TVS TV Sensor Overview
The TVS TV Sensor detects whether a CRT (TV or monitor) is powered on by detecting the electromagnetic field
generated by the CRT's electron gun mounted in the picture tube yoke. When the sensor detects this field, the
TVS signal output (yellow wire) goes low.
The TVS detects horizontal scan frequencies up to
90 kHz.
Mount the TVS directly to the CRT with supplied Velcro™
strips, and connect to the INPUT/OUTPUT connectors
on AMX devices. TVS features include:
• Three-position switch sets the TVS detector
sensitivity.
• Green LED signal indicator lights when a signal is
detected.
• Compatible with any AMX device that accepts inputs
(AXC-INP8, CPI-16, AXCENT3, etc.).
Wiring the TVS
Connect the TVS cable to the INPUT/OUTPUT port connectors on the
AMX device. The following table describes the TVS wiring configuration.
