About Manual Operation
When you need to control the camera in manual mode rather than using Autoframing, you can use
nThe RF remote
nThe web interface (accessible from your computer's browser or using a Vaddio Device Controller)
nA third-party control device
When you use the manual controls, Autoframing pauses. It's similar to cruise control in a car:Using a preset or
directional control is like tapping the brake pedal. The camera remains under manual control until you resume
Autoframing.
Operating the Camera from the Web Interface
The web interface is available on the Vaddio Device Controller touch panel (if your installation uses one) or from
a computer’s web browser.
The operator's Camera page provides most of the same controls as the remote:
nAudio and video mute
nCamera standby
nPan, tilt, and zoom
nCamera presets, if any have been stored
nCustom color/lighting settings, if any have been stored
If your installation does not include a Vaddio Device Controller or other control surface, contact the system
administrator to find out how to access the web interface.

Muting Audio and Video
Use the audio mute button to stop sending audio. Use the video mute button to temporarily stop sending video
from the camera without placing it in standby.
Use the RF remote to control volume.
Managing the Camera Ready State
Use the Standby button to switch between low-power (standby) and ready states.
Moving the Camera
Use the arrow buttons for camera pan and tilt.The center button moves the camera to the home position.
Zooming In or Out
Use the Zoom + button to zoom in and the Zoom– button to zoom out.
Moving the Camera to a Preset Position
Use the Preset buttons (if available)to move the camera to any of its programmed positions. Presets are only
available if they have been set in the administrative interface or with the RF remote.

Operating the Camera with the RF Remote
The RF remote provides basic in-conference functionality – pan, tilt, zoom, presets, volume control, and muting.
You can also use it to get the camera's IP address. When you have the IP address, you can open the camera's
web interface.
Before you can use the remote, you will need to:
nInstall the batteries
nPair the remote with the camera
IntelliSHOT cameras are not compatible with IRremotes.
Installing the Batteries
The remote uses two AAA batteries.
1. Remove the cover from the back of the remote. You may need to press down on the inner edge while
sliding it off.
2. Install the batteries as shown in the diagram in the battery opening.
3. Slide and snap the cover back into place.
Pairing the Remote to the Camera
The camera does not recognize or respond to the remote until they are paired. Do this after the camera is
turned on and its status light is white.
1. Press and hold the IP button on the connector panel until the status light blinks cyan.
2. While the status light blinks cyan, press the pairing button on the remote. The camera's status light
changes to steady white when the pairing is complete. You may need to press the remote's pairing
button more than once.
3. If the status light changes from blinking cyan to blinking blue, this indicates a pairing error: The pairing
was not successful and pairing mode has timed out. Go back to step 1. If the problem persists, contact
Vaddio Technical Support.
