ControlVIEW™
Pan/Tilt/Zoom Camera Control Systems
• ControlVIEW is a one or two camera controller for an automated camera control system. The ControlVIEW will work with any VISCA compatible PTZ camera (such as the Sony® EVI Series). The ControlVIEW Camera Controller controls one or two Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera(s) and positions them to any of 12 user selected preset locations when triggered by an external device. In a two camera operation the camera video source is switched automatically to match the selected camera preset. The ControlVIEW can be controlled by many types of electronic equipment and be programmed differently depending upon the application.
Polycom® and Tandberg® Video Codecs
Vaddio’s ControlVIEW can be integrated with the Polycom Viewstation™ FX and EX models and with the VS4000 by using the RS-232 port. In a Polycom control set-up, the codec stores the preset memory locations (up to ten presets) and allows near/far-end control of two cameras. Tandberg codecs can also be controller viathe RS-232 port. In a Tandberg control configuration, the Tandberg has 15 preset memory locations, 3 arecontrolled by the Tandberg remote control or by microphones. The other 12 can be controlled by the ControlVIEW Camera Controller.
Control Systems
The Vaddio ControlVIEW can also be integrated with a control system such as Creston or AMX by using the RS-232 control port.
Program Features
• Switching Delay Settings
Both the camera switching delay and the video switching delay can be programmed to select the
appropriate delay time before switching to the default position or another camera. The settings are
2.5, 5 and 10 seconds. There is also an OFF position which turns off the default position function.
• Preset Recall ON/OFF
When the preset recall is ON, the system switches to the default camera and user selected preset. When
the preset recall if OFF, only the default camera video is selected.
• Default Camera Selector
Selects what camera will be default camera.
• Polycom or Tandberg
Video switcher is disabled because camera switching is done through the video codec.
• Crestron or AMX
The ControlVIEW allows RS-232 control through the external port.

Applications
Distance Learning
In education applications for videoconferencing, there are many applications in which the professor wants to teach the class in the local environment and have the entire presentation shown via video at a remote location.
The Vaddio ControlVIEW in this application plays the vital role of camera manager so that the professor can teach the course rather than having to control the camera and video system. The ControlVIEW can be set to view several areas from which the professor likes to present (podium, whiteboard, blackboard, etc.). As the professor presents from each of these areas, the ControlVIEW can automatically adjust the camera in the room to each position to ensure that the entire presentation by the professor is sent over the videoconference.
As in any classroom, students will be asking questions throughout the professor’s presentation. As students ask their questions, the ControlVIEW, when used with a MicVIEW or audio mixer, can redirect the camera to view the student as they are speaking and then return to viewing the professor as he/she responds. All of this is possible with the ControlVIEW without ever requiring the professor to control the system. All the participants are seen and heard.
Conference Room
In cases where conference rooms are being designed both to optimize meetings and/or have videoconference sessions, the Vaddio ControlVIEW can play a crucial role.
In this application, the room could be designed with a microphone placed at each participant’s chair. When they speak, the microphone triggers the ControlVIEW to recall that position so that the person is seen and heard over the conference. The system can then be set to return the camera to the chairperson of the conference, or it can move to the next person.
Church
In many churches, there are sound reinforcement systems which provide high quality audio from the altar, music or choir sections of the building. The next step in church presentation is automating a camera system to track the priest or minister during services to show the image up on a large screen in front or to broadcast the service internally to the overflow areas or childrens rooms. The Vaddio ControlVIEW system can manage multiple cameras to track the presenters motions around the altar as heor she speaks. This eliminates the need for a person to work behind a video camera to maintain video throughout the service. The ControlVIEW can be integrated with a wide range of audio mixer systems for use in applications such as church presentations.
