Menu item Protocol Camera map Start Set 16 Parameter - Camera select Camera addr Video channel UDP addr - Parameter value SAMSUNG, PELCO-D, VISCA, CUSTOM, VCA-UDP 001 to 016 Off, 001 to 255 Off, 001 to 255 Off, 001 to 255 01 to 16 Description Select a protocol for the communication between the conference controller and a camera according to the camera in use. If a third-party central controller is used, select "CUSTOM" and no longer need to set "Camera map" and "Start Set". Camera select: Select a camera. Up to 16 cameras are supported. Camera addr: Set the address of the camera selected in "Camera select". Need to set a camera address for the SAMSUNG and PELCO-D protocols. If the selected protocol is VISCA, set the parameter to Off. Video channel: Bind the current camera address. If no video matrix switch is connected to the conference controller, set the parameter to Off. Note: Repeat the following operations to set the next camera: "Camera Select""Camera addr" "Video channel". The conference controller records the parameter settings of each camera. UDP addr: Bind the IP address of a network camera. If the selected protocol is VCA-UDP, the camera IP address is required. Select the current camera (No. 01 to 16), and then set the microphone position of each unit for tracking. The steps are as follows: Step 1: Set the parameter to "01", which corresponds to camera 01. Step 2: Use the remote control to adjust the camera to track the microphone of www.vissonic.com Freeze Time Video Mode Camera Track - 00s to 30s Normal/Recorder On/Off the first unit in the camera coverage. Step 3: Press the on/off button of the photographed microphone. Step 4: Use the remote control to adjust the camera to track the microphone of the next unit in the camera coverage. Step 5: Press the on/off button of the photographed microphone. Step 6: Repeat Step 4 and Step 5 to set all microphones in the coverage of camera 01. Step 7: Set the parameter to "02", which corresponds to camera 02. Step 8: Execute Step 2 to 6 to complete the setting of camera 02. Complete the tracking settings for all the other cameras in the same way. Step 9: After setting the last camera for the microphone of the last unit, adjust the camera to get a panoramic view of the conference and then press "ESC" to exit the "Start Set" menu. The panoramic view is called when the microphones of all units are turned off. Delay time needed for the camera tracking controller to switch the camera view. The delay time ranges from 0 to 30 seconds. Two video modes are optional. Select "Recorder" when VIS-CRS02/03/04/05B or VIS-CRS02/03/05A is used. Enables or disables the camera tracking feature. Table 7.2 "CAMERA" menu list of VISSONIC conference controller The following example shows how to set two cameras when the protocol VISCA, SAMSUNG/PELCO-D, or CUSTOM is used. 1. Connect the camera (or a third-party central controller) to the lower COM port of the CONTROL interface on the conference controller. Cameras using the VISCA protocol. 17 www.vissonic.com Cameras using the SAMSUNG/PELCO-D protocol. 2. Connect the RS232 port of the camera tracking controller to the upper COM port of the CONTROL interface on the conference controller. Connect to the VIS-CATC-A camera tracking controller through RS232. 3. If the CUSTOM protocol is used (that is, a third-party central controller is used), no longer need to set "Camera map" and "Start Set". 4. If the VISCA or SAMSUNG/PELCO-D protocol is used: a) Enter the "Camera map" submenu, select a camera, set the camera address, and bind the address. For specific operations, please refer to the parameter description in Table 7.2. b) Enter the "Start Set" submenu, and then use the camera remote control, keyboard, or CLEACON software to set the tracking position for each camera one by one. For specific operations, please refer to the parameter description in Table 7.2. 18
