VERVIEW
The impressive RoboSHOT HD PTZ are professional cameras with
very high quality imaging, fine detail and exceptional color
reproduction. This camera offers integrators, dealers and end users
an incredible improvement over other conferencing and large venue
cameras available today. The RoboSHOT Platform consists of two
models; the RoboSHOT 12 and the RoboSHOT 30. These
RoboSHOT systems are specifically packaged for use with the AV
Bridge MATRIX PRO and takes advantage of the three (3) built-in
Quick-Connect systems with in the MATRIX PRO.
The RoboSHOT 12 is perfect for small to medium sized conference
rooms. This model features a 12X optical zoom and a 73° wide angle
horizontal field of view, which provides incomparable support for
applications including UCC Applications, videoconferencing, distance
learning, lecture capture, telepresence and more!
The RoboSHOT 30 camera performs brilliantly in medium to large
rooms. It features a 30X optical zoom with an impressive 2.3° tele end
to 65° wide end horizontal field of view and provides exceptional
support for applications including House of Worship productions, large
auditorium A/V systems, large distance learni ng classrooms, live event
theatres with IMAG systems, large le cture theatres wit h lecture capture
and more!
The key features of both RoboSHOT cameras are Tri-Synchronous
Multi-Axis Motion and the Advanced Image Sensor, lens and ISP
(image signal processor) combination. The Tri-Synchronous Motion
algorithm in the RoboSHOT cameras is capable of moving all three
(pan, tilt and zoom) axes simultaneously. The algorithm calculates the
position and velocity of the smooth, direct-drive motor movements
between the presets so pan, tilt and zoom arrive at the preset subject
simultaneously, which finally allows for smooth and manag eable on-air
camera movements. Yep, there’s no more pan/tilt, then zoom like other
PTZ cameras available today.
The lens, image sensor and ISP are the real m agic be hind
the RoboSHOT’s remarkable video performance
characteristics. Both cameras use the latest generation
Exmor® 1/2.8”, 2.38 Megapixel, Full HD (1080p/60) high-
speed, low noise CMOS image sensor combined with a
new ISP, produces vivid, realistic and accurate color with
extremely fast, razor sharp automatic focus and auto iris
routines.
The RoboSHOT platform, paired with the MATRIX PRO, uses the Vaddio EZCamera™ Cat-5 Cable System to
transport HSDS™ (differential video), power and control to and from the camera over Cat-5/5e/6 cables. Three
Quick-Connect interfaces are built-into the MATRIX PRO and with the RoboSHOT cameras, distances of 100’
(30.48m) are achievable in FULL HD at 1080p/60.
All RoboSHOT’s are equipped with an Ethernet port and a built-in web server, which allows the user to control the
camera functions on an internal web page with a browser from anywhere in the world, or in the same room, over
the IP network. Telnet, IR Remote and RS-232 control for the camera are available to satisfy almost any system
control requirements.
The RoboSHOT cameras and the AV Bridge MATRIX PRO were designed for the times and represent a new era
in specifying and integrating professional quality cameras into A/V and conferencing system configurations. In
short, it has never been easier to integrate cameras into any environment than with these products.

In this case, a Vaddio technician must examine the product before operating. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not immerse in water or other liquids and avoid ext remely humid conditions.
The RoboSHOT HD PTZ camera connectivity for all signals (video, power and control) is over Cat-5/5e/6 cable
(ubiquitously referred to as Cat-5 or Cat-5e). For best results, please use quality Cat-5e cable and real RJ-45
crimpers. Unlike phone and data lines that use the four center con ductors (pairs 3 & 6 and pairs 4 & 5), the Vaddio
EZCamera systems use all of the pins in most configurations. When terminated correctly The Vaddio Cat-5e
solution provides for the utmost in flexibility for HD video system design, integration and ease of installation.
Use only the power supply provided with the system. Use of any unauthorized or
extended DC power supplies will void any and all warranties.
Please do not use “pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors. These pass-thru type
connectors do not work well for professional installations and can be the cause of
intermittent connections which can result in the RS-232 control line failing and
locking up, and/or compromising the HSDS (high speed differential signals). For
best results please use standard RJ-45 connectors and test all cables for proper
pin-outs prior to use and connection to Vaddio Cat-5e products.

