WallVIEW HD-20 Overview:
The WallVIEW HD-20 HD PTZ camera with Vaddio’s EZCamera™
Cat-5e cabling system using HSDS™, Vaddio delivers a system
that allows for easy installation and integration of camera systems.
The HD-20 camera is built around a 6.49mm diagonal (1/2.8 Type)
high-speed CMOS image sensor with a total of 3.27M pixels and a
20x optical zoom lens, making it the ideal choice for a wide range of
high definition video applications. In addition to the HDMI output,
(720p, 1080i or 1080p), the camera comes with a simultaneous
analog component YPbPr HD output.
Because the camera module is built around a new, high speed
CMOS image sensor with an increased pixel aperture size, high
frame rate, high signal to noise, using the column-parallel A/D
conversion method, the resolution, saturation and the sensitivity of
the sensor is increased and the HD-20 achieves improved picture
quality even in low light environments requiring a minimum
illumination of just 1.6 LUX.
The 11-element 20x optical zoom lens with HiLD™ (High Index Low Dispersion) Glass allows WallVIEW HD-20 to
capture a wide angle of view (55.2° wide end) enough to view everyone at a conference room table, as well as
capture an individual from a long distance (2.9° tele end). The zoom range provides greater flexibility for a wide
variety of applications. Pan range is +170 to -170 degrees, and Tilt range is -30 to +90 degrees.
The HD-20 is paired with the Quick-Connect SR Interface, which provides power to the camera and returns HSDS
video from the camera up to 100’ (30.5m) over a single Cat-5e cable. RS-232 control and IR signals (modulated
or non-modulated) can be passed from the camera to third-party equipment, such as videoconferencing codecs
on a second Cat-5e cable. The WallVIEW HD-20 is great for integration projects since no power supply is
required at the camera location. The WallVIEW HD-20 is an exceptional camera for a wide range of HD video
applications such as houses of worship, corporate boardrooms, live events and distance-learning.
Intended Use:
Before operating the device, please read the entire manual thoroughly. The system was designed, built and
tested for use indoors, and with the provided power supply and cabling. The use of a power supply other than the
one provided or outdoor operation has not been tested and could damage the device and/or create a potentially
unsafe operating condition.
Important Safeguards:
Read and understand all instructions before using. Do not operate any device if it has been dropped or damaged.
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 extremely humid conditions.
Save These Instructions:
The information contained in this manual will help you install and operate your product. If these instructions are
misplaced, Vaddio keeps copies of Specifications, Installation and User Guides and most pertinent product
drawings for the Vaddio product line on the Vaddio website. These documents can be downloaded from
www.vaddio.com free of charge.
Use only the power supply provided with the system. Use of any
unauthorized power supply 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™
signals. For best results please use standard RJ-45 connectors and test all cables for proper
