault (Murphy’s Law) that makes for some tricky, time consuming system troubleshooting. However, there is
more than one way to configure systems and while Vaddio whole-heartedly recommends a one to one star
configuration for control, the WallVIEW with the EZCamera Cabling Shoe also support daisy chain systems. The
Shoe has a RS-232 IN and a RS-232 OUT to support daisy chaining. See diagram below:
Note: In the diagram above a video switcher/mixer is required because the control had to be separated from the
switcher/mixer in order to accommodate the daisy chain control configuration.
Step by Step Mounting and Install Instructions:
Step 1: Determine the Camera Mount Location:
When locating the camera, consider viewing angles, lighting conditions, possible line of site obstructions and
check for in-wall obstructions where the camera is to be mounted. Select a mounting location to optimize the
performance of the camera for your application.
After determining the optimum location of the camera system, route the required Cat-5 cables from the camera
location to the head-end. Be sure to mark the cables and leave several inches of Cat-5 extending out from the
wall for ease of connection.
Step 2: Determine the preferred Method of Wall Mounting
1. Method 1: 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 bracket.
2. Method 2: If the bracket is to be mounted to the dry wall, then use the provided
spiral wall anchors or other wall anchors of integrator’s choice. Mount the wall
mount to the anchors with the supplied #8 sheet metal screws. The mounting
holes are opposed 90° so leveling is easy…but use a level anyway, otherwise
the result may be that funky Batman camera angle.
