2.1 Scope of delivery

1 × Twin modulation module SKM 2-00
1 × DC connection cable SKZ 4-00
1 × Operator’s manual The remote control and power supply unit are not included in the scope of delivery of SKM 2-00.
They are available optionally or integrated in the basic unit of SKS x-xx.

2.2 Description

The SKM 2-00 can either be operated in a headend basic unit SKS x-xx or in stand alone mode. The twin module is used to inject two standard audio and video signals of variable sound and image sources (e.g. audio and video devices, test pattern generators, monitoring cameras etc.) via two channels in a cable system.
Audio and video signals injected via cinch connectors of the twin modulator are modulated to an adjustable carrier frequency.

3 Installation and connection

The SKM 2-00 can either be operated in a headend basic unit SKS x-xx or in stand alone mode.

3.1 Installation and connection in a headend base unit

If the SKM 2-00 should operate in a headend basic unit SKS x-xx, the twin module is plugged in the output collection field 1 and fastened with screws. Each free slot may be used. The power supply of the module is provided by the output collection field.
Before inserting or changing a module, pull the mains plug of the headends basic unit from the socket! Ground the base plate in order to avoid dangerous overvoltages according to EN 50083-1, EN 60728­11:2010 (attention: risk of fire/death)
For detailed information on the headend base unit, refer to whose operating instructions.

3.2 Single operation mode of SKM 2-00

Before installing modules, the power supply must be switched off. Ground the module acc. to EN 50083-1, EN 60728-11:2010 in order to avoid dangerous overvoltages (attention: risk of fire/death). Use the grounding screw attached to the device (see ß in fig. 2 on page 4).
The modulation module has to be fastened to a wall or onto a flat surface. In single operation mode of the SKM 2-00, the power supply is provided by the DC feeding socket (see 6 in fig. 2 on page 4). A separate power supply unit SKZ 5-00 is required for it. More units are connected by means of the DC loop-through. One DC connection cable SKZ 4-00 is included in the delivery of the SKP 2-00. Max. 4 pieces SKM 2-00 may be connected together in single operation mode.
Note
Mount the power supply unit left of the SKM 2-00 module for better ventilation.
Fig. 4 Assembly and connection of a single twin module
Audio and video sources are connected to the cinch connectors at the front (see 8 in fig. 2 on page 4). Inputs In single operation mode of the SKM 2-00, the outputs of the twin modules must be combined by means of a splitter. The input splitters (SKV 2..8-00) in connection with F-double sockets (CFA 3-00) may be used.

4.1 Deployment

During initial operation of the SKM 2-00, the output channels and TV standard must be set first!

4.1.1 Selecting wire (left or right)

To be able to program the left duct of the module, the programming selection switch must be moved to the left.
After pressing the UHF key on the remote control, a point lights up at the bottom right corner of the display of the left duct.
This shows that the modulator is in programming mode.
A test image and test sound are switched on.

4.1.2 Setting output channel

By pressing the CH  / CH  key, the desired output channel may be set.
Special channels are labeled by a 2nd dot between the digits on the display.

4.1.3 Setting TV standard

To set the TV standard, the SYS key (on the remote control) must be pressed until the
desired TV standard is set.

4.1.4 Vernier adjustment of the output frequency

If required the channel output frequency may be adjusted finely. This is done by means of the VOL
Adjustment range is +/- 4 MHz.
The variation from the CCIR channel frequency is shown on all 4 digits in the display of the module.

keys in 250 kHz steps.

4.1.5 Setting output level

By pressing the double arrow keys, the output level of the modulator twin module may be energized in 1dB steps. The set attenuation is shown in the display.
The output level is 105dBuV when "20“ is shown on display.
The output level is 85dBuV when "0“ is shown on display.

4.1.6 Setting audio mode

The module is in mono mode by default.
By pressing the audio key of the remote control several times, the stereo or dual mode can be activated for the B/G standard.
The stereo or dual mode will be active only after completing programming. The slide switch must be in center position.

4.1.7 Finishing the programming

These settings must be saved with the OK key.
To discard settings, press the EXIT key. Programming mode is ended. Test image and test sound are turned off.
After finishing the programming, the programming selection switch must be moved to the center position.
Programming of the right duct is done identically as for the left duct.