GETTING STARTED
Setting the RoboSHOT Camer a HD Resolution
The RoboSHOT cameras control the resolutio n of the video signal sent back to the Quick-Connect interface. There
is, as explained earlier, a rotary switch to set the HD video resolution and a set of eight (8) DIP switches that
determine certain camera functio ns.
Drawing: DIP Switch and Resolution Label on the Bottom of the RoboSHOT
Setting the RoboSHOT Switch Gear:
① - Set the desired and available HD output resolution for the camera with the Rotary Switch.
② - Set the IR control frequency of the came ra if it is to respond to the IR remote control.
③ - IR OUT is not used with MATRIX PRO.
④ - If inverting the camera, turn the IMAGE FLIP ON (SW4).
⑤ - For the RoboSHOT 12X model only, set the Super-wide mode to ON for a 12X, 73º horizontal super-wide
angle of view. Normal mode will produce 67.2º horizont al field of view (HFOV). The RoboSHOT 30 does not have
a Super Wide mode.
⑥ - Set the Baud Rate DIP switch (SW6) to 9600bp s for most applications. Default is 9600 bps systems.
⑦ - Setting all DIP switches DOWN with a power cycle loads the default camera settings. Return DIPs to
desired operating positio n after power cycle.
Note: Switches 7 & 8 are reserved for future use.
DIP Switch Settings Further Explained (DSSFE):
IR 1, 2 and 3 (SW 1 &2): A single IR remote ha s the cap ability of operating up to three differe nt PTZ cameras
in a room. Use these selector DIP switches and the selector buttons at the top of the IR remote to select the
frequency.
IR OUT on/off (SW3): The IR output is not used with the MATRIX PRO. However, if certain lighting or other
pesky IR sources are within a room effect the performa nce of the camera and RS-232 is the on ly control being
used, then turn SW3 to IR OUT ON, which turns of the IR reception of the camera’s internal processor.
Image Flip (SW4): To invert the camera, turn the IMAGE FLIP ON (switch down).
Super-Wide Mode: Super-wide works only with the RoboSHOT 12 model and allows the camera to switch
from 67.3º wide end HFOV to a Super Wide 73º wide end HFOV.
Baud Rate (SW6 ): The options for baud rate are either 9600 or 38,400 bps. The 9600 bps works best with
Cat-5e over distance. Use 38,400 bps fo r short control lines only.
DIP Switches (SW7 & 8): Not used for operation, please leave these DIP switch es up or in the OFF position.

Diagram: Basic Wiring Configuration with MATRIX PRO
RoboSHOT 12 cameras with AV Bridge Matrix PRO showing basic connectivity with color coded RJ-45 jacks.
Obviously, there’s a whole bunch mo re stuff going on here with the MATRIX PRO, that’s why we sugg ested earlier
that using the MATRIX PRO manual in conjunction with this manual for the Rob oSHOT’s is your best bet.

NSTALLATION
Choose camera mounting locatio n, paying close attention to camera viewing angles, lighting conditions, possible
line of site obstructions, and checking for in-wall obstructions where the camera is to be mounted. Always pick
a mounting location that will optimize the performance of the camera. Please locate the camera to enable easy
positioning of the camera body with the ability to point down and away from the ceiling and a pile of fluorescent
lighting cells. Cameras generally don’t like to be swamped with fluorescent light and nobody sits or stands on
the ceiling anyway...as a general rule.
For Power/Video and RS-232 signals, use standard Cat-5/5e/6 cable (568B termination and real RJ-45
connectors) from the EZ-POWER VIDEO and RS-232 ports on the back of the RoboSHOT to the MATRIX PRO.
These jacks are color coded for ease of connection.

