OVERVIEW
The Vaddio WallVIEW CCU H700 is built around the Sony
BRC-H700 high definition PTZ Camera. The WallVIEW CCU
H700 allows the user to control the color output of the
camera’s image sensor, through both Red and Blue Gain
knobs, Detail, as well as Iris and Gain levels, to provide a
higher quality image. In addition, there are also Color Hue,
Color Gain and White Balance Shift adjustments for added
fine-tuning of the cameras image. The system uses high Figure 1:
speed differential signaling (HSDS), an active transmission WallVIEW CCU H700 System with Camera,
Wall Mount and EZIM CCU (behind camera)
system that delivers low-loss, high-quality video over Cat. 5
cabling distances up to 500 feet.
The WallVIEW CCU H700 system is capable of high definition (HD) 1080i resolution component video in
either NTSC or PAL formats. There are also has many new features, including Tally illumination on the
camera which allows the presenter to know which camera is live, as well as Genlock delivered to the camera
over CAT-5. Other new features include the ability to store settings on two discrete Scene buttons, and
buttons for Auto White Balance, One Push White Balance and Auto Iris. Like all Vaddio WallVIEW systems,
the Thin Profile Wall Mount and mounting hardware is included.

Figure 2: The Quick-Connect CCU System uses a Cat. 5 (all 4-pairs) for power to ensure the motors receive the required
current to operate properly. The Video Cat. 5 cable uses all four pairs for video. The RS-232 Cat. 5 provides communication
to the camera for CCU and PTZ control and G/L (where applicable) to the camera. These Cat. 5 cables can be run up to
500’ (152.4m). See Appendix 1 for wiring and pin-out information. NOTE: A direct RS-232 Cat. 5 cable is required for each
Quick-Connect CCU and camera. Daisy-Chain configurations are not supported.

WallVIEW CCU H700
Tally Light:
The blue LED tally light on the front panel is tied to the tally contacts on the rear panel allowing the user to
easily track which camera interface is being used in a multi-camera system by supplying a simple contact
closure (i.e. from ProductionVIEW Super Joystick or ProductionVIEW HD).
LCD Display:
Backlit (blue) display indicates which mode is active (CCU CONTROL or PTZ CONTROL) and the value of
the parameter being adjusted. In CCU CONTROL mode, when a rotary encoder is touched, the name of the
control being actuated and the value of that assigned parameter will be displayed.
Scene A and B:
Two camera adjustment scenes (A & B) can be stored into microprocessor memory. When lit (backlit blue
SPDT switch), the scene is activated. To store a scene, the user adjusts the camera to taste and touches
and holds the scene button down until the button blinks.
Detail:
The Detail control sharpens or softens objects in the frame.
AWB:
The Automatic White Balance controls/adjusts the color levels automatically when engaged. Turn off AWB
to manually adjust the Red and Blue levels, as well as Red, Green and Blue Enhance.
OPWB:
One-Push White Balance control allows the user to set the white balance with one push (the camera must
see 60% of the image as white in order to operate). OPWB overrides AWB and Red/Blue controls when
activated.
Auto Iris:
The Auto Iris mode automatically adjusts the iris and gain of the camera. To manually adjust the iris or gain,
turn off this control.
Manual Iris:
The manual iris control allows the user to set the iris manual to one of the 18 settings available.
Gain:
The Gain control adjusts the overall gain of the camera. To manually adjust the gain Auto Iris must be off.

Power on RJ-45:
Power is provided on a Cat. 5 cable to EZIM CCU.
RS-232 IN on RJ-45:
RS-232 Input from ProductionVIEW or PTZ controller. Daisy Chain control is not supported.
Y-Gain:
Adjusts Y-Gain and allows the user to fine tune the video signal especially over longer cable lengths. Adjust
to taste and system requirements.
Distance:
Distance Adjustments for Cat. 5 cable (<100’, 200’, 300’, 400’+) equalizes the length of the twisted pairs for
improved video performance.
Video Outputs:
Four Video Signals at any one time can be transmitted from the EZIM CCU concurrently allowing the CCU
system to return HD and SD at the same time. Note: Simultaneous SD requires the Sony HFBK-SD1 Card.
Video RJ-45
Return of the camera’s four (4) video signals from the EZIM CCU to the Quick-Connect CCU on Cat. 5 cable.

INSTALLATION
All WallVIEW products are specifically designed for installation on a vertical wall surface with Cat. 5 cable
connectivity for Power, Video and Control signaling. Installation is simplified in that no custom 8-Pin mini-din
cables or expensive S-Video plenum cables are needed and no power outlets are required near the camera
bracket. All cabling is routed to the head-end using Cat. 5 cables.
Before Installing
• Find the appropriate camera mounting location, 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. Pick a mounting location to optimize the performance of the camera.
• Pre-wire all cabling as required (see wiring diagram examples).
• The Thin Profile Wall Mount for the WallVIEW CCU H700 can be mounted directly to a 3-gang wall box
or can be mounted to drywall using four dry wall anchors.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1:
After determining the optimum location of the camera system, mark locations for the four screw holes and
cable pass-thru (vertical oval). Install the drywall mounts and cut the hole for the cable pass-thru. At this
point, do not install the Wall Mount.
Figure 3:

The wall mount may be mounted directly to a 3-gang wall
box or to drywall with the appropriate wall anchors.
Step 2:
Connect the 25-pin cable to the EZIM CCU. Next, mount the EZIM CCU and break out cable in the base of
the wall mount, using the two tapped screw holes (see Figure 4).

Mount (right)

Step 4:
Take the Wall Mount, with the EZIM CCU and break out cable installed, and place it against the drywall
anchors or 3-gang wall box, making sure to pull the Cat. 5 cables through the oval pass-through hole.
Finger-tighten the screws to the mount and confirm that the base is level. Tighten the screws firmly. If the
bracket is to be mounted on a 3-gang wall box, use the screws supplied with the electrical box.
Step 5:
Confirm that the Cat. 5 cables are terminated correctly, by testing them with a continuity tester. Next,
connect the break out cables to the appropriate ports on the BRC-H700 (8-pin Mini DIN is connected to
VISCA IN). Secure the camera to the mount and using the ¼”-20 screws.
Step 6:
The Quick-Connect CCU is a 1-RU rack mount interface that breaks out the signals from the Cat. 5 cables
back to the standard connectors. The basic system connectivity is illustrated in Figure 2.
Note: Plugging the POWER CAT-5 Cable into the wrong RJ-45 may cause damage to the camera system and
void the warranty.
