Endzone Tower Setup

30' Tower Setup

Insert the tower into the base plate with wheels and then extend all 4 locking legs:

Then tighten all 4 knobs:

DON'T RAISE THE TOWER YET!

 

20' Tower Setup

Loosen the top mast knob and start spreading the three legs. It's easiest to anchor one leg against the ground and pull apart:

Expand the legs as wide as possible and then loosen the lower mast knob:

Lower the center mast pole to the ground and then re-tighten the lower knob:

Lastly, tighten the upper mast knob:

DON'T RAISE THE TOWER YET!

Wireless Camera Setup:

(Pictured: Many versions of the Wireless Camera Head)

 

Step 1. Take the Wireless Camera out of the hard case and Plug the USB extender cable from the camera to the battery and plug in the Zoom Cord

Your handycam will come with a USB extension cable. It will normally be marked with white tape as pictured below. Use this to connect the handycam to the battery on the front of the Smart Head where it says "Camera" in white.

IMPORTANT! - The Sony camera has its own internal battery and it is highly recommended to charge the Camera itself from time to time. It can be charged like shown:

(This step is not required if you're using the Sport Scope Custom Camera)

 

 

Step 2. Open the camera view finder to turn the camera ON and make sure to EXIT any Menu screens if needed.

(This step is not required if you're using the Sport Scope Custom Camera)

 

 

Step 3. Connect the provided Short HDMI Cable to the Camera and Wireless Head

You will take the small end of the HDMI cable and (1) plug it into the Sony/Custom camera, on the same side as the viewfinder. The large end of the cable will (2) plug into the blue box, into the port labeled "CONNECT CAMERA."

 

Step 4. Mount the camera head onto the tower.

If you have the below mount type, be sure to push all the way down. BOTH O-Rings should be fully inserted.

If you have the below mount type, screw the entire Wireless Camera head 360 degrees on to the threaded screw in the top pole. Make sure not to cross-thread and do not have yellow motor cord plugged into battery yet. Remember: right-y tight-y, left-y loose-y.

 

 

Step 5. Connect the yellow motor power cable to the side motor battery

Your side motor battery may look different than the one pictured below but connects the same way.

 

Step 6. Connect the 30-foot Ethernet Cable key ring to the carabiner already attached to eyelet screw.

Make sure that there is a loop on the Ethernet cable to ensure the weight of the cable is on the relief hook, and not on the Ethernet port, as shown below. Then connect to the Ethernet port as shown:

Important: Do not tamper or remove the breakaway adapter cords connected from the plate to the ports in the blue camera head unless instructed to do so.

 

Step 7. Connect the Power Cable for the Wireless Head

Plug the small end of the computer power cable to the Power port on the blue box (1), and the large end into the battery (2) (This is the black cable with the blue USB end)

Wireless Network Setup

Step 1: Connect the Router power supply to the Router and Battery.

(Your router may look different than what is pictured).

Step 2: Switch on the battery to power the router

On your Router Battery there is a toggle switch to turn on the AC outlet port on it. Switch this into the "ON" position to give power to your router. This will provide power to the router. See the picture below:

Step 3: Plug the WiFi Antenna into the Router

(Your antenna may look different than what is pictured).

Connect the black Ethernet cable from the WiFi antenna into the router port labeled “Antenna”. This port is marked with a black dot.

 

Step 4: Attach the Antenna to the Tower using the Provided Zip-Tie

Important: The filmer can be up to 100’ from the endzone tower with either antenna type. The antenna below is directional so the face of the antenna must always be directed at the filmer.

 

Step 5: Connect the Blue Ethernet cable from the Wireless Camera to the Router

This will be the Ethernet cable we plugged into the blue Wireless Head earlier. Take it's other end and plug it into the port marked with the blue dot, as shown below.

 

Step 6: Verify the Camera is Ready

Next connect your iPad to the Sport Scope wifi SSID:

1. Go to the iPad Settings > Wi-Fi > Select your unique Sport Scope SSID
2. Input your password, which can be founder on your router:
   • 
3. Verify you are connected to the wifi. You should see a blue checkmark and a message that says No Internet Connection. THIS IS CORRECT AND NORMAL.
   • 
4. Then open the Sport Scope App > Select the 3 horizontal line Menu icon in the top left > and then select Cameras. You should see endzone - Ready on the screen as shown below. This means the camera and blue Wireless head are functioning correctly with each other and on the network.

NOTE: The Cameras page is the best place to start after setting up your equipment each time to verify that the system is working.

 

Step 7: Create a New Game and Test

Next we will create a test game to temporarily test the Wireless Endzone Camera on the field to make sure everything is working:

• If you do not know how to create a new game yet, go to: How To Create and Start a Game.

Once the game is created:

1. If the controls panel is collapsed, tap the arrow to un-collapse it:
   • 
2. Test the motor controls (by default on the right hand of the screen).
3. Test the zoom controls (by default left side of screen).
4. Record a few test clips using the red record button.
   • Note: You will not be able to watch the clips back in the app from the thumbnails at the bottom of the screen unless you pay for the replay license.

Raising the Tower

1. Loosen top knob and slide pole up.
2. Once you feel the stopper, slide the pole down a few inches.
3. Lock the knob and clip the blue ethernet cable into the large carabiner.
4. Repeat with each pole to reach desired height.

IMPORTANT! - Always keep two hands on tower poles when raising or lowering for safety.

Congratulations, the setup is now complete! 

You may control the system via the iPad up to 100 feet away. Be sure to stay in the antenna's range and avoid obstructions in between the iPad and antenna such as chain link fences, large bodies of people, football sleds, etc.