More Notes: Use of pass-thru type RJ-45 connectors is highly discouraged. The Vaddio Cat-5 wiring
standard uses pins 1, 2, 7 and 8 on both the power/video and the control Cat-5e cables. The pass-through
connectors have proven to provide insufficient connectivity for these important signals. They are OK for
voice and data that use the center pins only, but not for cabling systems that use all the pins.
Installation Basics:
The RoboSHOT cameras inclu de a Thin Profile Wall Mount for… wall mounting the camera. There
are options for IN-Wall™ mounts and IN-Ceiling™ Half-Recessed as well. The Cat-5 cabling
ideology is especially convenient for camera mounting when the camera location is not anywhere
near an AC outlet. Installation is simplified in that no custom 8-Pin mini-din cables or expensive
plenum coax cables or multi-pin cable s or powe r outlets are required near the camera locatio n. All
Cat-5 cabling is routed to the head-end using with standard straight through RJ-45 connectors
(568B termination). “Pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors should be avoided, like a bad cliché.
Determine Camera Mount Location and Mount
After determining the optimum lo cation of the camera syste m, route the required Cat-5e cables from the camera to
the head-end Quick-Connect. Test and mark the Cat-5e cables: EZ-POWER VIDEO and RS-232.
The Cat-5e cables should feed-through the cable management slots provided by
all Vaddio mounting options. If the wall mount i s to be mou nted on a 2-gan g wal l
box, use the screws supplied with the wall box cover plate to attach the Thin
Profile Wall Mount Bracket. If mounting to drywall with wall anchors, use the four
(4) quality wall anchors and scre ws provided.
The mounting holes are slotted and are 90° opposing to provide easy leveling.
Level the mount and place the camera on the mount. Connect the marked and
tested Cat-5e cables to the appropriate RJ-45 jacks. Check the level again to
avoid any of those weird Batman camera angle s. Use the provided ¼”-2 0 x .375
mounting screw to attach the Camera to the mount.
System Wiring
Follow the sample wiring diagram (page 11) for connecting the Cat-5e cables to the camera and Quick-Connect
Interface. Additional diagrams are available on the Vaddio web site .
Connect the RoboSHOT camera side as follows:
Connect the EZ-POWER VIDEO Cat-5 to the EZ-POWER VIDEO RJ-45 connector on the RoboSHOT.
Connect the RS-232 control Cat-5 to the RS-232 RJ-45 on the RoboSHOT.
Connect the MATRIX PRO side as follows:
Connect the RS-232 Cat-5 cable to the RS-2 32 connector on the MATRIX PRO.
Connect the EZ-POWER VIDEO Cat-5e to the EZ-POWER VIDEO RJ-45 connector on the MATRIX PRO.
Note: Ple ase chec k all Cat-5 cable s for continuity in advance of final con nection (5 68B). Plugging the
EZ-POWER/VIDEO Cat-5 cable into the wrong RJ-45 or using the wrong pin-out may cause damage
to the camera system and void the warranty!
Power Up
Connect the power supply provided with the MATRIX PRO and Plug the AC side into an AC outlet (thanks Captain
Obvious). Power will travel down the EZ-POWER VIDEO Cat. 5 cable to the camera. The camera will boot up and
in a few seconds and initialize the pan/tilt motors. The MATRIX PRO will auto-identify the camera and load the
specific control protocols for the camera, HSDS (differential) video will travel back down the Cat-5 cable and be
ready to accept control information from MATRIX PRO.
Use a level to
level the mount…

The RoboSHOT camera platform uses a Linux OS and has a built-i n web server for configuration and control from
a web browser via an Ethernet network connection. These web pages will allow the user or administrator to control
the camera, set PTZ presets, set security passwo rds, change the IP address, view diagnostics, access the firmware
upgrade page and more!
Compatible Web Browsers
You may ask, “What are the approved web browsers that work with the RoboSHOT’s embedded web server?”
Chrome
®
(latest version), Firefox
®
(latest version), Internet Explorer
®
(versions 8 through 11) and Safari
®
(versions
6 and 7) have been tested thoroughly with RoboSHOT and are compatible.
DHCP IP Set-up (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP Set-up (skip this section if Static IP). If the LAN has a DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) server, then the IP address,
gateway and routing information will automatically be assigned. The software is defaulted to DHCP and will attempt to dynamically obtain an
IP address using DHCP, but it will fall back to the default address of (169.254.1.1) if no DHCP server can be found.
Static IP Set-up:
The static IP can be assigned either through the network or directly to a computer using a cross-over cable. Depending on the age of the
computer, you may not need a cross-over cable. Either way the steps are the same for network or direct connection to a computer. The defa ult
address of the camera is 169.254.1.1 and the Subnet mask is 255.255.0.0. Different computer OS types all have their own way of doing things
(without question), but they are essentially doing the same stuff, changing the IP address so the web pages of the RoboS HOT are accessible
.
Screen Shot: Login
The RoboSHOT webserver is intended as a user’s camera control page at one level, and an administrator’s
management tool at another level, which requires password authentication for access.
The Login Page will appear if there is a user name assigned by the administrator. Assigning a user name can limit
access to the admin menus by a general user.
By default, the User name is: user, and the password for the User account is: password.
The Administrator can set the name and password for the User account.
By default, the Admin user name is: admin, and the password for the admin account is: password.
If a user or an admin logs in through this screen, then the next page shown will be the camera control page.
The user will only have access to the camera control page.
The Admin will have complete access to all web pages.

