INTENDED USE Before operating the Ceiling DocCam, please read the entire manual thoroughly. The VideoLabs Ceiling DocCam was designed, built and tested for use indoors, and with the provided power supply. The use of a power supply other than the one provided or outdoor operation has not been tested and could damage the camera or peripheral equipment and/or create a potentially unsafe operating condition. IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS 1. Read and understand all instructions before using. 2.
1) Unpacking and Getting Started 1.1 Contents of Ceiling DocCam Package The following items are included with the Ceiling DocCam (see Figure 1): 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.
3. Cut a 3-1/2” diameter round hole into the front side of the ceiling tile centered on the string. It is strongly recommended to score the front of the tile with a sharp utility knife prior to cutting the tile. The camera module bezel (front ring) will fit into the 3-1/2” opening from the rear of the tile (see Figure 2). Figure 2: Side View – Camera Module Enclosure Bezel (front ring) 4.
5. The tile support rails distribute the weight of the camera into the grid and prevent tile warping. The camera module enclosure and the tile support rails allow for exceptional positioning freedom when used with 2’x2’ and 2’x4’ ceiling tiles (Figure 5). Figure 5: Enclosure and Tile Support Braces Positioned on 2’x2’ Ceiling Tile 6. After the camera module enclosure is positioned above the ceiling, attach the white trim ring to the camera module bezel from the front of the tile and tighten gently.
1.3 Cable Connections The camera module enclosure and 50’ connection cable are plenum rated for use inside plenum return air spaces. The connectors on the back of the camera module enclosure are labeled MAIN and RS-232. The enclosure is also equipped with threaded inserts positioned to enable attachment to a standard electrical box (not provided) and with standard conduit connectors (Figure 8).
wall box or placed in an equipment rack in a surface mount wall box. A 12VDC power supply, 25’ S-video cable and a RCA jack to BNC plug adapter are provided for flexibility in connection to video devices (Figures 10, 11 & 12). Figure 10: Power Supply Attached to Front of Wall Plate Plug the 12VDC power supply into a standard wall outlet (110V-120V) and the jack labeled 12 V DC. Use only the power supply provided with the Ceiling DocCam. Use of any unauthorized power supply will void any and all warranties.
1.4 IR Remote Control The IR Remote Control for the Ceiling DocCam requires 2 ‘AAA’ batteries. Pull up the battery cover tab and insert the batteries, making sure the battery +/terminal symbols line up with the +/- symbols on the inside of the battery compartment. The VideoLabs IR Remote controls Power ON/OFF, Zoom-in and Zoom-out. Other IR Remote Controls The Ceiling DocCam can be ordered to respond to the zoom-in and zoom-out commands of the Polycom® ViewStation IR Remote and the PictureTel® IR Keypad.
1.6 1. 2. 3. 4. Care and Cleaning Do not attempt to take the camera apart. There are no user-serviceable components inside. Do not spill liquids onto the camera. Avoid touching the lens. For smears or smudges, clear any dust with a blower and wipe stains with a glass cleaner and clean, soft cloth. To clean exterior of camera, wipe with a clean damp cloth. Do not use any abrasive chemicals. 1.7 Operating and Storage Conditions 1.

5.0 Quick Connect Guide 1. First connect the 50’ plenum rated, Category 5, RJ-45 plug to RJ-45 plug cable between the RJ-45 jack labeled MAIN on the back of the camera module enclosure and the RJ-45 jack on the back of the provided wall plate. 2. Connect the provided 12VDC power supply to the jack on the front of the plate labeled 12 V DC and plug the power supply into a standard 110V-120V electrical outlet. Use only the provided 12VDC power supply. 3.
Appendix 1 - RS-232C Control Information 1. Communication protocol Communication between the microcomputer of the camera and the PC is available by using the RS-232C protocol. The microcomputer receives each control command given by the PC and echoes it back to the PC. 2. Connect condition Data length Stop bit Parity Baudrate 8 bit 1 bit even 4800 bps 3. Communication data format All communication data consists of eight or ten ASCII characters (8 bytes or 10 bytes).
