Caution
This product is for indoor use. Use an appropriate protective enclosure if installing it outdoors or in a humid
environment.
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.
Use the power source included with or recommended for use with this product. Using the wrong power
supply will void the warranty, and could create unsafe operating conditions or damage the product. Power
supplies for different products may look nearly identical – always check the label for the output voltage.
Cabling Notes
Use Cat-5e or better cable. We recommend using high-quality connectors and a high-quality crimping tool.
Caution
Do not use pass-through RJ-45 connectors. If they are crimped incorrectly, they can damage the
connectors on the product, cause intermittent connections, and degrade signal quality. Physical damage to
the connectors may void your warranty.
Intact – will make reliable contact
with cable connector
Damaged – Bent contact fingers
will NOT make reliable contact
with cable connector
We recommend shielded cabling if the cables will be coiled, run tightly with other cables, or placed close
sources of electromagnetic interference such as power lines.

1. Measure, mark, and level the mounting position between two studs.
2. Holding the enclosure in place against the wall studs, mark the locations for the holes.
3. Set the camera enclosure aside and drill the holes.
4. Fasten the camera enclosure to the wall studs.
5. Route the camera cable into the enclosure.
Installing the Camera Enclosure in a Finished Wall
Follow these steps if the drywall is in place.
Warning
Before cutting the opening for the camera enclosure, ensure that no wiring and no pipes are present in or
immediately adjacent to the area that the camera enclosure will be set into.
Cutting or drilling into electrical wiring can cause electrical shock or fire, resulting in death, injury, and
damage to the building.
Cutting or drilling into gas pipes can cause explosion or fire, resulting in death, injury, and damage to the
building.
Cutting or drilling into water or wastewater lines can result in injury and damage to the building.
1. Verify that no pipes or wiring pass through or immediately adjacent to the part of the wall where the
camera enclosure will be mounted.
2. Level, measure, and mark the cutting lines for the opening.
3. Cut the opening.
4. Slide the drywall clips into the corners of the enclosure.
Note
Although the drywall clips are not visually symmetrical, they can be installed with either curved surface
facing forward, depending on the corner in which they are placed.
5. Install the side brackets using 1/4 in. 6-32 screws.
6. Route the camera cable into the enclosure.
7. Slide the enclosure into place.
8. Use the 10-32 screws to attach the drywall clips to the side brackets. The clips tilt outward and engage
the drywall as you tighten the screws.
11

Web Interface
The camera's web interface allows control via a network connection, using a browser. Password-protected
pages provide administrative access to tasks such as setting passwords, changing the IP address,
viewing diagnostics, and installing firmware updates. The user login (or guest access, if it is
enabled)provides access to camera controls similar to those available from the IR remote.
You will need to know the camera's IP address to use its web interface. If the network 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. If not, you will need to configure the camera to use a static IP address.
The OneLINK device powering the camera has its own web interface. Refer to the appropriate OneLINK
manual for information on its web interface.
Getting the Camera's IP Address
You will need to be able to view the camera's video output.
1. Press the Data Screen button on the remote. The display presents the camera's IP address and MAC
address.
2. Press the Data Screen button again to dismiss the information.
If the address is 169.254.1.1, the camera is using its default IP address. This usually means one of these
things:
nThe network automatically assigns IP addresses, but the camera is not connected to the network.
nThe network does not automatically assign IP addresses, and you need to configure the camera for the
network. See Configuring the Camera with a Static IP Address.
Accessing the Web Interface
Enter the IP address or hostname in your browser's address bar. You may need to enter http:// or
https:// as a prefix to keep the browser from treating it as a search query.
(Example:http://10.30.200.125)

Changing to a Static IP Address in a DHCP Network
NETWORKING PAGE
In a network that assigns IP addresses automatically, the camera's IP address may change from time to
time. To keep this from happening, set the IP address to Static. Do not change the IP address, subnet
mask, or gateway.
Specifying Time Zone and NTP Server
NETWORKING PAGE
Using automatic NTP updating ensures that the timestamps in the camera's diagnostic log are accurate.
Specifying your time zone may make it easier to match logged events with other actions and external
events.
1. To make the time zone and NTP server editable, enable Automatic NTP Updating.
2. Select the desired time zone from the list.
3. If desired, specify the NTP server to use. Otherwise, use the default.