Screen Shot: Camera Control Page
This web page provides acce ss to the camera controls for the User and the Admin.
1) Pan, Tilt and Home Controls: These intuitive controls use the up/down and diagonal arrows for camera pan and tilt. The
center button will move the camera to the home position.
2) Zoom Control: The camera’s zoom lens can be controll ed with the “+” to zoom-in and the “-“to zoom out.
3) Pan/Tilt and Zoom Speed Controls: The speed for both the Pan/Tilt and Zoom controls can be adjusted with the three
(3) sliders in this section. For tighter shots, it is recommended that the slower speed is used. T hese controls are for re al -
time camera movements only.
4) Standby: The Standby control puts the camera in low power mode and effectively puts the RoboSHOT to sleep. The
camera will pan 90º from center and 30º down ward (to not collect dust on the lens). W hen the camera is inverted (cei ling
mounted) the camera will pan 90º from center and 30º downward. If the system is on, then the button will be blue and
controls will be visible. If the button is red, no controls are accessible a nd the screen states: Device is in standby. Click
to power-up, then you’ll know what to do.
5) Camera Presets: Twelve (12) camera positi on presets can be recalled simply by clicking a preset number.
6) Store Preset Button: Clicking the Store button opens up a Store Preset pop-up dialog box. To set presets, set up the
camera shot, click on choice of preset number (1 through 12). The preset is stored and the dialog bo x closes. The Store
Preset dialog bow will prompt the oper ator to enter the Tri-Sync speed to the stored camera preset and if the current col or
settings are to be stored with the preset too (see the next page).
7) CCU Scenes: The user has access to the CCU scenes set and stored on the Admin pages. There are three (3) user
definable presets and six (6) presets preconfigured by the technical folks at Vaddio (really Scott set them all) that are meant
to be used in certain lig hting scenarios. These lighting preset s included: Automatic, Incandescent Hi, Incandescent Lo ,
Fluorescent Hi, Fluoresce nt Lo and O utdoor.
8) Administration Menu: By clicking on the Administration menu bar, the Admin Logi n screen will appear.

Screen Shot: Storing Presets
1) Store Preset: When the Store Preset button is clicked (point 6 on previous page), the Store Preset dialog pops into
existence. To save the current camera shot, click one of the Preset buttons (1 through 12), the button will be
highlighted and the dialog box will present the Tri-Sync controls and if the CCU setting are to be kept with the preset.
2) Save with Tri-Sync and Setting the Tri-Sync Speed: The Tri-Synchronous Motion algorithm in the RoboSHOT
cameras is capable of moving all three (pan, tilt and zoom) axes simultaneously. The algorithm calculates the PTZ
position so pan, tilt and zoom start at the same time and arrive at the preset subject simultaneously. Tri-Sync speed
is speed at which all other presets will use to get to the preset being stored. All axes will launch at the same time
and if the next preset position is not too close or too far, axes should simultaneously arrive at the preset location.
Storing the preset with Tri-Sync is fairly straight forward. Here’s a quick method to set Tri-Sync:
a) Position the first preset, click on Store Preset and click o n Preset 1. Check the Save with Tri-Sync box. Move
the tri-Sync speed slider to about the approximate position above (about 1/3 up the speed scale). This is the
speed that all the other presets will use to get to this Preset 1. The speed is stored with the destination preset.
Click on Save to store the camera location and Tri-Sync speed.
b) Set another camera position, and try a different pan, tilt and zoom position and click on Store Preset. Click on
Preset 2 through 12, click on the Save with Tri-Sync box and set the slider to about ½ way this time and click on
Save. These two presets are stored with different preset destination speeds.
c) Click between these two recently stored presets and note the different speeds applied to the 2 presets.
Tri-Sync Notes: If a preset is very close to the previous pr eset, like within10º with no chan ge in zoom , it certainly
doesn’t need to be T ri-Sync’d. If a preset is super-fast and off-air, Tri-Syn c won’t be of much use e ither. Tri-Sync
is a cool tool to set for on-air shots, but the process of setting the speeds will need som e p ractice.
3) Store with Current Color Settings: To save the currently assigned CCU scenes settings, check this box.
4) Click Save or Cancel to exit this pop-up dialog box.

API
The Vaddio Serial Command protocol is a high level text based command line interface supported via telnet session
on the RoboSHOT. The command application protocol interface is intended to allow external device such as AMX
or Crestron to control the camera. Th e protocol is based upon ASCII format following the VT100 terminal emulation
standard and uses an intuitiv e text command nomen clature for ease of use. The API is a ccessed by a telnet client
on the Ethernet port. All ASCII characters will be echoed to terminal program and appended with VT100 string -
ESC[J (HEX- 1B 5B 4A). Vaddio Command lines are terminated on carriage return. After the carriage return, the
VT100 appends with –ESC[J. (Note: Most terminal programs automatically strip the VT100 string.) General
format usage follows a get/set stru cture. Usage examples for each type are:
Set Example
COMMAND: > camera pan right
RESPONSE: > OK
Get Example
COMMAND: > camera home get
RESPONSE: > OK
Syntax Error Example
COMMAND: > camera right pan
RESPONSE: > ERROR
Additional programming controls associated with the terminal protocol includ es:
CTRL 5 - Clears the current serial buffer on the device.
Telnet sessions will require access verification and uses the same username and password associated with the
Administrator account on the embedded web serve r. The default Telnet Port is 23. Command lines are terminated
with a carriage return.
