Installation
The VPC800 can be mounted on top of a display(such as TV set and monitor), wall-mounted,
ceiling-mounted, or placed horizontally, which you can select based on the site requirements.
If the displayis thicker than 170 mm or the display is wall-mounted, the VPC800 can be
installed in any possible way other than be mounted on top of the display.
If the display is 170 mm or thinner, the VPC800 can be mounted on top of a display or placed
horizontally.
Placed Horizontally
Place the camera on a flat surface.
If you have to place the camera on a sloping surface,
ensure that the slope is less than ±15° or the camera may
not function properly.
Mounted on Top of a Display
Use the L-shaped bracket and its accessories to secure the
4
VPC800 on top of the display. The following figure shows
the installation procedure.
5
Wall-Mounted
Use the L-shaped bracket and its accessories to mount the VPC800 on
the wall.
Prepare the hammer drill, rechargeable battery-powered electric
screwdriver, hammer, and Phillips screwdriver by yourself.
Drill four holes in the wall for mounting the bracket, each with a
diameter of 8 mm (0.31 in.) and depth of 35 mm (1.38 in.). The two
holes in the upper part must be parallel to the horizontal plane to ensure
that the endpoint is horizontally installed. Then follow the steps in the
following figure to install the VPC800.
6
7
Ceiling-Mounted
Purchase a bracket for inverted installation and mount the VPC800 onto
the ceiling using the bracket. The bracket must meet the following
requirements:
It is able to bear a weight of at least 10.5 kg (18.74 lb) and has a
thickness between 2 mm (0.08 in.) to 3 mm (0.12 in.).
It comes with a location pillar, which can be inserted into the location
hole of the VPC800. The distance between the screw hole on the bracket
and location pillar must be 14.5 mm (0.57 in.), which is also the distance
between the two holes on the bottom of the VPC800.
It comes with a screw hole and one or more 1/4"-20UNC screw.
Note
When attaching the purchased bracket and VPC800, it is recommended
that you use a 1/4"-20UNC screw delivered with the purchased bracket
rather than a 1/4"-20UNC screw delivered with the VPC800 because the
length of the latter may be too long or too short to hold up the purchased
bracket.
Others

Powering the Camera On
Connect the cables and power adapter to the camera and press the power button. About 18
seconds later, video is displayed on the display device. The camera faces forward the first time
you power it on. Afterward, the camera restores to the position before its power-off each time the
camera is powered on.
If the HD-VI port of the camera is connected to a TEX0 videoconferencing endpoint or a TX
series videoconferencing endpoint, you do not need to connect the power adapter to the camera
8
or press the power button. When the videoconferencing endpoint is powered on, it supplies
power to the camera to power the camera on.

Troubleshooting
Question
Why can't I use PTZ to control the camera from an HD videoconferencing
endpoint?
Answer
The serial connection between the camera and the HD videoconferencing
endpoint is incorrect.
The serial port of the HD videoconferencing endpoint type is set incorrectly.
Question
Why does the camera fail its startup diagnosis along with one of the following
symptoms: 1) The camera fails to start. 2) The PTZ generates abnormal noise. 3)
Nothing is displayed on the camera screen?
Answer
A nonstandard power adapter may be used. The standard one provides a 12 V DC
output.
The connector at the low-voltage side of the camera's power adapter has been
reconstructed, or the cable of this power connector has been extended. If the
cable of the camera adapter is not long enough, extend the cable of the power
socket.
Question
Why is the camera video not displayed on the display connected to the HD
videoconferencing endpoint?
Answer
The HD videoconferencing endpoint and camera are not connected correctly.
The input and output settings on the HD videoconferencing endpoint are
incorrect.
The HD videoconferencing endpoint does not support the camera's video format.
The display does not support the video output format set on the HD
videoconferencing endpoint.
Question
Why does the display fail to display any video after the camera has worked for a
period?
Answer
Check the camera's working environment. For example, check whether the
cables are connected securely, whether the voltage is stable, and whether heat is
dissipated properly.
Question
Why is the camera video displayed unclearly or why cannot the camera
automatically adjust its focus after the camera is powered on?
Answer
The lens surface is not clean, with dust, fingerprint, or mist on it.
The camera is not in autofocus mode.
15
To set the camera to autofocus mode, perform the following operations:
Press on the remote control to access the camera control page. On the
remote control interface, select Adjust Focus, use the direction keys to select
on the remote control to set the camera to autofocus mode.
The distance between the object and the camera is less than 0.7 meters, or the
camera shooting angle is improperly set.
Question
Do the cameras support daisy chain cascade control? If daisy chain cascade
control is supported, how are the cameras connected and controlled? How are the
camera address codes set? Why cannot the cameras be controlled after they are
connected?
Answer
The Huawei VPC800 camera supports the Video System Control Architecture
(VISCA) protocol and cascade control.
Connection method: Use a keyboard that supports the VISCA protocol to
connect the cameras. Connect the VISCA IN port of the first camera to the
VISCA keyboard. Then, connect the VISCA OUT port of the first camera to the
VISCA IN port of the second camera, the VISCA OUT port of the second
camera to the VISCA IN port of the third camera, and so on. A maximum of
seven cameras can be connected in this serial connection mode.
The VISCA protocol supports cascade control of a maximum of seven cameras.
The address codes are automatically negotiated and increase by 1 from the first
camera to the seventh camera.
If the control is abnormal, check the cables and their connections. Ensure that the
cables and their connections are normal. Ensure that the keyboard can properly
control the first camera. If the first camera can be properly controlled but the
other ones cannot, check the cable length. Ensure that the cable length does not
exceed 50 meters. If the fault persists, restart the keyboard and the cameras.