Lighting and Color Adjustments: Setting up Custom CCU Scenes
CAMERA PAGE
No two rooms are exactly alike – but a lot of rooms are a lot alike. The technical folks at Vaddio (Scott, to
be specific) have already set up presets for common lighting scenarios (CCU scenes)– Incandescent Hi,
Incandescent Lo, Fluorescent Hi, Fluorescent Lo, and Outdoor. The Auto setting allows the camera to
determine the appropriate adjustments.
When adjusting for the room lighting, start with a factory-defined CCU scene and adjust as needed. After
you customize the camera's color and lighting settings, you can save the adjustments as a custom CCU
scene.
To make the initial adjustments:
Click one of the active CCU scene buttons to load a CCU scene into the camera.
Note
Color adjustments are not available when the Auto CCU scene is selected.
32
Complete Manual for the RoboSHOT IW Architectural PTZ Conferencing Camera
To set up custom color and lighting settings:
1. Fine-tune the color and lighting as needed using the Color Settings controls.
oAuto Iris allows the camera to compensate automatically for the light level.
oBacklight Compensation (available with Auto Iris) reduces contrast to adjust for bright light behind
the main subject of the shot. This setting can't be used with Wide Dynamic Range.
oWide Dynamic Range (available with Auto Iris) increases the contrast between the brightest and
darkest areas. This setting can't be used with Backlight Compensation
oAuto White Balance adjusts color automatically. Red gain and blue gain controls are not available
when Auto White Balance is selected.
oRed Gain and Blue Gain provide manual color adjustment.
oDetail adjusts the image sharpness.
oChroma adjusts the color intensity.
oGamma adjusts the range between bright areas and shadows.
The Color and Lighting Cheat Sheet may be helpful.
2. When the scene looks the way you want it to, click Store CCU Scene.
3. In the Store CCU Scene dialog box, select which custom scene to store (Custom A, B, or C) and select
Save.
4. Optional: Name the new scene by right-clicking its button. A dialog box opens. Enter the name and
save it.
If you make a change that you don't like, start over by selecting and then deselecting Auto White Balance.
Note
If the video looks grainy or “noisy,” try a lower Detail setting. As in conversation, too much detail is bad.

Setting the Custom Home Position and Other Preset Shots
CAMERA PAGE
The camera's default home position is 0° pan and 0° tilt; you can set a different home position.
You can also define other presets, for shots that you will want to use repeatedly. Presets may include
lighting and color settings and may specify Tri-Synchronous Motion or global preset speed settings.
Note
Storing a preset overwrites any information that was previously associated with that preset. The Store
Preset dialog does not show which presets have already been defined. Vaddio recommends renaming
presets when you store them.
To store a preset or custom home position:
1. Set up the shot.
2. Select Store to open the Store Preset dialog.
3. Select the preset to define, then save it.
Renaming Presets and Custom CCU Scenes

Telnet Command Reference
Vaddio's Telnet command protocol is a high-level, text-based command line interface supported via Telnet
session to the camera. Network connectivity and a Telnet client are required; the default Telnet port is 23.
Telnet sessions require the administrator account login.
The command application protocol interface is intended to allow external devices such as AMX or Crestron
to control the camera. The protocol is based upon ASCII format following the VT100 terminal emulation
standard and uses an intuitive text command nomenclature for ease of use.
General format usage follows a get/set structure. Usage
examples for each type are:
Set Example
COMMAND: > camera zoom in
RESPONSE: > OK
Get Example
COMMAND: > camera ccu get iris
RESPONSE: > iris 11
Syntax Error Example
COMMAND: > camera preset 1
RESPONSE: > Syntax error: Unknown or incomplete command
Using a question mark as a command parameter will bring up a list of available commands for the menu
you are in.
Things to know about control via Telnet session:
nCommand lines are terminated with a carriage return.
nAll ASCII characters (including carriage returns)are echoed to the terminal program and appended with
the VT100 string ESC[J (hex 1B 5B 4A), which most terminal programs automatically strip.
nCTRL-5 Clears the current serial buffer on the device.
Typographical conventions:
n{x | y | z} – Choose x, y, or z. Example: camera led {on | off | toggle }
n<variable> – Substitute the desired value here. Example:camera ccu get <param>
n< x - y > – Valid range of values is from x through y. Example:camera ccu set detail <0..15>
n[parameter] – Parameter is not required. Example:camera pan left [<speed>]

RS-232 Serial Command Reference
The Vaddio RS-232 Serial Control Protocol is available if the camera is installed with a OneLINK device. It
is similar to the Sony®VISCA command set in order to be compatible with several popular control devices.
Not all VISCA commands are supported, and there are Vaddio-specific commands in the following
command and inquiry lists.
Be sure the camera is set to the same baud rate as the controller or other device originating the commands.

