Before You Install the Camera
This section covers items and information you need before you start the installation.
Connecting to an SX-20 Codec
The SX-20 codec uses the Cisco split cable CAB-PHD4XS2-SPLIT. This cable is included with the camera in kits
designed for use with Cisco codecs. It is not included in OneLINK kits for use with customer-supplied cameras.
RS-232 Control Connections
Be sure the camera is set for the same baud rate as the codec. DIP switch 6 on the back of the camera sets the
baud rate at 9600 (up) or 38400 (down).
Note
For most codecs, the default is 9600 baud. Check the documentation for your codec.
If the codec has additional RS-232 communication settings, be sure they match the camera's settings:
n8 bits
n1 stop bit
nNo parity
nNo flow control
These cannot be changed on the camera.
Use the directional Cat-5 cable for the RS-232 control connection from the OneLINK device to the codec, following
the instructions printed on the colored bands on the ends of the cable. When connecting to an SX-20 codec, use this
cable to connect the split cable to the OneLINK device's RS-232 port.
This is not a straight-through cable. It will not work if it is connected incorrectly.
Using HDMI Cameras with OneLINK devices
If you use a OneLINK device between an HDMI camera and the codec, you must connect the camera using the
OneLINK HDMI EZIM (EZCamera interface module), which is an HDBaseT converter.

Basic Connections
The diagrams in this section provide guidance for these connection scenarios:
nConnecting a camera directly to a Cisco codec
nConnecting an HDBaseT camera to a Cisco codec using a OneLINK device
nConnecting an HDMI camera to a Cisco codec using a OneLINK device
Connection diagrams use the following conventions for line/signal type:
Note
In cases where special cables are used, the connection diagram depicts the cable itself as well as the signal type(s)
that it carries.
Application Note: Using RoboSHOT Series Cameras with Cisco Codecs
6
Connecting a Camera Directly to a Cisco Codec
In this scenario, the camera and codec are physically sited relatively close to the displays, audio peripherals, and
other elements of the room system. The codec provides connectivity for the camera and all peripheral devices.
Kit for this scenario:
RoboSHOT 12 HDMI for Cisco SX Codecs, 999-9940-400/401
The diagram depicts the required directional Cat-5 cable and the Cisco split cable CAB-PHD4XS2-SPLIT, along
with the signal types they carry. When connecting to Cisco codecs other than the SX20, the split cable is not
required. The diagram shows details for connecting the camera and associated display. Refer to the codec
documentation for information on completing the installation.
Connecting an HDBaseT Camera to a Cisco Codec Using a OneLINK Device
In this scenario, the camera may be sited up to 328 ft. (100 m) from the codec. Both OneLINK devices provide
additional video outputs; the OneLINK Bridge also provides audio connectivity, and the OneLINK HDMI provides IR
forwarding capability if supported by the camera.
Kits for this scenario:
nRoboSHOT HDBT OneLINK Bridge System for Cisco Codecs, 999-9675-500/501/509
nRoboSHOT HDBT OneLINK HDMI System for Cisco Codecs, 999-9575-500/501/509

not required.
For additional connection diagrams and other information, refer to the Integrator's Complete Guide to the OneLINK
HDMI Camera Extension.

Connecting an HDMI Camera to a Cisco Codec Using a OneLINK Device
In this scenario, the camera may be sited up to 328 ft. (100 m) from the codec.
Both OneLINK devices provide additional video outputs; the OneLINK Bridge also provides audio and USB
connectivity, and the OneLINK HDMI provides IR forwarding capability if supported by the camera.
Kits for this scenario:
nCisco codec kit for OneLINK Bridge to RoboSHOT HDMI, 999-9670-000/001/009
nCisco codec kit for OneLINK HDMI for RoboSHOT HDMI, 999-9570-000/001/009
In these diagrams, an EZCamera Interface Module (EZIM) is installed with the camera for the required HDBaseT
connectivity to the OneLINK device. The diagrams in this section show connections to the SX-20 codec. They
show detailed information for the camera and associated display. Refer to the codec documentation for information
on completing the installation.
This diagram shows the camera and OneLINK Bridge AV interface in a conferencing set-up. It depicts the required
directional Cat-5 cable and the Cisco split cable CAB-PHD4XS2-SPLIT, along with the signal types they carry.

Configuring the Camera for Use with the Codec
When the camera is installed and powered on, you will need to configure it for use with the codec.
Note
If you are connecting a camera that you did not purchase as part of a kit for use with Cisco codecs, you may need to
update the firmware.
1. Access the camera's web interface and log in as admin. Refer to the camera's documentation for detailed
instructions.
2. On the System page, verify that the System Version shows a version that supports codec control:
oRoboSHOT HDMI: Version 2.3.0 or later
oRoboSHOT HDBT: Version 1.2.0 or later
3. If the camera's firmware is earlier than these versions, download the latest version from our website and update
the camera. Refer to the camera's documentation for detailed instructions.
4. On the DIP Switches tab of the System page, select Codec Control Mode using the appropriate soft
DIPswitch.
The camera is now ready for operation.
