Installation manual

Operating the Networked Video Monitoring Package
Once the cameras and modulator are connected prop-
erly, the only adjustment that must be made is on the
Video Sequencer. To make these adjustments:
• Check that the unit is switched ON.
• Adjust the interval between the two, three or four con-
nected cameras (selectable from 2 seconds to 30
seconds) by using the “TIME ADJUST” rotary control
on the far left of the back panel
• To bypass the automatic sequencing, press the first
of the two right pushbuttons to MANU (manual) mode
and then press the second CHANNEL button to move
through the camera signals.
• Once the Sequencer is adjusted, the Home
Monitoring application is ready for use.
✍
Take Note: If there is only one camera connected to the
Sequencer that camera will stay on constantly—the Sequencer
only selects between active channels. Once the Sequencer is ac-
tive, tune any TV set in the house connected to an active coaxi-
al video jack to your pre-selected Monitoring channel (between
75-80) and you should see the camera’s video signal.
9.10 Multi-Room Video
Application
This option lets the user distribute high-quality video
and stereo audio from an A/V source component (such
as a DVD changer or an A/V surround receiver) to any
TV connected to the coaxial cable infrastructure. It pro-
vides a home “entertainment channel” much like the
Home Monitoring option provides a dedicated “securi-
ty channel.”
This arrangement requires four components in this
order:
1. The Desktop Stereo Modulator (Leviton 48210-DSM):
The modulator converts the combined audio/video
composite output signal (baseband) from a DVD
player/changer or other source (such as an A/V re-
ceiver) component into a cable channel signal
(broadband) with a channel number, usually between
75-80. The A/V Component Modulator accepts an
RCA video input as well as left and right stereo inputs.
2. 3X8 Bi-Directional Video Amplifier: Covered under
Active Video Distribution in section 9.4.3, when the
Video Modulator is connected to the amplifier’s AUX
input, the “entertainment channel” from the modula-
tor is fed to every TV in the home. If, for example, the
modulator is set for channel 77, anyone changing
the channel on any TV to channel 77 can watch
what’s on the DVD player.
3. RF Notch Filter: Also covered in Home Monitoring
with Security Video Cameras/Network Monitoring in
section 9.9.8, this component essentially “cleans
out” the cable TV channel range between 75-80- so
that the assigned “entertainment channel” is kept
free of interference; it also prevents the modulator
signal from reaching into the CATV provider network.
The Notch Filter is inserted into the cable TV coaxial
feed just before the Cable In (CI) input on the 3x8 Bi-
Directional Video Module so that the cable TV signal
inside the amplifier is already filtered before the “en-
tertainment channel” is added to the cable mix.