Troubleshooting and Care
Stuff happens – we get it. Use this information to determine whether it's time to call Vaddio Technical
Support.
Check the Status Light First
When the camera doesn't behave as you expect, check the indicator light before you do anything else.
nBlue: Normal operation (blinks once when the camera receives a command from the remote)
nRed: On-air tally
nBlinking red:Video is muted (UC LED color scheme only)
nPurple: In standby mode or booting
nYellow: Firmware update in progress
If the status light is off, check whether it is disabled. (Web interface: System page, DIP Switches tab;
Telnet: camera led get.)
Power/Responsiveness Issues
What is it doing? Possible causes Check and correct
Nothing. The status light is
off, there is no video, and
the camera does not
respond to the remote.
The camera is not receiving power. Is the camera's power source
(OneLINK device or PoE+ injector)
receiving power?
Is the camera's cable connected to the
power source?
If both are true, either the camera cable
or the camera is bad.
The camera's status light is turned
off and the camera is in standby
mode.
Point the remote toward the camera
and press the Power button.
The camera's status light is turned
off and the remote is not using the
same IR channel as the camera.
Push the Camera Select 1 button on
the remote. Try the other Camera
Select buttons if necessary.
The camera's status light is off and
the camera is confused.
Reboot or power-cycle the camera.
The camera never finishes
initializing and the light is
purple. The web interface is
not available.
The camera is not receiving
enough power. Is a PoE power
injector connected?
Use PoE+instead. PoE does not
deliver enough power for a PTZ
camera.
The PoE+ power injector is bad. Contact your reseller or Vaddio
Technical Support.
The camera does not
respond to the remote and
the light is yellow.
A firmware update is in progress. Wait a few minutes, and try again when
the light turns blue.
66
Complete Manual for the RoboSHOT IW Architectural PTZ Conferencing Camera
Video and Streaming Issues
What is it doing? Possible causes Check and correct
Blue or black video. The
camera's web interface is
available and the camera
responds to the directional
controls on the remote.
Video is muted. Select the Mute button in the web
interface. This button is available on
every page of the web interface.
No H.264 video stream. Streaming is not enabled. Enable streaming: Streaming page in
the web interface.
Camera Control and Other Issues
What is it doing? Possible causes Check and correct
The camera does not
respond to the remote, but
the web interface is
available.
The remote and the camera are not
using the same IR channel.
Press the Camera Select 1 button on
the remote. Try the other Camera
Select buttons if necessary.
IR is switched off (Soft DIP switch
3 down)
Turn IR on (System page, DIP
Switches tab). See Software Switch
Settings for more information.
The remote's batteries are dead. Put new batteries in the remote.
The camera responds to
the remote but not to the
web interface.
The web interface is controlling a
different camera. (Check by
removing power from the camera;
the web interface should become
unavailable.)
Check the camera's IP address. See
Getting the camera's IP address.
More than one device is using this
IP address.
The camera responds to
the remote but the web
interface is not available.
The camera is not using the IP
address you browsed to.
Press the Data Screen button on the
remote to see camera information.
The camera responds to
the web interface but does
not respond to commands
via RS-232 connection to
the OneLINK device.
The RS-232 cable to the OneLINK
device is not connected, or is bad.
Connect a known good cable.
The camera's baud rate setting
doesn't match the settings on the
controlling device.
Check the baud rate setting at both
ends to be sure they match. The
camera's baud rate setting is available
on the System page in the web UI.
The camera loses all its
settings when power is
cycled.
All the DIP switches are in the ON
(down) position.
Set the DIP switches to their proper
positions. Default is all OFF (up). See
Switch Settings for more information.

Restoring Factory Settings from the Web Interface
SYSTEM PAGE, FIRMWARE TAB
Sometimes it’s easiest to just start over. To restore the original factory settings…click Restore Factory
Settings. This will overwrite everything you have customized – custom CCU scenes and presets, soft DIP
switch settings, passwords, room labels, and more. For this reason, you may want to back up (export) the
camera's configuration after you set up the customizations you want. See Saving (Exporting) or Restoring
(Importing)a Configuration.
Correcting a Motor Calibration Fault
If the camera is jostled during installation or service, the motors may need to recalibrate. The status light
blinks yellow in this case, if it is enabled.
To correct the fault, do one of these things:
nUsing the IR Remote Commander: Press the Pan/Tilt Reset button.
nFrom the web interface: On the System page, select Pan/Tilt Reset.
nVia a Telnet connection, issue the command camera recalibrate.
