Integrator's Complete Guide to the RoboSHOT 20 UHD High Performance, Ultra High Definition PTZ Camera
Camera Settings
Use the DIP switches to set other camera behaviors.
Note
When the camera is right side up, switches are in their default positions when they are up.
IR Frequency Selection:The IR Remote Commander can control up to three cameras in the same room
independently, if they are configured with different IR frequencies. Use switches 1 and 2 to select the
frequency to identify the camera as camera 1, 2, or 3; then use the Camera Select buttons at the top of the
remote to select the camera you want to control.
IR: Leave switch 3 in the default UP position if the IR remote will be used.
Inverted operation: If mounting the camera upside-down, set switch 4 to the DOWN position: IMAGE
FLIP ON.
Baud Rate:Set the baud rate for RS-232 communication using switch 5. Most applications use 9600 bps
(switch 6 UP), which is recommended when using long cable runs. Use the 38,400 bps setting (switch 6
DOWN) for short control lines only.
Switch 6 is not currently used.
Pro Tip
Double-check switch settings before you mount the camera.

Installation
This section covers
n Siting the camera
n Installing the mount
n Connecting the camera
n Installing the camera
Before You Install the Camera
n Choose a camera mounting location that will optimize camera performance. Consider camera viewing
angles, lighting conditions, line-of-sight obstructions, and in-wall obstructions where the camera is to be
mounted.
n If the IR Remote Commander will be used, ensure that nothing blocks the IRlens in the camera's base.
n Ensure that the camera body can move freely and point away from the ceiling and lights.
n Follow the installation instructions included with the camera mount.
Don’t Void Your Warranty!
Caution
This product is for indoor use. Do not install it outdoors or in a humid environment without the appropriate
protective enclosure. Do not allow it to come into contact with any liquid.
Use only the power supply included with this product. Using a different one will void the warranty, and
could create unsafe operating conditions or damage the product.
Do not install or operate this product if it has been dropped, damaged, or exposed to liquids. If any of these
things happen, return it to Vaddio for safety and functional testing.
DomeVIEW enclosures are available to allow outdoor installation of RoboSHOT cameras. Learn more at
www.vaddio.com/products.
Cabling Notes
Use Cat-5e or better cable and standard RJ-45 connectors (568B termination). We recommend using high-
quality connectors and a high-quality crimping tool.
Caution
Check Cat-5 cables for continuity before using them. Using the wrong pin-out may damage the camera
system and void the warranty.
Note
Do not use pass-through RJ-45 connectors. These can cause intermittent connections
and degraded signal quality, resulting in problems that may be hard to diagnose. Use
standard RJ-45 connectors.
Pro Tip
To prevent tragic mishaps, label both ends of every cable.

Installing the Camera
Caution
Before you start, be sure you can identify all cables correctly. Connecting a cable to the wrong port can
result in equipment damage.
Caution
Check Cat-5 cables for continuity before using them. Using the wrong pin-out may damage the camera
system and void the warranty.
1. Route the cables to the camera location.
2. Route the cables through the mount, and install the mount on the wall or attach it to the wall box. Leave
the screws loose enough to adjust the position of the mount.
3. Level the mount and tighten the mounting screws.
4. Check the level again.
5. Connect the cables to the camera.
Caution:
Use the power supply shipped with the camera. Using a different power supply may create an unsafe
operating condition or damage the camera, and will void the warranty.
6. Ensure that the video resolution switch and the DIP switches are set appropriately. See Switch
Settings.
7. Place the camera on the mount.
8. Attach the camera to the mount using the ¼”-20 x .375 mounting screw supplied with the camera.

Integrator's Complete Guide to the RoboSHOT 20 UHD High Performance, Ultra High Definition PTZ Camera
Web Interface
The camera provides a web interface to allow control via an Ethernet network connection, using a browser.
(Refer to the list of compatible web browsers.)The web interface gives the user more control over the
camera than the IR remote offers.
The web interface allows user-level camera control and password-protected administrative access to tasks
such as setting passwords, changing the IP address, viewing diagnostics, and installing firmware updates.
n Administrative access The default password is password. The admin has access to all pages of the
web interface.
n User access The default password is password. Only the camera control page is available with
user-level access.
If the LAN has a DHCP server, the camera will get its IP address, gateway and routing information
automatically and you will be able to browse to it. In the absence of a DHCP server, the camera's default
IP address is 169.254.1.1 and its subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
You can configure the camera’s static IP address either through the network or from a computer connected
directly to its Ethernet port. You may need a crossover cable.

Web Tasks for All Users: Controlling the Camera
The Camera Controls page provides most of the same controls as the IR Remote Commander, along with
some that are not available from the remote:
n Put the camera in standby or bring it back to the ready state
n Pan, tilt, zoom, or return to "home" position
n Set speeds for camera movements
n Focus manually or set auto-focus
n Set or move to camera presets

Use the speed sliders to adjust the speed of movements that you control with the buttons for pan, tilt and
zoom. For tight shots, slower is usually better.
Change the Focus
Open the Focus control to select Auto-focus, or set manual focus with the + (near) and (far) buttons.
Iknow you get this, but I’m going to say it anyway: The + and buttons don’t work when the Auto Focus
box is checked.
